Actually.... I'm wondering if the RB 2045 pipe will work with the nova?

it might work decent. if i remember right, someone locally ran one on a plus 4 with pretty good results. but if you have it give it a try. if it doesnt work good enough for you, a 053 pipe is a great match for most Novas (def the plus 4), it will have close to the performance as the Nova pipes for half the price.

Can anyone tell me what the part number is for the cross pins in the dogbones? My center driveshaft pins are starting to get worn pins and I'd like to replace them.

I have some left over from my old 808. Would those fit the mugen bones? anyone ever try xray pins? I don't really want to press them out until I know i have something to put back in that will fit.

mugc0270 center drive shafts 3x12.8mm
mugc0271 axle drive shafts 3x13.8mm

The 808 pins should fit but I have never tried so someone else might want to chime in on that one.

The 053 is a nova pipe (with many clones on the market). Last time I checked, novarossi made all of RB's european made engines and pipes.

Does anybody do the foam behind the shock bladders? What foam do you use?

I was running an RB B10, I was very happy with it, but it has 10+ gallons of fuel through it and needs to be rebuilt, I do plan on doing that shortly.

Any thoughts?

Thx,

Hey Lucas what's up? Will I see you for the next Midwest nitro round this time? A dynamite 053 is an inexpensive alternative that works very well with that motor.

Hot Bodies bladders and no foams are nessasary, i have ran foams behind my bladders for over a year and just switched to the HB bladders. They fit very nice in the cap and hold their shape after a long main while staying consistant throughout the race. IMO

My latest setup sheet for anyone interested.

Track was a bit blown out and rutted in the corners, Hard packed with a nice layer of dust on top. Buggy handled it very well, easy to drive, could push it without it getting upset.

Droop measurement is from outside hole on tower to inside hole on Arm.

goodto know they fit even though a mm larger than our shocks. I saw them on the weekend and thought they look much better than my losi foam and xray bladder.

Ill pick up some to try, thanks
