Here is a setup that one can enjoy, and drive the piss out of with confidence.
Front: #2 pistons, 2 limiters, Kyosho bright orange springs, 30wt oil, inside on the tower, outside on the arm. 1mm camber washer, and inside on the tower, and inside on the 3 hole caster block. 24.5mm ride height.
Rear: #2 pistons, 2 limiters, Kyosho bright yellow springs, 27.5 oil, inside on the tower, and inside on the arm. 1 washer under the u-brace ball stud located on the inside hole of the u-brace. B hole on the "A" plastic insert of the aluminum 0 degree hubs. 3 degree toe block with "1" degree of anti squat. 24.5mm ride height. Thick battery pad in the front, and a thin one in the rear. Of course, all the weights in the usual places too. I honestly feel the key to this set up is the K springs...car stays so flat in the corners, and jumps like a dream.

The track I race on was recently reworked. The traction is good enough to wheelie on the straights. I think Bilster's setup is definately worth trying.
I hit on a very similar setup mid summer and have only made minor adjustments to suit my driving style.
Previously the track had less grip (medium) and the setup still worked great.
The orange springs are slightly softer than the brown's. (More Steering)
The yellow springs are slightly softer than the silver's. (Again More Steering)
I'm able to run the car using little to no brake and it turns like 1/12th scale.

Are the Durangos a good fit on the collars too? I would like to try those...I bet they are easier to strip and polish too. Kyoshos are a pain, and a lot of work. I do like the course thread, self tapping, socket head bleeder cap screws...they NEVER strip out either !

b4.1 update
i have to say my 8mm has had me so happy and the only reason i switched is bc i whent to a hube 1.8 scale and 1.10 scale track and i didn't want it to break
....ill order up the extended version it will prob handle better just since it is one peice and wont have a different way of flexing, the cut chassis have been dailed tho.... i see more and more going to it.
brents setup is a dailed sob but not for the shortie
