so if i used the stock gearboxs id have to find a way of holding the bearings in better then shim it.
ill have to experiment i guess

everycar and every gear is different mate. i still think that even with the alloy boxes you could easily shimm the diffs a tiny bit away from the pinion for more freeness, im putting the stock boxes back on when i next rebuild my car for a comparison. alot of things have changed on my car since i got the square boxes id like to step back n try it all with the original boxes.

Hey guys, see alot of you use the Futaba S9550 low profile servo. How do you like it? enough torque and good speed?

managed to improve the drive train with out the shimming and by keeping the alloy gear cases. Because i just loved the stiffness (and redness 
) i decided instead to work on the plastic outer case. Just dont a similar thing the tc3 drivers do inside their gearboxs and its made it veeeeeeeeery good , it just spins and spins and spins, becasue its incredibly light ( drive train ) ive got it too 8 second spin count, may not seem high but im running lightweight parts through out...
Only thing i havent purchased are the Ti axles.. anygood? someone told me they arent worth the purchase as youll find they wear alot quicker then the steel ones. anyone?
I have a vid of the drive train, but no online space, can anyone help?
thanks

Yep!!
Futaba 9550- I have one that I just took off my car and it works awesome!! It already has the corner of the ear trimmed and the wire shortened. I used it for about 3 months (approx 3 race weekends). Only reason I changed was because Robert from KO has been helping me out so I bought another 2123 for my EVO3SE. I was gonna put it on the for sale forum but if one of you guys wants it I'll take $50 shipped. Paypal or USPS money order.
BTW- Speedtech has some pretty cool Square hop ups for the EVO3. I wouldn't expect them to last very long. The best ones are the center braces and the aluminum rear hubs.
