X gear spings
I ran my 502x on wet grass/astro at the weekend with red front and white rear. Standard pistons with 35cwt oil front, 30cwt rear. It was absolutely awesome. Now invested in more springs.

Very intresting, thanks a lot for sharing!
What's the advantage of these springs VS the Tamiya one? I heard about them more than one time but don't know much about them. Bye WWD |

Slightly bigger diameter spring which does not rub on the shock body.
Also has a better coil for more consistent action. I like them i use the larger sized 201 spring retainer on the bottom Lee

Springs
Also, the Losi 22 spring retainers are a perfect fit.

Any Kyosho dealer, try JE Spares & Inside Line (although I don't think either list on their sites but Kyosho UK do a fantastic job of dealing with spot orders)

Yellow and reds are a must to have.
Gold is also a good option, just as Marco says

Rc Champ as per the first post, 1008 yen
Their website is all Japanese but send them an e-mail and they are very helpful and have good english too. Dont think anyone brings them into the UK, LMR should I reckon! |
