Tuning-focused spur for LAZER ZX cars

The Kyosho LA427-80 spur gear is specified for LAZER ZX series models and carries a 48P, 80-tooth configuration with the ZX7.5 identification. It transmits power from the motor pinion into the gearbox output and is designated for hobby-grade LAZER ZX-compatible assemblies rather than for real vehicle installations.

Mechanically, this part is used when replacing a worn spur or when changing gear ratios to tune vehicle response. Because the part is 48 pitch with 80 teeth, pairing with a matching 48P pinion is essential for correct mesh; verify pinion pitch and tooth count prior to installation. During fitting, adjust backlash to a minimal free setting, confirm shaft parallelism and bearing integrity, and rotate the drivetrain by hand to confirm smooth engagement before running.

From a tuning perspective, switching to an 80T spur alters the final drive ratio to typically increase acceleration smoothness while reducing peak speed compared to smaller spurs, depending on chosen pinion and motor specs. Use gear changes as part of coordinated tuning steps and always inspect for damaged or burr-marked teeth at swap intervals.

For LAZER ZX owners who tune gearing, the LA427-80 is a practical replacement that supports controlled ratio changes and reliable power transfer.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
An 80-tooth spur raises the final ratio which tends to smooth and sometimes strengthen acceleration while lowering theoretical top speed; exact results depend on pinion size and motor/ESC characteristics.
Smaller pinions increase acceleration further but reduce top speed; choose a pinion that balances the desired acceleration with acceptable motor load and temperature for your setup.
You may need to retune throttle curves, punch or timing depending on how the new ratio alters motor load and temperature; monitor temps during testing and adapt ESC settings if needed.
After fitting, rotate the drivetrain by hand and run at low speed initially to allow mating surfaces to settle; check mesh and noise then reassess after a short test session.
