Yeah, I would be interested in the new version of the SV10 2. I still have the original with lots of mods... I got the narrow chassis, the composite bulkheads, all the aluminum stuff...and the car is awesome. I've heard the new version is quite an improvement.
My setup is :
Front camber 1.0 degrees
toe out 0.5
Integy Green springs with 60wt oil
Caster setting all the way forward
Upper roll center mount
Forward hole on the Knuckle
Rear Camber 1.5 degrees
Stock rear toe
Inner lower shock mount
Integy Yellow springs with 60wt oil
Antisquat all the way back
Yokomo 5G Belted tires
Yokomo Firm inserts front Medium inserts rear
Yokom 10 spoke 6mm offset wheels ( allows max width)
Also took off the stock front body mounts and relocated HPI body mounts on the front bumper.

hehe the new version is very very stiff a chasis no good on parking lot racing where the surface might be bumpy ... but on carpet and smooth surface it rocks !

*I didn't realize this was such an old thread. Somehow it showed up in a recent feed....
I used to have an SV10 BITD. The folks who I used for parts were back in Massachusetts I think.
I'd love to see more Kawada support in the US. It's tough when the touring car market is so flooded with cars. I've since started racing VBC, but I would consider another Kawada if US support was decent.
