puma1824

not with the MTX-3 but I hope to race it at Hobby Works' big race on Sept 7th UNLESS I end up liking the R40 better. My NTC3 has sat in a corner ever since I got the MTX-3.

Anyone have any problems with the front arms binding? I can't figure out why they don't drop smoothly when the shocks are unmounted. The should drop freely, correct? It doesn't seem like there is any front to back binding.

I tried both, almost the same. As someone mentioned ealier, on is wirder, another one is taller.

I noticed that the other day while checking the droop.I first checked the pivot balls to see if they were in too tight.I then checked the hinge pins and found that they fit tightly in the bulk heads.I slightly reamed the bulk heads and it works fine now.

I have a question for those who have the kawahara rear swaybar

How does this swaybar improve the car's handling? (if at all)

For example, if i use the stock swaybar for 5 laps around the track and then switched to the kawahara one (in the softest position) for another 5 laps, assuming that the hardness is exactly the same (I know that it may not be), how will the kawahara one "feel" different?

So what i mean is pretty much this-

**does it do anything other than being adjustable and looking good?



thanks for any comments

its tunable, right Vinyard!

ok, joke aside, well...other than its 'adjustable', it doesnt warp like those stock wire, causing inconsistency of rear end handling..

Vinyard

Oh yes.. it definately got to be tunable.. tunabilitly is very important...

is there a way to prevent the damper diaphragms being popped in? i notice this each time i open the shock cap? and when its popped in, the shaft doesnt extend fully when compressed.
is there something wrong with the diaphragms? or anything?
thanks

you can put an o-ring in to prevent that

i cut some foam tire inserts, 4 of the same size, and one for each shocks, and it works pretty good too

just by adding the sway bar itself will not imporve the handling, you need to adjust it!!
and besides good looking and adjustable, what do you expect more? it's just a sway bar, all it has to do is what a sway bar suppose to do, maybe doing it better than the stock one
