Hi,
I'm looking into upgrading my springs from Losi to Kyosho but I'm not sure what to order as I've always used Losi springs. As these springs from Kyosho cost a small fortune I want to be sure hat to get ![]() What are the equivalent springs for the following: Front: Losi Green = Kyosho ? Losi Blu = Kyosho ? Rear: Losi Pink = Kyosho ? Losi Yellow= Kyosho ? Thanks in advance! |

Very roughly the order is as follows
Fronts:- X-gear red Losi Green X-gear yellow Losi Blue X-gear Orange Losi Black Rear:- X-gear Red Losi Yellow X-gear Yellow (very close to the losi yellows but much more progressive feel on car) Losi Pink X-gear Orange Losi Red The difference between the two sets of springs is that the X-gear springs feel a lot more progressive on the car than the Losi springs, it's to do with the way they are wound to achieve each rate. Hopefully I'll have a proper table up soon comparing all the common big bore springs properly on an industrial compressive test machine but until then the above will work as a reasonable guide. Forget all the charts you find online, not one is totally right and they all differ from each other quite a bit. Hope that helps P.S. On the RB6 I tend to run X-gear yellow front / X-gear red rears (or Losi Pink if using an additional hole on the wishbone to the standard inside hole on flat arms) |

I've got the Losi Low Frequency sets and they seem to be pretty decent so far.
Apparently the original 22 springs are not that great at all. |

Altough I'm a Kyosho fan 100% I've see a lot of guys running the Losi shocks (not the LF ones) on K cars with great results.
Despite being great on low grip conditions some prefer the Losi ones. AE guys even tried them on their small bores and most sold them afterwards. I would say try a set before, especially considering their price point. |
