I would imagine that if there is a discernible demand for stripped out Tamiya's that a dealer will be selling Taigen Gearbox Friendly Gearbox mounting plates quite soon. o-
Capitalism dear boy, Capitalism. :D
I do believe ETO sell engineered gearboxes for Tamiya Tanks, Pricey but lovely quality.

I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

At axels modellbau you can get the original spare gearboxes, but the price is quite steep. Will dklm gearboxes fit the Tamiya tank?

I remember seeing someone installing Taigen gearboxes in a Tamiya before, you should be able to use just about anything if you create mountings to suit.
