Who locks their slipper? It just puts massive pressure on the drivetrain.

And southwell, i agree with you, nobody locks up a slipper but it is never used like a 2wd slipper, its just used to save the drivetrain a bit

Thats the biggest upgrade, the BJ4 one was designed to save the drivetrain, the B44 one is designed for saving the drivetrain and having it to adjust the power delivery , like a 2wd, although its not as important.

Also helps over the bumps.. alot! I've been playing around with the slipper in the oOple D4 for the past few weeks and it's made a massive difference adjusting it track to track.

So in summary what BJ4 bits should i bolt on to my new B44?

[markwilliamson2001]

NONE!! Its fine...

[HVAC25000]

What B44 bits should one bolt onto a BJ4WE?

Can that new fangled slipper be put on it?

Both cars are World Champions, they're equally good (in different ways).

dude: you gotta tune the slipper each outing. that's one reason 4wd cars rock -- they get tunage up front in the cabin whilst party boyz were sucking light gaz in the pits... The B44 is an awesome race car and a terrible basher.

Please eloborate?!?!

On the subject: I built a B44 with a friend and boy was I glad it wasn't my car. I thought it sort of felt cheap and nasty. Some of the bits were nice but all the plastic felt crap, the carbon had misweaves and bad finish and the wheels are horrible! I have never seen wheels as soft as the new ones that were in the box.

All in all it's ok for the price but miles away from what Associated used to sell. Hope they don't start going cheapo now they are producing in the far east...
