New starter

oops looks like i made a bad choice there then! which optional parts does it need then?

The 210 doesn't need a saddle. It can take full length sticks in both rear and mid motor. Admittedly most of us use saddles in them, we just don't need to.....

This is quoted from another thread from my mate Chris who runs an sv2

"the kit setup for the sv2 is way off for astro and I found it very pointy and inconsistent. My car is now feeling much more like it but you will need to spend around £40-50 quid to get the car feeling predictable. I will list the parts you need below then you can start fitting them before we get into the setup side.

Most important is the carbon link mount option set, part no U3998. This is a set of 5 different plates in different lengths for tuning with your camber links. You may stick with the same one from the set but unfortunately they only sell these as part of the £18 set.
- also get hold of some 5degree yokes as these will calm the front end down.
- the standard pistons are also no good so get hold of the 3 hole pistons for front and rear.
- your gonna need to get a set of extra long ball studs also, these come in a pack of 4. I will explain later what these are for.
- finally when using the wider front camber plates I mentioned earlier the standard front turnbuckles are too long so you will need shorter ones. I got the 3mm 1 7/8" titanium turnbuckles fromDMS racing which do the trick but to be honest any 3mm turnbuckle between 45-50mm should do the job.

These items are necessary before you can really start dialling the car in. I hated mine after the first few outings but after a bit of modding its probably the best handling 2wd I've driven.
