Default Kyosho LAW34 suspension kit

Is the above mentioned kit worth getting? How does it improve the car? Any issues with fitting?

You'e a real talker you are

Seriously, I am struggling to find out what exactly this upgrade does for the car's handling and if it's suited to some tracks more than others? Info seems very hard to find and for a £65 upgrade it shouldn't be that hard!

It shortens the rear arms but has a wider hub. This will put more pressure on the rear wheels and increase traction. It also uses longer shock shafts with the sweet RB5 shock cartridges.

Lots of info on it here: http://rctech.net/forum/showthread.php?t=85386&page=120 (around that page area)

i'm hoping kyosho will come out with a "worlds" upgrade kit which encompasses all upgrades and changes to the car rather than buying in bits and pieces. fingers crossed.

I am tempted buying the middle conversion, since my local track isn't that very big and got many tight turns. In theory the car should handle a bit better with a shorter wheelbase...?

The law upgrade is now included with the zx5 kits anyway. the shock update is worth its weight, as it spaces the o rings furthur apart keeping the shaft straighter and stopping leaks.

the rear end modification allows you to run harder spring rates for the same bump handling, i think it makes the car sharper
