Pilot Shaft

Then it needs to be a 3 port - rear exhaust with slide carb.

Here is an example.

Thanks Tommy. I'll contact the company and see if I can find out more about the parts themselves. We might be missing out on some good stuff!

Thats not the same. Mid-Mugen just offer for the European Market a MTX-4 with the new parts. It´t not a R or Prospec!

Yes it does, if your going to race. 5 port is illegal. He said "hes going to be getting into nitro touring". Sounds like hes going to be racing.

Either way its worth noting it to him because hes also wondering what crankshaft to use so I decided to make sure I gave him all the info he needed to get into nitro touring.

http://www.nitrokb.com/mtx4/ <-----This website has all the info you'd want to know. Go to hop ups for recommended items. The car really doesn't need much as it has capability in stock form.

can not find the correct servo arm for my MTX-4 and R.
i use KO servos. do most people just take the ko throttle arms and cut them in half?

any help would be appreciated.
