just finishing my WC and need a little help...I;m using an ace 1313 servo and having trouble with the throttle linkage. Not enough space between the bottom of the servo horn and the servo body for the mounting screws that came with the kit? Any advise or good pics of your throttle/brake setup would help.

Losi HAHA..Do you really think that Kanai is going to let losi have anything to do with the designing of the new buggy.....If kyosho was to ask Kanai to let losi help he would be insulted.Japanese have a lot of pride in there work.Try being in kanai`s shoes..If your buggy design won the last 2 worlds and someone tried to tell you to let this guy help, what would you do..Look at it like he is. Why should I let anybody help with my design when my design has won the last 2 worlds.........If kyosho does want losi to help and I was kanai I would break contract and start selling my design to some one else...Kyosho doesn`t own Kanai nor his buggy they just have the rights to distribute it.........(While there in contract)
kanai deals with Kyosho International
Losi works for Kyosho America

Billet knuckles (never broke the stock ones, but changed these for peace of mind), WC chassis braces (stock ones pop off if you look at them wrong), the optional rear antisquat plates, new bonded brake pads or Craddock/Racer's Edge fiberglass rotors (you lose quite a bit of rotating mass using these), rubber sealed steering and driveline bearings if you run on muddy/dusty surfaces, and the new locking wheel nuts....maybe a hex screw kit (seem to bite into the plastic better, but the fine threads take more revolutions of the wrench to get them in). That's all you really need :-P

Just an FYI, while Kyosho does not OWN Kanai. It IS a Kyosho buggy as anything developed while he is employed by Kyosho is the property of Kyosho. This is fact. It's also rather naive of you to try and say what Kanai would think about Gil helping in design. There is probably a better chance that kanai has much respect for Gil's design abilities, he has how many world champion cars under his belt?
