sorry to disagree... I was actually a bit shocked to see how soft the metal is on the kyosho screws... and yes I use the right tools (EDS+Hudy), and yes they're recent and yes I work on many other cars in parallel (Brandon can confirm :P). The RB6 hardware is barely better than the shockingly soft durago screws...

If you want BiC hardware, see Mugen or Tony's. Very disapoointed about this aspect of the RB6. Then again, the rest is top-notch

PS: Brandon did you ever get that kit or not?
