Hi....
moving the hubs forward 2mm ...i have found it gives the car more on power steering and it holds its line better through the corner....Ive been using 25deg hubs as i find it makes the car better in the corners...ive tryed 30deg but found the car washed of mid to exit steering...so im sticking with 25deg hubs! When running this mod you have to flip the steering rack over and remove the front hole so you can get the clearance from the bulkhead ...this also gives true ackermann! im running inline steering as well .(this is a B.K mod!...thanks Brian).
ive moved the motor plate over by 2mm as well and find the car better balanced !!!!as for the sway bay -I made it that way so there is a little bit of give into the corner as i didnt what to take grip away but wanted to take some roll away...i never run the car with out it now and the bars ive made for my fellow X-Factory team mates they never take them off as well.

as for the black belt i dont know the part number i had them left over from my XXX-SG tourer!!!! im also going to try the blue belts as well...i found that the black belts fell alot stronger .....ive tryed looking for more black belts but at this time no luck as yet...still looking!!! i think they came out with the XXX-s R.T.R kit????

i put up some new pics of the car so you can see all the new things im trying soon!!!
you can find more pics of my cars at the Australian thread for x factory car on RC TECH ....
