I finally got all my parts together and put together a front diff. I built it with all the HPI parts, instead of the $24 HB outdrives 
I used 3.1mm of shims on both sides. Also, I found that if you use the Pro4 diff outdrives, you will want slightly longer bones, as the stock HB ones interfere with the outdrive rings. If anyone has any 46mm universal shafts (the Tamiya ones), let me know. Thanks.

Other than that, everything is stock out of the box.
Hara said that there is a Hara and Surikarn Edition Cyclone. Out at the end of april(he is not sure though because he said that he did not work on this project).
MUCH MORE Racing is also here. Lots of MMR goodies!
Kyosho is here with thier new ride-lots of red bling. Looks really nice. TEAM MMR are all here practicing.
Race: Thailand International Touring car Championship 2006 February 16-18.

I too did all of that just to save $10. Just get the OEM diff halves as I eventually ended up doing anyway.

Just finished a race and managed to get in the A main with my cyclone. I love how it handles, now I need to get my motor faster.
Anyways I had the TiR CVD and after the race it is still straight like new. If i had the stock Aluminum ones I would probably have gone through 10 sets of them.

Nope, I don't mind at all. I am pleased you like my photos.
Nice animation too!
