Anyone tried them yet?? A few lads have tried the Spec R diffs but these seem to fail. Lets hope these are a bit stronger...........

Mine are still in the post. They have been built for the DB01 so there is no reason they won't hold up, for the price (28inc delivery for 2) it's a risk I am willing to take.

Built and installed mine last night, gears seem a bit meatier than the Spec R's will find out this weekend at the Torch Winter series. They wouldn't fit with the Fredricks covers tho but as there sealed shouldn't be a problem. Super smooth tho

Will do... a friend's been running the Spec R diffs in his 511 for a while and he recommended 7000 front 2000 rear from his set-up. So have used this as a starting set-up for now. (He's usually right)

By the way the track is Hi grip astro (but that will depend on if it rains)

with mine i have a problem, i can't have the belt and the gear in the same line like i can have with the ball diff. have you this problem and how you solve it ?

for the fluid i use tamiya VG 2000 to the front and 1000 to the rear and i think it's a little bit hard for front and to soft for rear, i think to usr the 1500 to the rear.

Gears are carbon plastics and if they hold to mod TC I see no reason why they wont hold up to mod offroad. Besides, using plastics saves a boatload of weight.
