I'm using all 6 gears in the mugen diff. I just tried using the Capricorn Composite Gears to save weight... I didn't like the results so far, The diff action got way too light even when using 100k or 200k in the front. It actually felt like 30k when using the standard mugen gears inside. I need to play around with it a little more.
I'm just trying to get my car close to the legal weight limit... I'd prefer loosing most of the weight within the drive train....

I'm going to do further testing this season.
Pass you soon...

Hey man, I am using Diff-lock in my front diff with Capricorn gears. Since the NT1 diff is so small it might simulate the same problem as the mugen diff being too big for the gears. The diff-lock (from OFNA) feels like 100kish from when I was running the MTX-4R with 100k.

I did get a tuning run in late last Friday with it, thanks to some spare parts from friends (and tuning help because I still can't tune worth a damn), what almost floored me was how stupid easy it is to drive, it's not like my G4JS is hard, just the MTX4R seems 'overly' easy.

Got to do some racing with my MTX4R last night, I felt it did rather well, posted some of my best times, it does well at my track.
Downsides, I broke a rear belt during the final, although somehow my lap times did not drop off anywhere near as much as I would have thought?, also I'm unsure about the front spool when it comes to tyre wear, I seemed to have a lot of front tyre wear.
