Thanks.

I run my car with the spacer all the time regardless of the choice of tire brands, which range from Kawahara to Ellegi, FastTire. As long as it doesn't rub against the knuckle, that's the only thing I care about.

Shock Oil
Anyone know the Mugen Shock Oil #600 is equivalent to Trinity what shock oil Number? Or does it the same as Serpent Shock Oil #30?
Btw, do you guys use 2 piston holes or 1 piston hole for the front shock or what shock #, assuming you are running on less traction packing lot race?

Based on this the mugen oil is just under 50wt.

possible dumb gearing question
Ok, this may be a stupid question but If I am going to change the gearing do I need to nake sure there is a 4 tooth difference between the pinions and spurs on both 1st and second gear like the stock ones are to maintain proper mesh? for example if I put the 15th 1st gear pinion on do I also need to change the second gear pinion to the 19th or can I leave the 20th and so on.
Thanks

Best to go with is the 0.8M gear modules from Mugen (if you run a MTX-3), this set of new gearing allows you to run a wider tooth spread without having to worry about..

Re: Re: possible dumb gearing question
Thanks, my new NS12 S3 seems to have plenty of torq so thats good news. 15th to get it out of the hole and 20th for good top end. Cool

troy, from 15T jump to 20T could still be possible if your engine is torquey enough to pull away when 2nd gear kick in! You need to re-adjust your 2-speed clutch to suit your powerband to avoid a sluggish 2nd gear which will cost you lots of time.

Someone out there still owes me a full report on the followings:
0.8 gear system
Ceramic bearing
I wouldn't have bothered you if I am not concentrating on learning the WD40 Tunning effects.
