  Might have a good look at your gt40 body before I order one. Do you know if its a wide body or narrow ?
  
  The only good i-waver body I’ve found so far is the skyline gtr. The Benz and Ferrari 355 bodies need to have dremel work and possibly hair dryer treatment.

  They work fine witht he iWavers though kevsta 😉
  
  I think the wheel offsets etc used by iWavers are ever so slightly different to the Kysho ones.
  
  For the record the F355 and Benz iWaver cars run fine out of the box 😉 had 3 here the other day 🙂
  
  And yes bearings are cheaper and arrive in 2-3 days from ausmicro.com 🙂

  That one bushing Mocky doesn’t spin, it’s a ‘dead’ bush doesn’t do anything!
  
  Me thinks I’ll be ordering a Carerra GT RSN 😉

  i noe it doesnt spin, thought it would make a more complete set so u dont have to go searching for ur old plastic bushings it u accidentally throw them out, or it would be a good spare to have on hand.

  is’nt there two plastic bushes? both opposite the drive side of the diff? Mock; got like 60 of those bushes if you need a spare 1 or 10… I agree with you though, it does look better with bearings visible all round, even if it would’nt actually do anything for performance. Some aftermarket sets come with 8 (I dont mean the Monster/Overland sets!), which can really confuse newbies. (“where does the 8th bearing go?? Help!”)

  oh yeah forgot to mention i got myself a yellow gt4o shell from toyeast.
  
  it looks so kool!
  
  the detail and build quailty surpasses the original iwaver bodies by far. everyone who had a look at it was impressed by it.
  
  it does have its down sides, its sooooooooo low that a rear friction shock can NOT be used on the car. if you want o cut out the rear window it would fit.
  
  but im happy with it :smiley16:
