It is understandable that people want a better car after 3 to 4 yrs with the old one, but to be honest Mugen doesn't need to hurry while their MTX4R is so competitive even pair with the latest model from other brand.

You know how the r/c manufacturers have the r/c community conditioned: you have to have the latest/greatest regardless of how well/successful your current gear performs. My MTX-4 (not R) with a couple of performance upgrades is very competitive with the NT1s, 733s, and V-One-RRRs (fill in the blank for version) in my area. When I don't do well, it is more about my driving than it is the car. When you make mistakes, break, flame-out, etc during a race, it doesn't matter what car you have.

i have an mtx 3 prospec and spare parts are already limited. can i use the pinion and spur gears of mtx 4 to mtx 3?

SuperstarBG

you can use the .08 pitch spur gears but not the pinions

thefuzzclub

is it because the clutch bell is different?

asw7576

Yup, mtx4's clutchbell is different from mtx3.

thefuzzclub

i found this in rcmart, clutch assembly for mtx3 and mtx4. if i install this, will i be able to use the pinion of mtx4?

Wrong quote for MTX3.

Correct quote for MTX4.

T0738 is clutch set for mtx4.

thefuzzclub

will the mtx4 clutch assembly fit in mtx3?

Very exciting, I am going to start the tear down of my MTX4R in preparation of the upcoming racing season. I will be rebuilding every part of the car and am wondering what shock oils people have been having luck with on a medium grip set up? I am looking to go with 400 wt oil on this rebuild as last season I was running the stock 600 wt. Also I will be making my order very soon for my tires and am leaning toward the Twister tires for the price and responses I have been reading about people liking how they perform.

If your running med grip track go back to the standard chassis much better steering .
