they take a while as they're couriered by donkey across the Himalayas then sent by homing pigeon to the hong kong postal centre lol

the magnets don't need a guide either they want to sit perfectly aligned on each other my only issue is how to mount to the body as I'm sure they will pull off the shell.

And what about toe in the front. Mine is a bit toe out. Is it suposed to be that way?
Im not quite sure of specs of the springs...from an Integy set for Zero...I used the gold ones they came with the set.
I just went by "feel" and it was closest and slightly stiffer than the D3 CS stock springs

I tried toe out in front..then read that 0 toe is what you want for drifting...so I reset it to 0

This set? #M03M-13/LB/V2
I have that set. The gold is "medium"

Do you feel a difference with 0 toe in?

This is the set I got...
http://www.integy.com/st_prod.html?p...217&p_catid=12

Billet Machined XSR7 Shock Set for 1/10 Touring Car & Drift Car (L=56mm-59mm) C23831LIGHTBLUE
...so I used these gold springs from that set...the black ones I use on my Zero S.

I believe its a little more predictable with the 0 toe..but you will have to experiment and do practice runs because the whole car gets affected with suspension tweaks

I'll be doing the same till the magnets arrive. Just won't be using a big strip like last time, it cracked the rear quarters...
