ive noticed more then just shrink tubeing on my 350z....
hey guys i just got the only 350z that the rs i went to had! plus i got the stage 2 motors and suspension upgrade. well on the transmitter the steering wheel and trigger move smoother then on my older xmod supra, on the supras TX it clicks but on the 350z's TX its smooth and u can hardly feel the clicking. plus the car runs smoother at a lower speed. i am running the red motor in the 350z and it is faster then the red motor with spinbrush magnets in my supra....and at the end of the run the batteries in the 350z were cool and in the supra they are warm....is anybody else realizing these things with their 350z?

If anyone is willing to buy me a 350Z, I will be happy to check to see if the boards are different.

it isnt adjustable because if you move the batts then it interferes with the areas that the sideskirts screw into...

Well, i just bought an 350z today, i think its a ton better in person... pictures just make it look dumb, i opened it up and i havent noticed anything different, but i have noticed it handles better, and is smoother.. plus the heatshrinked antenna wire is a great idea and that it comes with extra mirrors... i guess ratshack is smarter than we think.
I have just found somthing, the motor that comes with the z, its clamshell is tiny.

i got a 350z for my gf and put my yellow sb hybrid in it and it smokes my supra with a blue sb hybrid and normal sb hybrid. something is much faster about it and it had me testing the cars electronics and the 350z seemed to have a higher current at the motor than the supra. i measured the batteries at the rear first then in the same place with the motor running then on the motor itself, i even tried using the same batteries on both cars. the 350z is getting alot more juice.

Any word if the Skyline or if all xmods from now on will have those better changes internally?
