well i now have the CS black and blue pistons. Think i am going to try the blacks first. what is a good starting point with the stock 2.0 springs? I am not sure if i am going to be running indoor or outdoor this week is the only thing.
Was thinking of starting 40wt front and 35 rear AE oil with the blacks.

Ok, so am I hearing this right? I can just stuff the 2.4 ghz antenna wire in the receiver box and don't need the plastic antenna tube? I used a reamer and was able to make it fit.
Also, my stock kit came with 300 wt silicon shock oil. Seems a bit heavy based on what I am use to with my other cars??
Thanks so much for all the help guys.

And makes no sense, I can't think of a single reason why a manufacturer would want to expose CV joints to elements...
