I will put a little less fluid next time. note my two speed wobles but I have not had any problems with the gears.
No need to shim small gear. Add one more shim to top and bottom big gear, fill full with oil,work a little the diff, let it rest and screw 3 of 4 screws and let a little oils to pop and then screw all of them. You are done with no leak and problem.
Or if you buy new diff case then you shim default (1 up and down)

Is the new diff case the alloy side one?

It seems that the material is little harder but there is a difference from inside. Also in order to recognize the new one at the back there is a design like the logo of Team Orion. Will upload a photo of it in the afternoon.

Hi guys.

I bought the vzw409 rear suspension mounts. Can someone explain how they change the roll centre as they look the same to me as I only have the centred plastic bushings......

Thanks

Car is understeering and i think that is because of rear too much handling...
How?????

This part let you change the height of rear lower arms. So you can change roll center.
Also you need plastic part with different hole position to change the height.

Ah ok. That makes sense now. Thanks. What is the part number for the offset plastic part as they don't come in the kit for the rear only the front which are too big.

You must buy VZ410. So you can change also front roll center. The only think you must always see is the width of the car because when you change the lower arm height you also change arm width...

I could be wrong, but rightnow I don't think anybody who switched from RRR to R4 is actually going any faster.......atleast the few I've seen at our track!!
