Thats true they are cheaper but I see the internals on the ofna diffs break all the time. Kyosho diffs hurt the pocket more but are bullet proof as long as they are shimmed right, and at the track durability is a must. But if you have had GL with them I say Great
Quality parts ofton cost more and not all Kyosho parts are cough cough Quality but in this case it is true.
I am all for less expensive parts but finding quality cheaper can be kinda hard but thanks for the input

On-road puts a much higher load on the diffs than off-road . Off-road lets the tires slip , where on-road doesn't. I have used the kyosho straight cut gears for some time and the internals have held up very well.

Well, the DM-1 ate yet another spur-gear... 
Anyway, gonna order a few more. When you guys order gears, do you tend to experiment more with SG gearing or just go up or down on the CB? Thanks.
(just wondering if I should maybe try 45/49 for ex. in addition to picking up maybe two each of 44 and 48..)

After setting up some fast laps with my belt GT, I put it back to 1-speed and modified for rally (happens on parkin places), a short vid just for fun, ok
Sorry it's a bit shaky. It's a lot of fun.

I'm playing with a DM-1 right now to see how they are. I have never run one and I'm curious about them. I'm looking at 60k front and 20k rear to start. The guys in Washington are running very thick front.(200k) I think. That car is very different and I'll keep posting as I find out more about it.
