Thanks for the suggestions.

SP it is, until I find an FS conversion for the kinda deal I got on the SP.

As for the build experience, the parts quality is very good which is typical of Kyosho. I am a bit disappointed by the way the parts and hardware are bagged. 10 little bags of screws and you have to open almost all of them for the first 2 pages of build.

Im assembling my kit a little backwards at the moment. I didnt feel like building the rear diff the other night when I started so I went straight for the complete rear end. I know this means I will have to disassemble a good chunk of what is already on the car just to install the diff.
Luckily I have a full set of 3/32 ceramic diff balls I had picked up for my Losi JRX-S type R, but never bothered to install.

Any diff building tips out there? Other than sanding the diff rings flat? What is the preferred diff lube? I will probably end up using the Associated black and clear greases for the diff. I have heard that Schmacher has a really good diff lube, maybe I will pick some of it up.
