Front One-Way

Would anyone happen to know what are the differences between the SP Front One-Way (FMW28) and the original one that comes with the kit (FM513)?

Thanks.

The difference is that FMW28 seems to be a lightweight version and the one-way bearings are better quality Have a look at kyosho.de you will see the differences.

Can I use the majority of the setup on the Evolva M3 (non-evo) or is there something else I should start with? Running on smooth fresh paved track with soda spray so traction should be med-to-high.

Here are the 2 links

http://www.kyosho.de/?page=shop%2Fpr...&search=fmw-28

http://www.kyosho.de/?page=shop%2Fpr...&search=FM-513

If you are looking for other parts, use the enrty-field POWERSUCHE.
For example: FM-513 or FMW-28

Correction from my original statement:

The new suspension mounts allow the upper arm lengths to be shortened by 1.5mm each side allowing for improved steering response. The track width should/can remain unchanged though.

Sorry guys. This is kind of an unrelated topic...

Out of curiosity, what ever happened to Delta Inc. and their XP4? Are they still around?

I've been out of the game for awhile.

Thanks

Hi guys, does anyone know where I can acquire empire front belt tensioner or anyone selling 1? Does it fit the m3 evo? I've been facing front belt stripping with the car. Anyone has other solution in fixing this issue? Anyway all the pulleys are new and I strip at least 2 belts every gallon of fuel.
