Me neither. The first thing I change is that block. the car has more low speed steering with the 1 block...

Here are some updated pics with the Carbon stuff from RPM1968 as well as the radio tray from SNR. Everything looks top notch.

Default Bladders and Werks clutches

Did I read here, or maybe the 6t thread, about using some better bladders than the stock Mugen? I think it might have been Hot Bodys. Can anyone confirm this?
Also, does anyone have any experience with the Werks Pro clutch and the Power clutch, that could explain the difference between the two? I know the physical differences, I'm talking about feel and ajustability.
Thanks
Brian

I've used them and the bladders hold up very well compared to the softer Mugen bladders. HB o-rings fit also but never had any problems with the Mugen rings.

I have used with success the OFN41013 bladders. They are tight and firm and last for ever.They are also cheaper 7.29$, than hbs67515 which are 12.78$.
You can also fit within them those filters for hand made cigarrettes and experiment with dampening

Have any of you revisited the mugen bladders, I have just replaced mine and the new,ones felt different not as soft as the old ones, might just be age and the oil but If i remember they always were soft even new, can't say the same now though felt much better

I just rebuilt mine with mugen bladders, and they were quite stiff compared to the old ones... But it's nice to know there are alternatives

Default Truggy Shock Towers on the buggy

Hi

I recently finished my MBX6 buggy and I am very happy with it, but recently I read that some pro drivers use the rear shock tower of the truggy in the buggy and I wanted to ask if someone tried that and if the results are positive... I just want to ask before purchasing anything.

Is it only the rear tower or has someone used the from tower too.

Thanks

Default 44t?

Hi guys,
short question
i am my way to prepare buggy for 45 min race plus some qualification
i found a 44t conical gear which i can use for front or rear diff.
right now i have standard 42(front)-46(center)-42(rear)

what will happened if i will replace front or rear one for 44t?

is that worthwhile?
