Status: offline 		it goes really well handles fantastic i would really recommend it.
ive fitted bearings to all the hubs and steering posts.
it is really a great car.
changing these parts made the otherwise tight parts really free.
i also replaced the turnbuckles for titanium ones.

Status: offline 		Not too sure. I've heard that it was similar to 10.5 turns. Don't quote me on it, though. I do know that the torque is very good and top speed will be in the low 30's. It leaves me wanting a little more top speed. I think a novak gtb system it the way to go. I will be getting a 5.5 or 6.5 velociti motor in the near future. This motor will most likely end up in a stampede or other basher.

Status: offline 		Hi everyone.

The 5800 motor in 4wd is compariable to a 12 turn motor or in some cases a really hot 19 turn .

For your SB V1s, do you have the FAQ that goes over alot of mods you can do to get the most performance. If not, contact me.

Status: offline 		Any of you guys out there with a V1 need to go over your drivetrain with a fine tooth comb before going brushless. I run the 4300 with the Sintered Rotor in my V1 and had to tune it alot. The sintered rotor carries alot more torque and harder braking. I run 3 shims on the right side of the rear diff and a 2-1 combo in the front (facing the rear of the buggy). I run the slipper semi tight, with the largest spur and a 23 tooth pinion. The diffs are really tight and smooth (lots of TLC when assembling). Just practicing in my backyard I'm getting alot of speed out of the buggy. I think I may need a one-way in the front, because on jumps I feel like the car is binding the drivetrain on a nose-over landing.

Status: offline 		I'm now running a mamba max and nemisis blue 6s in my V1. The diffs are shimmed and boiled. I also added 3/8" brass collars to the outdrives. I also coat the ring and pinion gears with dry teflon powder to keep away dust.

No problems after almost two months now. I had an SS5800 system in it for over a year with no problems. I'm still on the same diffs.
