I'm interested in getting the Yokomo MR-4TC Mini or the Xray T1 Mini. I have not seen either in person so I was wondering if both are roughly the same size.
Do any of the smaller 1:10 bodies (ie tamiya mini cooper) fit on them?
What bodies are available for this chassis besides the 1:12 yokomo body thats offered?

Yokomo also do a VW Beetle RSi for it, Tamiya Mini bodies fit (as long as they are 225mm), as do HPI bodies.
I had a NC/Tozai Toyota Supra and Nissan R33 Skyline on my T1M.

Thanks for the links guys.
If I'm not mistaken it seems only the M02-M tamiya bodies work which include:
Eunos Roaster (Miata)
Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint
Are there any other tamiya bodies that work?
I have one more question . . ..
Can you adjust the wheelbase on these chassis that I mentioned?

You can adjust the wheelbase on the Xray, not sure about the Yokomo.
Kamtec here in the UK also so some tasty designs (coming soon, a Saab 99 Turbo). http://www.alphawebdesigners.co.uk/kamtec/

Wow, first HPI releases the 'stang and the Panthera, now this? How many bodies can I fit into my apartment?

On the xray site it says the wheelbase is 208 with an adjustablity of 9mm. So is that 9mm less to 199 or 9mm more to 217mm or something in between?

Ites more, to 217mm. RCCA put a HPI EK Civic on theirs, and the wheelbase of that body is 225mm.
Another option is a company here in the UK are doing a mini conversion for the TC3 and NTC3. :) I'm going to get the TC3 conversion.
