Alright, I just recently got a new 419 kit, what is the Spring brand you guys feel is best to run on the shocks?

Yes, stock springs work. I did end up with yellow front (big bore) and the stock red ones in the rear. AE40 wt oil front and rear. Car was really dialed (not quite "on edge" to throw down hot laps) , but needs more fine tuning for 13.5. Need to work on my driving lines and throttle timing.
Play with your roll center and camber links to suit driving style and you will be set. I'll need another trip there with just focus on that chassis before I will be comfortable racing it. |

I'd be worried about something steel and tight tolerance (the shim) so close to the nicely coated shaft personally. Sounds like a sure fire way to wear off the Ti coating.
I used the double o-ring (blue) method with the 418 style (thinner) plastic guides and it when together neatly. No leaks. Yet. But definitely felt smoother. Sorry niznai, made a mistake, said 0.1mm in outdrive. And in the shocks I have a spacer of 0.2 mm and 4 mm inner diameter. Does not affect the shaft. |

Many of us are running Yokomo pink and blue. Others are trying the Takmiya springs.

I'm running the HPI silver on asphalt. Working great so far.

I haven't run this car outdoors and I'm not sure if I will be in the future. |

I've heard HPI Silvers mentioned a lot and see them on loads of setups.

Hey drt and greenpea,
When are you guys heading out to TQ again? I'm going to try and make it out there Thursday for some practice. I'm trying to get my 418 going there. Saving my 419 for Asphalt. :blush: - Jose |
