I just bought a used 415MS and I have a question about the pulleys you guys were talking about earlier.

What pully comes with the MS? I bought a direct center pulley and was wondering how this would change the car? I will not be racing carpet this year only outdoors. Thanks for any info.

Well if you're using a spool you need the fixed centre pulley. Otherwise with a one way you'd be better off having a one way centre pulley. First they're easier on the front belt and lasts longer, second they will provide a more consistent performance from the car.

does any one have the 415 steering arms, both left and right that they would like to sell to me?

Either new or used, but the price has to be sensible and preferably the seller would be UK based.

Cheers.

I usually race rubbers (TO27s) in Stock at a fairly tight, twisty home track.

It seems to handle well, but if I lower the spacers under the front ball connectors for the top arms on the diff housing, will this make my steering/turn in sharper?

53579 - steering arms
50986 - Ball connector (kingpin stud and bushing)

tamiya usa's site says they are in stock. Check your area's version of the tamiya website. just ask for the LUBE when they stick it to ya.

nobody else, here in the states, seems to have them.

Has anyone been having more tweaking issues with the MSX Kit as compared to the MS converted car? I seem to be having to reset the top deck quite often, im wondering if the centre brace assists the chassis in keeping a tweak?
