That should tell the Moderators how "smart" a few can be, and that they should enforce a common language, just so it doesn't become a culture clash here !!! It is also profoundly disrespectful to continue writing in another language in the obviously English forums, and I think it is their intent to create controversy in an otherwise peaceful community !!!! Moderators should put a stop to this before it worsens !!! Stop forcing the Spanish Language down our throats, and go back home !!!
Go home?! LOL Ignorance. Did you not realized that TomB lives in Australia? So where would home be for him? Just because we are in the USA does not mean that only people from the USA read this forum. This forum is read all over the world. Everyone is free to comunicate in any language they want. Yes, most of us speak english, but a lot of us speak more than one language. Disrepectufull to whom? You? Its not anybody's fault that you speak only one language. Nobody is forcing anything down anybodys throat, if it bothers you so much stop reading this forum, it did good enough before you showed up. Also, I dont see any controversy being created.

Again, just because you live in the USA, and just because you ONLY speak english doesnt mean only USA citizens and only english speaking people read the forum. One ignorant american thinking that the USA is the only country in the world... SMH

Maybe the native people that were in this continent should have told all the criminals that came in the Mayflower to home too... Wait, they tried but they got decimated...

I wouldn't expect a ball diff for any gas car in this decade nor the next. Like someone previously said, there is a reason why electric touring cars, 2WDs and other cars are going the gear diff route.

If your TC4 handled 5 years without a diff rebuilt, you should frame it on a museum or it should be placed in the Guinness World of Records...

Use rear carbon diffs for semis and finals.....

Hi guys.. I ran the car the whole nationals with the same diff gears and had no issues... The car ran well.. I adjusted the setup a bit from stock to make it better suited for the track.. It took me a minute to get the clutch to work awesome cause I had no experience with the new style... Other than some setup changes the car was flawless!!!

yeah if you run a softer spring i'd agree that 1.3mm hole with thinner oil would work. In general though i always setup my car with 2 hole pistons front and rear. i'm personally not a fan of running soft setups on high grip tracks though. For example at the nationals about two years ago i ran hardest xray springs front and rear on the nt1, but everyone else ran dark blues (softer than stock i think this is). I tried the softer setup and it felt really hard to drive to me. With the hard springs, my times were in line with Chris H from Kelletts, and getting quicker as the heats progressed. I think setup is a personal preference sometimes.

cross fingers the diff gear issue Dan had was isolated!!![/QUOTE]

Just make sure you have plenty of spare diff gears man!!!

my friends just test the car at Kuala Lumpur Malaysia,i think if you don't mind try the 50k diff oil that mugen gives to you,my friend said his diff work well on the standard stock,my opinion if we used higher diff,the Diff Bevel will not heat,is't just my judgment,did the diff can heat if we used the thin oil guys?
