    I don't think their are any other pinions for the SS tranny.I think Ofna makes a tranny for the SS and it has some different spur gears but the tranny is expensive

    Hi there its been a while since I post on here, just wanted you to know that I just got my new Fantom Fr.15 n/p .
    I also got a fantom tuned pipe but it looks like I got to put it up side down, the problem I have is that the wire mount wont fit, any suggestions?. I also ordered a jr xs3 but it havent arrived yet.
    When I get all in the car I will take pictures to see what you think of my car.

    The pressure fitting will be up side down on the pipe.The RS4 3 is the only car with this type of setup so finding a tuned pipe that fits right is kinda hard.They should have gave you the right pipe holder with the pipe.It should just be a metal rod that you need to bend so it fits right.It's not to hard to do but the fitting will up side down.If your really concerned about it you can drill a hole in the pipe and put another fitting on top and block off the other one but I wouldn't do it.Just turn the pipe a bit so the pressure fitting is as high up as it can be without causing any problems with the Exhaust

    I dont mind about it being upside down I just wanted to know if there was another way to do it besides bending it. I have other pipe but I dont think it works as good as the fantom one. The other pipe I bought it from ebay from a guy that made them I think he called the company ACE racing. It is better than the stock and sounds really cool but I dont think It stands a chance against the fantom and other BRAND pipes.

    Mugen has a shaft drive setup similiar to the rs4 ss. So someone might start making more pipe and manifold sets, since there's more than one car with the right side engine setup.
    THS has pipe and manifold setup for the RS4 SS, but its only for side exhaust engines on Tower Hobbies website. I haven't been able to find a complete manifold and pipe setup for rear-exhaust engines. I'm using the nitro MT manifold that HPI just recently put out.
    Aside from the fuel leaking from the C-VEC pipe that I use, that works ok too.

    I figured I would give you guys a looksie at mine. Nothing special, just an RS4 SS with an OS TR .12, CVEc pipe, and Hot bodies upper deck. Runs pretty nice.
