I have been using the high traction chassis with a brace. The car should have came with this chassis from the beginning. Love it.

Is anyone knows the difference between H0533&H0529?
There are described to be Mugen springs f 1,8...are they both suitable for MTX5?

These are just stiffer springs then standard kit springs. From what I've seen you would want a very smoth track if you where going to try these. And you would want to try a balanced approach and try fronts and rear depending on the handling issue your working with.

Read the hudy setup book, it a great guide on car setup!

Weird question... Do you have to use the new engine mount with the new chassis?

no problemm, the two are interchangable.

for my money i would use the one piece engine mount before using the new chassis.
or both if the budget is there.
