As Terry said but the 200 evo buyers did have the option of choosing the losi shocks if they preferred. As these versions were only sold in Japan they could do this. Small numbers were due to them not opting to sell it as kyosho needed a quick sale kit so changed the design to a shaft drive, so basically the zxs was a test bed for the zx5
