Default Ghea or Trishbits brass ??

Want to add brass front bulk and brace plus rear brace to my B4 but unsure on which to go for as they are very different weights

Can anyone tell me which would be best and what combo is used ?

Thanks

I use the Ghea Racing brass front bulkhead and rear brace on my B4, and have found it balances the car out car out nicely with LIPO. I do have a further 150 grams of weight under the battery but thats it. Delivery and quality is spot on to. Can't comment about the Trishbits parts as have had no experience of them.

I use the TrishBits bulkhead on my X6 and it's perfect fit and finish. I also know other people who use the B4 front and rear blocks and like them a lot.

Give Trish an email at trishbits@live.com and he'll sort you out.

I can't comment on the Ghea stuff, as I have no experience of it.

I have one of Trish's front blocks on my X6 as well, and it's fine. I'm sure the Geah one is perfectly ok as well. Personally i bought Trish's one as it was heavier. I figured that the reason i was putting one on at all was to add weight, so i may as well add as much as i could.

I have used both and i have to say both are pretty good... But Trishbit's do a range of different weights now so i will be sticking with them.

I run the Trishbits rear block and the front wishbone support/brace and the fit and finish is spot on.

Trish is also a good bloke.

I use Trishbits, I have the front and rear blocks. And I have to say he is a great bloke because he is always helping you at the race track.
