2. Edit RC Edit
3. I believe the Tamiya fits fine
4. Yes, Jet racing, although they dont work so well on the newer diff pulley, as there designed for the older wider pulley

I would recommend getting the diff balls and thrust balls from ACER Racing though. It has always made my diff nice and smooth on previous cars, so I have just ordered some for my Cyclone as well.
And with Diff protectors, I went into a shop just yesterday and bought a Team Atlas set for the TA05 and it fits really nicely, almost as if it was made for the Cyclone (i have the narrower pulleys on my Surikarn Edition) so perhaps give that a go.
I had a look on the Edit Website - the parts look very nice for the Cyclone. Any idea of an online store where I could buy these parts as there is no distributor here in Australia for them??

the kit doesnt have a part number as of yet.if your LHS would like to put in the pre order they can just call it in.it will have a part number on the invoice for future purchases. i usually dont put kit part numbers into the system until it is ready for release.i should do it earlier to make things easier.

Is it exactly the same as a standard Cyclone's diff?
