I was skeptical about how it compares, and I have to admit I really don't have to worry ("as much" anyways) about the possiblities of "traction rolling", as I did with my previous car. I still will have more testing with the car (next weekend), but I am going to love the car I KNOW IT!!!
Question #1: Anybody know where I can find a Kawahara "Blade" Rear Sway Bar for the car??? (in stock??)
Question #2: Do you have to buy (in Jaco's) 0mm offset wheels for the rear, and 2mm offset for the fronts???? I noticed on the "kit" tires there is an offset for the fronts. (Or just purchase "Power Tires" and not worry about it.... & are the Japanese Shops the only ones who carry the Power Tires) The reason I ask, is today I tried, Black Star (same as "Twister"), Elligi's (Orange Box) both @ 0mm offset (all around) and they both "rubbed" against the lower shock ball cup.....
Question #3: Anybody change the lower ball cups on the shocks to "captured"???? If so, what are the part numbes, and did it change "geometry of the shock travel/length????

You need taller gearing for Revelation. The track is not that big but since traction is so high you need to run very small tires to avoid traction rolling. With small tires you need the taller gearing to compensate.
I had 17/60 23/55 on Sunday but 16/60 22/55 works good too. 16/61 20/56 is too low.

Hi all,
Is it a must to use +2mm offset rear tyres with the wc stock setup? It is hard for me to find +2mm rear tyres in Australia. What would happen if i were to use 0mm offset for the rear? uneven wear rate or does it change the handling characteristic?

If I were to use 2mm universal and 0mm tyres it would still handles like as if has 0mm universal and 2mm tyres?

You could put 2mm wheel spacers between the wheel and the wheel hex but you won't be able to tighten the wheel nuts all the way.

Will I rub ball cups if I were to run the tires that originally came in the kit (Power Tire??)

It's all the same if you don't have your EPA adjusted correctly. The ball cups will still get abused.
