I echo what Nick has said, the Kyosho front springs (even the new Orange) are just not stiff enough for my driving style when used on the middle hole at the front. The Losi springs are decent quality so no worries there, that said as Tony has pointed out NOTHING is as consistent as Kyosho so if they produce a stiffer front spring I'd switch to them in a heartbeat!

Yokomo Green approx = to Losi Blue.

Again as Nick said the rear end feels much more settled and planted with the pistons drilled, I have settled on 5x1.3 (standard) and 5x1.4 (drilled) with 40wt/ 27.5wt AE respectively as the base combination that seems to work just about everywhere.

No experience of running the Losi pistons, in the 2wd I have blocked a hole in the standard pistons to achieve the greater pack that I prefer.

If you need any help just ask bud
