IMO, it's a step in the right direction visually.
I am sure the car has been tested lots - and the results will be shown to all!
Are the anti roll bar mounts redesigned on the '14?
I don't like the two fiddly pieces the bar sits into on my '13. They can fall off easily when taking the bar off for front differential works and searching for them can be a
moment just before a race lol
But I do understand sometimes parts do have to be compromised around everything else.

Okay, I see your point. BTW, Reflex Racing is taking pre-orders in the states.

After taking time actually reading through this thread I've come to one conclusion. There is no doubt that I want this. Been driving Xray since the first T2 in '06 and love them. If the conversion kit becomes available that will work too. Chassis and bulkheads will do it. Looks like the suspension arms and top deck would finish the package from the T413.

I've decided to fit the original style rod ends with the kit ball ends to allow more room between it and the wheel when using a a few shims;
And yes, I have added some Orange bling option parts

I bought a T4 when it was relaesed and I love it. So much that I couldn't wait and bought a 2nd T4 for VTA. Now I am thinking I should have waited as the only thing I would like it to carry a bit more speed on the big turns at the end of the straight.
I don't think I will be making the big jump to a full T4 so what can I change to mimic the corner speed of the T4? I was think that the chassis might have the biggest influence and the RSD chassis seems to be an affordable upgrade.
Also, I see that in high grip situations, stiffer arms are recommended? Would changing to the graphite arms help? I love the car and it is performing great on our small track but every little bit helps right?
Just looking to get close to the '14 performance as others are without having to buy a new kit. The new suspension holders look nice but I am not sure that they add any handling improvements other than consistency in my opinion.

Although I've built mine, I going to try it at my local asphalt track next week (weather permitting) so I can better compare it to my current T4.

Here is a tip to cut the time of swapping out swaybars. Also a way to keep all the mounts from falling on the table or ground resulting in lost time and lost pieces.
Step 1. remove stock screws,(discard over the shoulder) insert longer screws! You will never have to fiddle with the mounts again.. long screws will all you to loosen quite a bit,turn the top mount 90 degrees and remove and insert new sway bars instantly!
Process now takes less than 10 seconds!
Simple but very effective= OPTIMIZED!
