The stock oil in the TRF shock kit is very soft, similar to 15W-20W.. Tamiya uses a different gauge called centistokes to classify their oil.. Centistokes cannot always be perfectly converted to existing (W)eight standards, but there are some charts available that do a pretty good job of matching up the closest oil types.

I only race on outdoor and indoor dirt tracks.. I don't think I would be the best person to recommend an oil and spring setting for astro.. All I know is that my car handled much better on hard dirt tracks when I switched to 30W-40W oils and harder springs (I used the Team Associated spring kit).
