What's the purpose of XP-10189 (Motor Mount Flex Adjustment Plate)?

It is also a little bit hard to know what the kit contains or not.. Are the rollbars all included? Does the central cf link/turnbuckle included? Is even the part above included?

But being one piece and keyed in the chassis, you have less to worry about in terms of tweak yes and the car is much more rigid around the bulk head areas. It's a great car! And I'm not a sponsored driver.
I only gave my opinion... It's pretty normal, after a day of practice the drive train get a little bit less free... Because the flex of the chassi and tweak on bulkheads, make the car a little bit less free... And with a solid one-piece bulkhead you don't have this problems... That why I say the Xpress XQ1 drive train is very free if you compare with other cars without one piece bulkheads. Also I said "other cars" and not "all cars"... Of course we have many great cars on the market, never said the opposite!

Allows to change the car flexibility. You can stiff the car.

The kit comes with a pair of sway bars (1 x front swaybar 1.2 mm and 1 x rear swaybar 1.2 mm). It doesnt include the central turnbuckle link.

Thanks for the information.

I just ordered mine, pretty impatient to see what Xpress can propose in terme of performance compared to other touring cars.

My first concern is molding quality, then shocks. The rest seems pretty good. :-)

be prepared to ream out the holes or file a little bit off the hubs for a bind free fit.

Airwave. I don’t think you will have any issue with the quality of the shocks, they are of good quality with very minimal to no sideways moovment in the shaft & smooth movement, mine haven’t had any leakage either so far
The plastics are the same, when i built mine I didn’t have to put any shims or sand anything down to obtain the tight fit but still with free movement
the only minor issue I had with the car was the ball cups are very tight to screw onto the camber links
there have been various ways around this, I had some Yokomo ones & I used those instead & it is a lot better, I did get from express the replacement lower profile ones which are supposedly better but I haven’t fitted them yet so I can’t coment on them
good luck with the build I hope like me you will be surprised at the quality of this car

Could be interesting, but I definitely won't pay the VAT twice...

Still on the fence with this car being in the US :-( I'm local to Speedworld raceway in Roseville, CA (Sacramento) I've been running USGT and have driven the MTC1, TC7, and AWESOMATIX. I can't decide which one to get as they all feel great. The design on the Xpress really stands out. It would be nice to be able to purchase stateside. Wish Amain carried the car that way parts would only be a click away.

We have spoken before on this subject. We are the US import . Unfortunately , the market has been a slow go for TC, let alone for the Xpress car. It's is every bit as good as any other one out there. If it appeals to you, let's get it ordered up.

Having a website in this day and age is huge. Being able to shop and click is what drives sales.
