What is the purpose of that DJ suspension? I remember seeing those pics but I don't remember why they had this setup?

I have to say I really like the stock setup on my EVO IV as is is very adjustable and allows me to setup the car for foams rather easily. The new setup looks like it would work as well. Might be a little lighter to.

That is somethin else, looks like it puts the arm right up by the axle, never seen a shock mounted like that. If it comes out, I'd like to try it, just another tuning option.

I had a Pro4. They are similiar in the way the suspension uses aluminum toe in blocks. Overall in the right hands it is a toss up on what car to get. I like both cars but currently run the EVO right now. For me it handles a little better but I just happned to have a setup that suits me better with the EVO.

Default Evo 4 for sale

Hi guys...

Just wanted to let you guys know that I have an EVO 4 for sale in the "For Sale/Trade Forum" on this page. It's got a ton of stuff going with it too.

You can ask WYD about my stuff too. It's top notch and well taken care of.

And Reigle, when the heck are you gonna come to an ORL2 race. You should have come to Kranzel's man. What a track. Spittin image of SnowBirds.

Later,

Jason

Schreff has killer stuff. Not only is he ripping fast but his equipment is top of the line. He has one fast EVO!!!

As for going to Kranzels I doubt that will ever happen as me and Dave don't see eye to eye and I will never support him in anyway. Too bad as I can bring in alot of guys for him in touring car. What ever he had at the ORL race I could of brought in another 5 to 10 guys but that is ok. Lots of other cool places to run.

Sometime after the 1st of the year I will venture down to DC Ultra and run. Saw pics and the place look pretty nice and I know you and Cuffs are just laying down the power in stock. Looks just like pan car and everyone is chasing you to catch up.

If you looking for a killer EVO IV PM Jason about this car as it is as good as new if not better.

Where do you get those dampers with the rough effect on the tops, I've seem them on Rheinhards 415 on the box of my MS. They look much easier to tighten, especially if your hands are covered in oil!

Ballsie,

that's exactly what the grips are for, to make it easier to tighten. I believe we still have some of the blue upper and lower shock caps left:

Should be the last item on that page.

Thanks Steve - Order placed + some Ti Racing Pinions

Let me know if I haven't paid enough postage. $7.99 seemed pretty cheap.

Hey guys..I was browsing the tamiya web site for site support on the evoIv...ie, setup sheets, team driver setup info...I couln't find them! Is there another site that has all those stuff for the evo4. I seems ever other manufacture has their setup help info pretty available...and tamiya's web site is so hard to navigate!
