M2C Racing Kyosho TKI3 chassis w/skid plates
I'd paste the link, but I can't get it to happen.

Theyd have to fix the lower arms first though, if the only thing holding the wheels straight was those flimsy things....disaster

Is there a "Goto" setup for the TKI3 that is a good base/all around setup? I like starting with popular setups and then tweaking to my track and/or liking! Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Try Kyosho America site in factory support you will find setups for different tracks.

Agreed, I have had the extended plates since before they were released and it does still hit the chassis. It doesn't hit them as bad but it does still hit. You could probably get away with using a drimmel and just taking a bit of material away, but drilling is much faster and easier. This is what I will also do with the RTR chassis as they have NO cutouts compared to the other chassis.
Thanks guys. Out with the drill on the new chassis

I put a second chassis on my car and did not drill this one. I had no issues with it stalling the engine. I can see marks on the clutchbell but it has not shut down the engine. I can't see the clutch bell causing that but more the flywheel doing it.

Question about diffs
I have the TKI3 Readyset version and am rebuilding them. I see on the TKI3 readyset version there is a provision for a second set of (side gears) where the TKI3 kit version comes with these gears. What is the difference? LSD or posi? What would I benefit from adding the second set of gears. Thanks.

The extra set of spider gears makes the diff a lot more durable. Although I never ran the ready set version, I've heard people at the track complaining about the internal gears stripping. I've never experienced stripped internals on my TKI3 nor have I heard of that being a complaint on the car. I would imagine it also would affect the differentialing action since there are less parts cutting through the fluid. Get the other spider gears.

Thanks for the replies guys, I am going to the LHS today for fluids and may see if they have the parts to add the extra set. If they don't, I will upgrade the diffs when I get a better more powerful engine combo.

easiest driving mp9 ever
or plethora of setups
look for setups that are similar to your tracks , remember the pro setups are for fast driving , car doesnt drive the same if not up to their speed but do your best :-D

Get the extra gears, I am building a new kit and I am going to use the ready set dog bones for center diffs so I ordered diffs from Dollar Hobbyz first thing I did was to add the extra internal gears in the diffs. When only running one set under a load they are not as effective, think of the difference between a posi unit in a bigger car and a one wheel spinning unit on your grandma's car. Yes it works, but not the same performance wise...
