I've got so much carbon fiber i'm a little worried I don't weigh in, i'm glad I got the 4mm for that reason alone, let alone the durability, I think that is a total personal preferance, I know some people that like 1//8 scale off road buggies with solid chassis braces and some that have plastic ball ends for flex, I like my chassis stiff as a board and let the suspension do the work.

bballer: i am currently using the 3 racing 4mm chassis, it is working fine, stiff but really heavy. given a chance, i would get the 3mm of kfactory for a lighter weight. oh well, the G4 is lighter than the rest so who cares bout the weight haha!

whatsup G4 people.
just checking on everyone, for those that remeber me whatsup, rc alan i see you still here. i switched from G4 to MTX3 in August and was not here ever since. I love my MTX and when Team Magic finally put the conversion on the market i wanted to swich back but didnt. I was Mugen guy from day 1 when i got my MTX-2.
anyways im just saying hi to all the old people that were here from day 1 working on that binding in that steering.

Has anyone here upgraded their E-type to Evo or Mongoose?

KanaiDude

I upgraded my e-class straight out of the box with all k-factory parts, bought them off ebay which is getting a few more g4 k-factory parts these days with the revived interest in the mongoose...

jas1

Team magic make the diff, its basically the same as the rear diff with a different cap and the pulley off your oneway, the kyosho v one r front diff will also fit.
Tyres, i run ing tyres with echo medium thick inserts and ing rim, or takeoff CS tyres with same insert, and standard size 24mm rim.
always same compound front and rear.

Nickko.. Thanks for the update of the new gears... When do you think RD-Logics will have the upgrades here in the States???

hitek

Building a new EVO and installed a 3 Racing rear shock tower with the aluminum stiffener. It does not snug up against the diff bearings as well as I think it should, it leaves a little bit of play...maybe 1mm up and down. Is that OK?

rc_alan

Hitek, can you post a picture of it??? It might not be a problem, but with out seeing it... It's kinda hard to say.. Anyone else using the 3 racing rear shock tower and stiffner??? Same problems??? I know most are just using the K-factory rear shock tower and stiffner... No problems using K-factory.
