I'm going to be picking up another car - still not 100% sure which one though - G4+ (should be G4$), 720 07 or NT1.

The Mugen front one-ways work independantly of each other, but a solid one-way means as soon as you are on throttle its back to a spool only. Both give good off power steering, but the Independant one-way can still free wheel the inside wheel with on power steering, and a solid one-way cant.
Solid one-way would scrub 'on-power corner speed' in a technical course, but handy in a big flowing track.

IMO, the G4$ is not really a bling car. I understand the reasoning behind all the upgrade parts on it and I totally agree. Yes, some guys are doing just fine with just the G4S and the ED Transmission + bunch of mods, but once you've read through all 7000+ posts in the G4S thread, you can really start to appreciate the differences between the two cars. My only problem with the G4$ at the moment is the price.

One thing i'm wondering is, what is the benefit of using the spool over the one-way(when you can)? I've been told that you can use more brake with the spool, but is that the only benefit? Also, do you have to change your driving style a lot if you go from a one-way to a spool?
a 1way the front wheels spin freely off power to give better turn speed but you can traction roll easier.
a diff will give better turn in than a spool.
a spool will be harder on the drive train though (cvd's and belts)

i just read up on the malty drive
i got to try that to see what it dose
i think better turn in than a spool.

I have seen xray just released one, and I have heard that Serpent has a oneway bearing you can put in one of the belt pulleys, so you could even have a diff up front with a one-way action.
Check out rmdhawaii's links above, they are very helpful! Good work.
