Going to be starting my FX1 build and being that parted out FX1s are even more rare than a complete one I am looking to find what parts are compatible with superjet (or other yam.) parts. Any parts feel free to throw any out there but the ones I need are:

Midshaft housing
Exhaust tubing
Steering cable
Pole
Pole bracket?
Throttle cable
Waterbox
Motor mounts
Battery box

Midshaft housing--same as roundie, diff shaft
Exhaust tubing--same as square
Steering cable--fx specific, but you can use a roundie cable with a SJ pole
Pole--fx pole is -2 compared to SJ
Pole bracket?--same as roundie
Throttle cable--same as square
Waterbox--same as square
Motor mounts--fx and blaster are the same
Battery box--same for all[/quote

Thanks doc, the waterbox and steering cable where my main concern I had assumed that the SJ pole would work with an SJ cable just wanted to be 100% before purchasing. Also...will a stock RN waterbox fit or not?

it'll fit..not as good, but I did dry fit one when I put my ski together...


your ski has a steering cable, b ut I dont know how good it is.....it DID move though...maybe pull it off and lube it up..

I have a line on a SJ pole locally so I may go that route, so Ill probably end up swapping it for a SJ cable.

Another question:
It uses a RN midshaft housing so maybe it uses the same coupler cover? But, it uses a different midshaft (different length?) so it might use a different coupler cover?
 

Flash-FX

No Square..No Round..FX-1
Here's a shot of the pump end. (I think I posted this before...Sorry for the repeat). The SJ cable is longer on both ends, More travel.

So does the pump have less throw? If so, and I put in an SJ pole and cable would I then have problems with the cable binding/stretching?
