As for lightened clutch hooked-on, I would actually go for a HEAVIER clutch, namely a centax. Mugen, V1RR and Kawahara small one works. Downside is you need a pilot shaft engine.

To lighten the standard clutch get a drill and go for it. Simple as that, I did this to my old HPI racing clutch. Try to balance it as well as you can.

tone, you will need to get the V1RR from overseas. There are several online Hong Kong and Japanese shops which can help you out. Or you can get a V1R and perform the conversion yourself, but this is much more expensive.

opel92, ditto to hooked_on!! Get the damn thing running I wanna see how fast it is!

I fly 600 miles and worked 15 hours today, my answer is shorter than usual

BTW the Novarossi 52606 outlaw pipe is great!! It is 5.5mm stinger diameter, .3mm larger than EFRA/IFMAR legal. But it is very durable and provides an extremely linear rev range and great throttle response. Several of my track mates have the EFRA legal version and it seems just as good.

I have a couple of 51605 which is another inline pipe from NR. I still havent used it yet as it is still on my quese list.

dtm couldnt wait and he is using this pipe. He said 51605 is VERY linear. Not flat but very even thru out bottom, mid and top end.

I just bought the kawahara Zac Project outlaw pipe and It works very well also. Better than the RB X12 pipe so far and IMO better than the yokomo inline as well.

Have that as well!! The ZAC is more of a low end pipe though!! Probable better suited the the 5 port engines...where low end torque is a little lacking

I ended up buying 2 complete 51605 because I wanted the .12 manifold. Have been running the .12 inline manifold with the 51224 pipe to pick up the low end a bit on the RR....seems to do the trick with the RS engine!

Well DTM I'd have to agree I noticed the difference on the bottom and mid-range with the Zac pipe. But that's what I was after cause the track I run is pretty tight and the str8 is only 100-110 feet. I actually don't know how the top end runs cause i haven't tried to tune it for speed. I put the Zac on an OS TR and it really helped it more than any other pipe I've tried so far.

I'll also have to agree with Manticore on the RB Turbo's being strong off the bottom. I have the 3 port turbo though, so I'm not sure how the 5 runs, but the 3 port had TOO much bottom for me to drive when I had it in an NTC3 so I took it out and put it back in a belt car.

Oh yeah M 5, I paid the same for the Zac that I did for the RB - 55 shipped from jkara off ebay. He's out now but he'll get more in. He also has the best prices I've found anywhere on the Zac 26/32 tires. $17-dollars for the multi-rings.
