Third time's a charm? Get ready for the most radical idea ever! Here's my shot at the most perfect shock set-up for the Tamiya DT-03 Racing Fighter and the Tamiya DT-03 Neo Fighter Buggy! The search was hard ... but I found them at last!

Would love to hear what shocks you are running your DT-02 or DT-03 with, in the comment section.

The plan is actually to remove most of the DT-02 MS parts - and re-use these in another project. Already got some new parts from both Tamiya and more from GPM Racing. Coming up!

So, three set of bling-bling shocks. And I ended up using the original CVA shocks the kit was supplied with. The irony of it all. That doesn't mean I have given up. I find it a little boring to have two different DT-03's, but with the same shocks. But definitely taking a break from it now. If I doesn't find some that work just as good, or nearly as good, I will just use the CVA's. The idea is to get this up an running for the new season. With different electronics and all.

To be fair to the Hop-Up shocks from Tamiya: They work great on my DT-02 MS, my DF-02, DF-03 and TT-02B. Not sure what the quick rebounce in the rear is all about. Maybe I actually changed pistons or/and oil on the other DT-02 MS shocks. It's been several years since I last re-build those. Would be interesting to open them up and see what set-up they have. I hope I used Tamiya-oil, so the oil is colored according to Tamiya's color code. Then it should be fairly easy to set up the other shocks exactly the same.

Not sure what I will do with the GPM Racing and 3Racing shocks. Maybe some day, I will source out some new springs and pistons for it. So much easier with Tamiya. Got plenty of spare shocks and pistons in the correct size for those.
