That's awesome... After 6 years?? Wow! Let us know when you have designed and manufactured one for nitro cars... Or when you have adapted one from Awesomatix...

MTX5 and R4 new users need to re-fill diff oils sooner than "old" versions MTX4 and RRR because diffs are smaller.

Just land mine yesterday and it's already feel-faster than my old NT1. It's much more agile with better acceleration (same engine).

I'm running following:
Tire: front 32 / rear 37
Spring: front Mugen blue / rear Mugen purple
Damper oil: front 500 1hole / rear 500 2holes
Damper pos: front 2nd from bottom / rear 2nd from bottom
Bar: i-forgot :lol:
Diff: front 300K / rear 60K

The car is super agile right now at entry, but a bit lack of consistent steering in mid. My friend say I drive way-too-fast than the corner should be so I don't know if it's driver or car. But I'm VERY happy with my new car :D

mugen mtx-5

alot of people speak of these issues in this forum, i will let you know that you dont need to worry, mine havent leaked let alone broken... i think these people dont pay attention to assembly.. or they dont do a criss-cross screw pattern when assembling diffs ect..it would help if you have build a mugen before
