I am looking forward to your reviews of the RB5 and the D4.

Any one who has built the D4 could they comment on any of the tips in this blog - translated by google.

Any more tips in case I can not hold off on building until after the Oople review.

Hmmmm.. not checked that site for tips, but here's mine....

Front Shock Tower: Build with the screw head facing forward. See the pics of my car from tiverton national... It reduces the overhang of the screw giving the ground let to bite at (If and when) you crash

Gear Lube: Use the DIP Orange cap stuff for lubing the gears.. The HB stuff is good, but for ultra free transmissions the DIP stuff is pimp.

Plastic: It's worth buying a 3mm tap for all the plastic bits.. I mounted mine in a old Hudy handle. Use a bit of the clear grease to ease cutting and the build goes much easier and less stress on your hands.

Other than that: Take your time!!!
