Marcos: I would recomend using stiffer rear springs. The 05R has great traction as it came from the factory. Try to install a one way, it would help you a lot on the steering. Since you are going to race on a high traction surface, adjust the cluth so it can engage at higher RPM (about an aditional 2mm from factory spec) this will create dramatic launches exiting the corner.
Good luck!

people have told me that the FW05R is low geared meaning that belt driven cars will beat it in the straights is this true or can it keep up with the belt driven cars in the straights

GP10
I have a Kyosho Super GP10 and I would like to know if the FW05 parts and hop ups would fit in my old kit? Like front/rear differentials, upper chassis plate or radio plate.... They sort of have some similarities.

it's about halfway down the page.
The price listed there is 27,720yen but I was only charged 26,400yen when I ordered. EMS shipping was 8,300yen.

I have fitted the Mugen gears and all you need is the clutch bell and the 28 or 29t 2nd gear!! The engine needs to go forward a bit so you need to lengthen the mounting slots slightly.
The mesh is not the same so make it real tight and let it bed in over a heat. After that it flys. I havent had it on the track yet but will Sunday.
Cheers
