I haven't driven it yet cause I'm still waiting for my Tekin 2050 and Rx8. Thanks.
well i was running 5-5-2 and it was a little too lose feeling for me. I changed to 5-5-5 and I felt it made a big difference in handling (not as loose in the rear). I like it better. So i would imagine that 3-5-7 would be very different, tuning the diffs can really change the way a car handles. I would guess you will have decreased steering with the setup. IMO i would change back to 5-7-3 or 5-7-5 would be great for bashing.
