I WILL ASK HIM IF HE CAN USES HIS RRR ONE WAY ON HIS MTX4

I don't think so.

Alumunium parts are always heavier than original plastic parts.

Btw, if you insist to slim down, you can shave some weights by using : titanium screws, lipo batts, titanium pivot balls, and 3mm chassis.

No, the length is different. MTX3 use wider front spool, and I think the number of teeth are different too.

its gonna be hard to be accurate, if you want to be serious and know what settings are doing what, invest in one. you can buy a cheap camber gauge that will just rest on the tires in relation to the ground. to try and eyeball toe with a ruler is for the birds, plus you will want to get a droop and ride height gauge also. the ride height will effect your camber adjustments

If you have the funds to run JP engines, you should be able to afford a setup system.
The fastest engine won't do you any good if your car is not adjusted correctly.

do u mean the car coasts well when pushed?

xrays have always had good fit and finish.

i believe the mtx will do it, but the belts are a bit tight when new
