Yep...after 2 meetings on a tight indoor track I have broken nothing. The car has no obvious weakness and all plastic seems much better quality than AE B4 stuff I moved from...arms are very strong

I have heard that the AE BB pistons are a direct fit, but can't confirm that to 100%

Be good if they are, especially with the introduction on new ones.

Shame the moulding of the part is not better quality, tooling looks like it has been done on the cheap so much flash and dimensional tolerance error of 1mm between the front and rear chassis parts leaving a step where the parts meet......

bits of flashing are common on every make of car. Its no different from building a Tamiya kit where parts are still on the sprew. U just smooth them off with a blade.

not noticed any mismatches as you describe though. Got any pics?

Yeah the parts clean up nicely.....i found everything fit together nicely and certainly have no gaps on any chassis parts

Got two questions.
What would the rating on the blue springs be? (Or how to they compare to asso bb springs? Have quite a few of those)
The stock oil is #300. Is that CST? Or what WT does it compare to?

I cant find ratings anywhere for the 2wd springs. I have been running kit springs so far and trying a set up with those. Any big bore spring should fit. I use Yok, Kyosho and Losi springs with no issues.

As for shock oil, i never use the kit stuff. Better to stick with what you know.

I could not find up to date Yok spring ratings (On petitrc is from 2007) so I am using AE big bore springs which fit fine and give me a good starting point of reference and lots of options. Using AE oil too

I've got that chart too but it doesn't include the new 2wd springs.

Maybe this helps. To be honest, I think it is hard to believe that Yokomo sells identical springs with different markings.

Yeah I agree. They have them marked for different cars but to be honest, they all fit so there shouldn't be a problem.
