Well a lot of people including everyone currently using a B4 would think the B4.1 id just a kit with a few new bits added in.
Well it isn't. So so many new parts and so many changes. This is a small list of the changes and I will try and post some pics laters Chassis - for sure of different material and more flex and additional strength up the front nose (although I have never had a problem there) Comes with the all new V2 shocks and they build like a dream and very very smooth Comes with the new slipper clutch and a great crystal clear glass type plastic gear cover - absolutely awesome - love this! New front and rear shock towers although they have been out for a while Comes with 30deg caster blocks that have 3 holes instead of 2 for adjustment The ball studs are all new and adjustable from the top with allen driver Now comes with blue thumb screws included in the kit Carbon fibre battery brace that i think was included in the previous factory team but this also comes with split foams for fine battery adjustment front and rear New squat rear plate New style rear wishbones New rear drive shafts like the B44 and locking ring for the pin to stay safe New rear towing blocks outer and inner. The rear end is now FULLY adjustable for tow in and also a great combination of outer and inner tow in can be achieved Included is the Proline body and 2 rear wings (taste on this one but look real nice) Anyways, I am sure other items that I have forgotten but i have built the kit and has gone together like a dream. Even to the point of I didn't get the files out to make those little free up jobs. Just perfect and about time a manufacturer has made a kit that goes together easilly and freely and for sure doesn't make one feel that they need to buy anything. Finally, I added up the differences and the value of them. It would cost well over £220 to buy the changes so just buy the kit - Simples!!! ![]() I know loads are being sold as we speak but I think Marc has some still www.m-k-racing.com Please check with him though I will post some pics later

Interesting, I've just ordered the V2 clutch and spring from Marc, but did't notice these bits:

What's different about this part? Again what's different about this part, material or shape? Thanks ![]() |

The squat plate just sems to be more refined and has small shaped areas for the wishbones to clear and so on - also feels of different material that I am sure is designed for more grip - saying that unforunately no one has spoke to the states yet and therefore it's only what I have observed thus far
The rear wishones same as above and also fit the B44 - they seem to have extra clearance for the shafts The front blocks have the original holes with additional hole. Oh and there is no need to get different wishbones now as they are in the kit as standard - before people would change to plastic - now included. I can't make a comment on performance of the new clutch as not yet run the car but like I originally said, a great build and all just looks spot on!

I know the shock towers carried over the original part numbers from the B4 and that the new slipper parts have different part numbers, but what about all the other bits?
Edit: wishbones seem to be the same part numbers but the chassis plate is different as are the arm mounts/toe in blocks |

Might be but the point I was trying to make with all this, is that Associated have added everything in this kit that the team have tested, designed, thought of, run etc etc and known that works
