They're identical...
The only different ones were the VERY early grey chassis (in the first 12 months of production) which were slightly diffferent around the front shock towers.

Here is the setup i use on carpet which works very well for me (regular 'A' wins):
Front
Shock Oil - Orion 80wt
Spring - Short TRF White
RollBar - Silver
Rear
Shock Oil - Orion 50wt
Spring - TA05 Kit Silver (Med/Hard)
RollBar - Black
Toe-In Rear Uprights
I am running TRF Shocks with 3-Hole pistons and the ESC and Reciever are in the back of the chassis (Kit Speedo and Spektrum)

Inside spacers
When using TRF Flourine dampers (53571) how many spacers should I put on the inside of the shock? I considered 12mm but that barely leaves ANY travel at all. The Tamiya 'Built to Win' Article mentions 4 3-mm o-rings in each damper but the black o-rings I have are not 3mm tall, they are closer to 1.5 - 2mm.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Khal

I run the wires through the center of the chassis,over the battery pack. you can also run your motor wires throung the chassisby drilling small holes between where the motor is and where the battery mounts.
The M03 can clean up very nice and hide all of the wires if you want it to.
