What do you think about A-A, B-B, C-C parts in the rear? When can I use one or another? A friend of mine told me that A parts are for large tracks, and C for small, but he didn't now why. I'm not sure

These change the amount the rear of your car will roll.
The A-A block gives you the least roll and C-C block the most roll.
The more roll, the more weight will move over the tyres and should produce more grip.

Will someone please comment on the Over-drive pulley sets available (16/19 ??). I don't understand why they are useful......

The stock pulleys from the main-shaft to the rear are a 19/48....the stock pulleys on the front half of the car are a 19:24 and 16:32.....both ends have a ratio of 2.526315~~~, exactly the same....

Why have over-drive on the front of the car....tire-wear or some better feel to the handling?


Anybody got a source for a front-spool or spool conversion for the MTX-3? I thought Kawahara made an aluminum converter that could replace the diff gears to achieve the lock-up.....does anybody know where I could get one? Does anybody make a solid spool that fits the stock one-way pulley?

Thanks for the advice.....(and the entertaining penguin games... )

Doing break-in on my MTX 3 this weekend.

It seems that the clutch hooks up a little late. Do I tighten clockwise or counter-clockwise to make the clutch engage earlier?

Thanks,

Matt

Bivens and ronvdp,

Scroll back through this MTX-3 forum and you will find the answers you seek as it has been covered many times.

no, i dont believe that the mtx-4 will come out anytime soon

It will come out a bit longer after the mrx-4 is released...that is my guess

I have heard a rumour Fall/winter 04.

Ok, have finished basic break-in on the motor and am now giving it some full throttle (although running very rich).

I can't seem to find second gear. So I made sure it was set at the factory 3 turns out. I believe that its shifting too early and never hitting 1st gear. But even at 2 1/2 and 2 1/4 turns out I'm still not getting any shift. How many turns out are you guys running the stock 2-speed?
