1. How frequent we need to change the diff oil n shock oil(Big Bore 16mm)????
2. Shock oil should be allround or different btween Fr n Rr?

[S.Charlie]

Hi Mie,

Shocker oil change depends on track. if there,s jump on track usually
use higher grade oil. example 80-100. if track like titiwangsa usually 40-50 will do. This is the spec i use and it works well

I thought every driver has his own defination of diff oil but 3:5:1 is my type for beginners.

I think it all depand on the car design.If your car design understeer,then put lighter oil,and heavy oil for oversteer.
The driving skill also!

I was thinking of 5000 front,10000 center,3000 rear.to start for my car

Wow don't you think it's a bit too heavy for 10000 in the centre.and the rear up to 3k ah you must be a very pro driver bro.

Think it's a good thing to try bro as you never try you will never know.I really don't know what is sts powerband.but the ratio of 5:7:3 i heard before as many people have different handling capabilities.Please let us know how is the reaction so that we can learn at the same time too.
