I have a 415 comming next week, but I was wanting to order some spare parts too. Which suspension blocks come with the car, and what do the other blocks change. I am assuming toe in, but do they also change antidive/kickup? Which blocks do what? Thanks

hey harddriven RC. no offense taken. it's all good baby.

btw im not gay. i like the pink because i just look up to my favorite RC drivers, Masami Hirosaka and Atsushi Hara who both run pink on their cars HELL if i cant drive like them, might as well try to make my cars look like theirs.

thanks for the guys that came to my defense too appreciate it guys.

now.. back to this awesome car the TRF415!

I have a Pink MYO2R aswell, the only issue i have with it is that certain wheels with certain ribing catch the arms/hubs. Speed Minds rims hit. Tamiya wheels are ok.

Ive pretty much retired my MYO2R now that i have 415.

All the blocks come with the car....
And yes they change toe in, Antidive and so on is done using shims under the blocks like on the 414M, etc...

Have you tried the sway bars out on the tech car? and is there any other way of mounting them in the front besides down on the lower shock mount on the arm.

Im hoping I will get some soon out of stock

just a few quick questions...

does the 415 kit come with rubber or metal shield bearings?

are the screws hex or phillips/stainless or steel?

are the turnbuckles steel, titanium or aluminium?

In general how much does the car weigh with batteries, motor and electonics? How is the wieght distribution?

Post 415 tests

For those testing their 415's at Tamiya America this weekend, what changes were made to find more steering & less body roll?

(yes, I have currently must "bench race" because I don't have the car yet )

Here is the new version of the Tech Racing MY02

Is that reminding me something ???
By the way it is much cheaper than a 415.
