I think you can also use the red kyosho o-rings.

what is the difference with the blue o-rings? I was gonna order them but i was told they are for DIB, drift cars.

No difference in size. Difference is in quality. They last longer and make your shocks smoother.

Thanks, I will give the blue orings a try. Did use the new orings that come with the shock caps.

Hi Guys I have heard that some of you are putting weight under the lipo in mr configuration. Is this weight an option part?

Thanks

Just after a little advice I have won a yokomo bmax2 mr in a raffle at storm valley . 2wd is really not my thing so looking at selling it. When I searched there seems to be 2 versions how will I know the difference , it's in the box and still sealed and has the price on it which was 239.99.

Just have a look on cml website mate. The v2 has a blue car on the box I think and includes alloy chassis and a gear diff. V1 has plastic chassis and ball diff.

That doesn't have the carbon battery brace, or ali rear hubs?

So they added titanium turnbuckles, ali shock caps and TiNi shock shafts, along with the ali front blue bling. I guess this should have all been in the v2 kit?

I have this already, apart form the gear diff. I'm happy with the ball diff.

think most drivers of the original Bmax 2 have already upgraded to the worlds spec.
although that alloy chassis with built in kick up does look great
I doubt however that it will be available stand alone.

I'd rather have a plastic nose plate break than a bent aluminum chassis. This worlds chassis is made for better drivers than me.

[skyaflake]

Both are limited editions, but I guess the chassis is just a evolution part. Will be the standard (for the alu chassis) I guess. I prefer two separate pieces as well. At the moment I run a carbon chassis, best of both worlds for me.

Most people already have all parts (except the chassis and maybe the shock shafts), but great for a new car to start the upcoming season with. Not for me though. Still going strong with my current one.

Too bad they didn't include rear alu hubs. But I guess that would bump up the price too much.

Your cf chassis would be my upgrade of choice, but as the small nose adapter seems not to be available separately, my son will probably get the aluminum chassis when we switch to higher grip astro in spring.

I'm about to fit the alu idler gears, do they need grease?

Yep they do need some form of lubrication. I prefer heavy (c.a. 80-100wt)shockoil myself

[200sx]

Thanks for the reply. I don't have any shock oil of that weight and need to get them fitted asap. This is what I have in my pit box:

Ass. Black grease.
Ass. Stealth diff lube.
The black and the white greases that came with the Bmax kit.
Tamiya anti wear grease.
Tamiya ball diff grease.
Tmiya general grease.
2,000 cst shock oil.
30,000 cst sil oil.

Which is best suited for the job?
