Hi
I have a zx5 sp,but really want to know is the standard rb5 good out the kit or does the vega conversion really needed.Had a 210 thought that was just hype. Best car i had last season i think was my cougar so have ran a mid car

Convince me to go rb5

The rb5 is a good car, but the vega just makes it better for UK usage in my opinion.

The rb5 is a gr8 car period. The vega conversion takes it to another level. I am runnin a fabs mid rb5. I have moded the chasis to roughly the same width, but still NO WHERE near as planted as the vega is. The spares are easy to get and with more n more people coming over to the DARKSIDE set ups are easy to get too.

GIVE IN TO THE POWER OF THE DARKSIDE !!!:D

Same here, the RB5 is a great car but the Vega is by far the best car I've driven so far. Easy to run and so reliable !
I've broke some rear shock towers, that's all and I have to admit I'm not easy on cars and broke a lot usually.

My new Vega with long chassis and RB5 WC kit is en route from Inside Line by the end of the week, it's so good I will only drive this next season.

The kit springs are very close in rate to the X-gear pink fronts and red rears but there are not the X-gear springs.
