Hi,
Eventually built the E4 RS and can't wait for it's maiden race this weekend in the first round of the UK's STCC championship. Can't wait, the car's been great is testing so far!
Has anyone tried different piston setup's in the shocks? I would like to run 3-hole pistons instead of the standard 2-hole, but can't find any optional spares. Anyone aware of other makes that will fit? I've tried the tamiya pistons, but they are slightly too small.
Thanks for everyone's help,

For me, the best are 40wt and kit piston, in all 4 shocks. I tested, this weekend some things, the new shocks, from RS, are better than the originals E4, the nylon pulleys work well, but in the center axle is best the alu pulley, because with the nylon, the belt jump from pulley.
The top deck, from RS is more flex, and work very well with the original chassis, and the last test, is the overdrive like touring gas car, I tested a 34T pulley in front, from Xray, this change front ratio to 2, i feel the car more aggressive, and a little more fast into the Slow zone of track, no differences in speed, and more consumption of front tyres, but i need some more packs, for clear conclusions.

Thanks for everyone's support with the question on shock pistons, some good suggestions to try out.
It'll be good to see a couple of other E4's racing this weekend, look forward to it. Will try and meet up on Sunday.

Need pinion size ?
Will be running a 503002-C1 - 1/10 E4FS/C1 Rubber Tire Spec Electric Touring Car. It's the E4FS Rubber Conversion with (convertable) front 1 way option.
I plan on running it on a large outdoor asphalt track.
Also will have the following setup on the car:
- Mamba Max speed
- Trinity Duo 10.5 BL motor
- Orion 4800 Lipo
- 110T spur 64 pitch
- Internal ratio is 2.0588
- Tires are Jaco greens (Rubberz)
My question is what size of pinion do I need for a 10.5 BL (19T) motor using a 110T 64 pitch spur gear ?
Thanks

Hey Marcus.J
I was thinking of getting the similar car from Wolf Hobbies. The E4 FS/C1. I plan on running the car on rubber both indoor AND outdoor. What do you think? Do you think this is the right car for what I want to do?
Thanks man.
