Began restoring it from día 1, at first replaced the badly bent antenna cover for a new antenna witch came with one whole kit I built with 2.4 radio. Then I swapped the rims for some speedline I painted gloss black (eventually I plan to sell the Celica rims)

I add that I also polished the body with toothpaste and restored a missing window rubber fragment

Looks good

I fixed a dent the body had (on the zone the magneti marelli sponsor is placed) with hot water and finger pressure, now it looks better, all I need is x8 speedline sponsors for the rims and 4 Michelin decals for tires... Also, I have to look for an interior, oh, also got the PDF manual and seen it references the ta01 chassis...

Nice! I always seen the red alfa on a ta02.
Mine is the martini one on the ta03f.

Another quick question, there's a way to give it some negative camber on steering wheels? I wanted to adjust the top susp arm, but it is a fixed plastic piece!

Oh yes, red parts had the usual glass plastic, cracked motor support trying to disassemble it, had to swap it with an Aluminum part, also opted to preemptively swap the offending red parts by df-x black parts, that won't seem THAT susceptible to cracking, oh, also found the reason that red plastic is utter garbage (some noobs try to lubricate gears with automobile grease , yes, that green stuff, it seems to overdry the plastic...

Tamiya #53191 #53192 is the official hop up...

4 3X18mm turnbuckle
8 5mm adjuster
6 5X5mm ball connector
4 5mm ball nut
4 3X10mm step screw (use with stock plastic damper stays)
4 3x8mm screw (use with hop-up FRP damper stays)
1 spanner

Here is the result with the adjustable camber arms. The base is the ta02 rs. With the black gear cases from the box.

very subtile positioning of the evo Flo

that's to manage the suspense.
