Hi
Just to let you all know it looks like there has been some running changes to the G4RS kit. It now comes with this supplementary sheet and it looks like the rear swaybar is the same as the G4+ and the length of the tie rods has changed as well.

looks like a bit more plastic surrounding the ball, and the ball seems longer. bit more strength for the lower shock position. maybe different plastics also, as they sound like they have changed the spur material. sorry to say Lui... maybe a bit too late for the update for me. my average lap time has come down 0.5 of a second , and a best time of 0.3 with the old 720 chassis. not alot of engineering gon einto it either, just built it up and raced it.

No worries...
I have compared the spur gears with those that came with my G4+ and haven't noticed any difference, but i didn't pull them off the holders at all. Is there spose to be so much sideways movement with the gears when they spin on the shaft? Is it like the holder is buckled!!!!
Thanxs

so...this 30mm clutch is the earliest version?
e.g. 30mm to UFO to UFO2?
their only differences are the clutch plate and clutch shoe rite?

Dont worry, after all the dramas with parts availability, price of parts etc lately i'm sure a few people have at least thought about it if not already dumped TM for kyosho or especiall the x-ray NT-1 (bloody yuppies). I know a lot of guy's at my club have sold their G4's beause of all the issues surrounding TM and all bought Nt-1's.

Also does anyone know where i can get the very original 30mm push type throw weights from? Can't find them anywhere. They are a lot thinner and longer than the UFO 1 shoes i think. I'm not sure of the part number either.
Can you use the Mugen rear roll-bar set up on the G4s??????? I'm not a big fan of the blade type sway bars and prefer the Mugen type.

As for the play in the ED transmission, the original hopup version of the ED transmission shows a shim being used to take up endplay in the 2-speed housing under the screw and washer. (inside of the back cover)

I have the UFO 1 clutch set-up and i just ordered a new pressure ring shoe but the only one i could order was the single pressure shoe for the UFO 2 clutch system. Will this fit ok??

Hey man. Check out Brooklyne Hobbies. They have alot of that older stuff. You may want to call them to get a better price. He wants to get rid so they're open to offers
All the best.

yup, there's a shim provided but when i tried mine, i didn't use that shim as it'll cause my spur gears some binding...abit too tight with the shim.
btw, anyone knows the size of that shim? i seems to have lost mine.
