I mainly run Byrons, but I will be trying Tornado Fuel as I have heard good things about it. Someone said possibly Byrons coming out with an even better fuel?:confused: I been running 30% mainly until I was told at my LHS they didn't have any left. Had to step down to 20% and still using the stock OS Turbo P8 plug with flawless performance. With the new clutch setup there surely was nothing to complain about. Just need to pony up for something faster though. :smile:

Got mine on the weekend!;)
So i'll be getting it on the car soon to try it out!
I'm not sure i want to scratch it up though, as it is a work of art!
Great machining work!!:)

Any of you guys run the Ninja combo in the Mugen? I was thinking of that other setup as well as the Novarossi. I have seen a Ninja run though and at first it did seem to have great top end and ways faster than my setup. However when I placed my car on the track it seemed as if my eyes had played tricks on me, or maybe with the pressure on the other guy he didn't do as well as his practice laps.

**5 minutes later**

Checked my LHS site to see the Nova is about $400. :ha: I may just go with the Ninja setup for the $325 instead. It has proven itself though.

HarKonnenD 01-20-2008 10:41 PM

I just can't seem to make up my mind. LMAO Well I still have time. :smile: Found a site that has it with the Cereamic bearing for $329.99 - that's a price I can go for. Isn't the RB R3 based off this motor or so?

MTX4JR 01-21-2008 10:10 AM

Can anyone post advise on what options are out there to lighten the drivetrain on the mtx4. Also what sites can i go to.:tire:

What ira said.

BTW: I have now finished my 3rd race on my YBSLOW aluminum front spool. It isn't new anymore, but it is holding up quite well.

started building my mtx4r yesterday and have a question. I put the rear diff together and was wondering if im suppose to use the small little o rings that go in the bevel gears? I know in mugen offroad cars your not suppose to use them. Another question, the small washers that go behind those small o rings were very hard to slide over the crosspin shafts. Anyways I put the diff together and used the 10,000 fluid it it seems very hard to spin the outdrives, seems like there is 60,000 in the diff instead of 10,000. Any help would be great

lol
RB's are Nova based....
I don't know anyone running ninja that has has consistent success. The two fastest guys I know that ran them, one went back to nova the other went back to RB :) also I think you might know, Mike S went BACK to JP......

Just go Nova, you cannot go wrong...other's MAY work fine but Nova is a Known...


I am runnuing the kawahara 4mm chassis, seriously sick! my engine runs about 10degrees cooler with the ducting and fins
