eddie10... Not sure if you are running mod or 19t or stock.. But here are some suggestions....

For Stock most everyone is running between 50-70 wt in the front with either a 1.1mm or 1.2mm 3 hole or 2 hole piston. And 20-40 in the rear.. Depending how much you want the car to dump onto the front end the lower you go in the rear but watch out it get's very steery... i would start at 60-30 and go from there...


Modified and maybe 19turn... I currently am running a 50 wt front with 2 hole 1.1mm piston and 40 wt 3 hole 1.1mm piston in modified... This has been good but i would like to play with heavier dampening and bigger hole pistons and see what that do's...

As for Tires.. Yes we are still using the same tires front and rear.. Right now with Jaco's new line of tires the best combination for me is Pinks all the way around. But stock you might want to try dbl pink, Megenta or pinks and see wich one suites you

Hope this helps..

I will be experimenting with installing a "Set Screw" In the side of my diff nuts to see how it works....... hmmm--might work?

I'll keep you all posted as to the results

Thanks Mike!

Where do the 3 hole 1.1mm pistons come from? I thought all the Corally pistons were two hole.

This is a hot idea. Locally, we've been cutting the 1/12th scale nut down to fit. But the set screw !! Brilliant.

Thanks,

Jacko (of the crunchy diff)

Hey, does the PHI come with the diff nut wrench or do you have to buy that seperately? Is it worth buying?

a 9mm open wrench from craftman would do , you can get it at sears

I'm guessing then it doesn't come in the kit?

No, but its inexpensive and super kool. Worth the money.
