Maybe this is an updated version with the new LW suspension right in the box. Or it´s an 415 Surikarn edition.

#3677

Wow, "refined" version....limited too...nice
Or...a Worlds edition maybe a World Champion Replica..if they win that is.

Isn't all they did was swap the arms from an evolution and bolt them onto a 415?
That what all themags say...

It would be nice if the car was more compatabile with 28mm foams.

....64/800 yen is one STEEP price for a car though!

is there a setup sheet available for the 415 with new suspension?
#3683

6800 yen is roughly 550$$. Not bad for what you get.

Anybody see the spool coming out from TIR. Team Orion has it on the home page. Looks pretty trick. It would be kind of nice to have 4 wheel brakes.

I have been using the LW suspension for 5 races or so now and I am thinking about going back to the old suspension. The new arms and uprights are just too fragile. These are things I've never broke before and now they are breaking on a regular basis...

Not exactly big crashes either. The old set survived much bigger crashes before. The worst ever happened was bending the alumnium block. Even that only happened when I had spacers under the blocks. Once I switched to the evo3 blocks I no longer had problems.
