bobsomebody Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 by the time you bought the wheels and spoiler in red you may as well pay and get the .28. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midi-mania Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 yes but i read about the engines and the .21 doesnt use asmuch fuel and is aparantly easier to tune and keep tuned and i could sell the .21 parts on ebay to get some of the money backwats the difference in spring colours? on the msuk website they have blue and white, whatabout the originals?

Indie Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I do beleive that the spring colours are as follows Blue - Soft (Standard) Black - Medium White - Hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midi-mania Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 well why are white good then? surely stiff means lots of broken plastic bits??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy1135 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 It stops all of the droop in the shocks so it sits a bit higher. Thats why there recommended for bashing but not really suited to racing as it throws the car all over the effin place on the track (i speak from experience)..

midi-mania Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 thats what i mean, surely if they are stiff then they wont absorb the impact as much so you are more likely to break a swingarm, shock mount unless there alloy?

Not really. There is still bounce in the springs so although it'll put more strain on the parts it's only a minimal ammount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stock_Nitro Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I've not seen anywhere that sells the red wing and wheels that come off of the .28 kit yet. Ebay would be your best bet i'd guess. And no there is no difference to the .21TQ and the .28TQ apart from the engine and the colour of the wing, wheels and fuel tube etc. (i'm guessing the air filter and the exhaust elbow will also be red too). It wouldn't be worth it in the long or short run as you would probably want to upgrade or change some of these parts in future anyway. My advise would be to get the buggy that you wan't now and spend any extra money on getting it running nicely before you worry too much about styling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
