i am learning still and have done some searching including google. im trying to find what fitments others have that fit the t3 12. more importantly does an orca fit? will redrilling be required? i would prefer to get a nice list up together for future use for everyone.

Hi, onroad racebodies usually come undrilled and even unmarked so you have to mark your own dots onto the body before painting it. Usually all bodies with a width of 190mm fit but you should mark the axles' center and cut your own lines if needed rather than following the marked lines for the wheel-cut-outs (mainly in the rear). I use a transparent transfering foil for painting, draw 3mm squares on it and tape the drill area to have it centered very precise. |

Where is the sense in that? Buy a Protoform Mazda and up you go. The Protoform bodies are quite cheap and painting with one color is easy. |

There's not a lot of point in a used bodyshell IMO - the body post mounting points are different between TC makes, and even the XRay T2'007/8/9's are different to the T3's. Useful if you get one thrown in for free when you buy a second hand T3, but otherwise, buy new. |
