Bingo, drive what you are comfortable with.

I run factory springs, they dont rub either. Oh noess

The rears rub on my truck... but not the buggy. The noise is kinda annoying... but you dont hear that mess when youre on the drivers stand.

Im glad Bob Barry convinced me to spend some time on inner shock limiters... cause it really made a huge difference with how the buggy handled (jumping/landing). Even the potholed parts of the track were whatever.

Heres hoping for droop screws on the B5!

hrmmm........ masami never had BB springs.

I would say that yes they are worth it. I have the tapered ones on my car and they really helped the car handle better in the woops section at my local track. I did not notice the difference on the larger jumps but definately on the small stuff. The cost is a little high but you must consider GHEA is not one of the large manufacturers and are not producing large volumes, therefore cost is higher. Even with some automated equipment I would not want to produce and sell these for under $20

Not to get into this whole big bore discussion but you must consider that Associated will be releasing big bores in the next couple months. If you are like me and need all the new s-it as soon as it comes out then switching to these now might not be the smartest investment but that's your call

Masami is Android #15 tho. His shocks could have ball point pen springs and he would still post in the top 3...

The angle of the bend, the length of the arm, and the wire diameter make a difference on sway bars too.

Sorry gotta correct you on something here.....


Masami was designated #15 but he laughed at the engineers and then used his feet to write Android #1 on the white board.

Told ya to trust the car, it could handle it

I actually tested BB spring and the stock green and brown springs. I thought the car jumped better with the stock springs.

This adjusts leverage points... not the rate of the wire.

Not debating that one bit. Wire type/diameter defines the rate... just as it does with coiled springs.

I was faster with the stock springs too but I had the idiot move of the century the other day and threw out the container holding my AE springs, collars and bottoms LOL.

So I'll give the BB another weekend hahaha

Who would win... Masami or Chuck Norris?

omg if we even think about that, earthquakes could happen.....
Please Dave... Don't endanger innocents like that!

All i could think of when i read this was a Godzilla style slo mo battle between two 'giants'... Norris and Hirosaka. Downed powerlines, flyin sparks and all...


... i think Kinwald was wheelin the B4.1 as camera car too...
