Thanks, I had to post that briefly as my boss was walking by.

Just to make sure before I go and get them. Are the aramid belts stronger? or are they just the same as the low friction belts which I'm told are actually weaker but have less friction.

Oh, and because I damaged the spur gear cover, is it worth just getting the carbon fibre brace that goes between the front and rear diffs instead? I figure that as I break things along the way, I might aswell upgrade them when they break.

also, can you get a metal centre gear? same idea as above.

thanks

I am looking at purchasing the ta05 and had a question in regards to the shocks. I've got an extra pair of aluminum TC3/4 shocks and would like to know if anybody has tried them on their car and if the length is right. Thanks.
