Question 3: I applied Anti-Wear grease on the arm installation (to the suspension blocks) and fr/rr universal shaft. Is this the appropriate grease for this? The reason I ask is that this grease is very 'sticky'. I actually had to wipe off a great deal of it from the arm / suspension block installation as it was causing the arms to bind.

I recommend the new TRF VG Grease. Same stuff as MuchMore, but go with whatever is cheaper : http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/ite...oduct-id=42128

I try to minimize the amount of grease anywhere on the car. It collects too much dust and crap. The AW grease is super sticky and seems to have some metal or graphite in it.
Just a bit and then smear around and wipe off the excess, the residue will provide the lube and it will stay where it is applied.
I also keep some graphite and some McLube Sailkote in my kit which is a teflon base spray that dries non sticky. Usually spray on spur/pinions and belts and any other rub parts.
After running check for wear on dog bones, cvds, u joints and you can see where you need a bit of lube. And you can see where you put too much!!

I got my car completed this weekend. I still have to set the toe-in, camber, and test and tune my car for other adjustments but the overall build is complete. I'm sure everyone has already seen a ton of Evo 5 pics but I thought I'd share some shots that I took. I look forward to having some good discussions about tuning and setup of the Evo 5. I'm excited to see the responses from members all over the globe.

There were several left at www.ultimatehobbies.com. Giant hobby shop out of Orange, CA although their website is a little hard to navigate at times.

Have your local hobby store order one direct from Tamiya USA. If he says he can't, tell him to setup an account with us and he can. If he still won't, you should never go back to that store because he doesn't want your business.
