Stick with the regular sealed gear diff or wait for Kawahara comes out with a negative diff!
Just my $0.02

tightened like that is how i found it to work best for me at ohio
it still gave me enough diff action that it was much easier to drive than the solid rear
with the solid rear i couldnt get into throttle early enough but i didnt know how to set the car for it up well either i didnt have enough practice to make it work
kinda like using 50k or 100k in a gear diff it was tighter than using 30k

I got all the hop ups available from justrc's site, quality is top notch and fitment is perfect! I dont know if you have ever need to dremel things to make it fit, but not in this case! everything fits perfect! kind of like plug and play! he he
the items that I think will work really really good are:
1. front sway bar holder, the stock plastic one flex too much when you are doing highspeed sweeper(ya know when one side is bottoming out and stopping by the downstop set screw). I have the aluminum one on my mtx2 and I can feel the difference while driving it!
2. rear brake cam brace with blade type sway bar, I know Manticore has to upgrade the stock sway bar to 2.5mm one to gain more rear end traction so if this one can be adjustable it will be so good and easy to dial the car in.
3. as usual the aluminum mid block is also very good.
4. CVD of course, you have heard enough of the dog bone poping out!
5. Aluminum Hex wheel adaptor.
I also have all the light weight stuff for the drive train, I guess besides the 5 items I list above the rest are just personal preferences! and since the car is already so light weight I dont think adding a few aluminum pieces will over kill it!
Just my $0.02
