Should i upgrade?
I'm planning on buying the Rear Ball Differential and Front One-Way Differential for my HPI Sprint 2. However i don't race so would this even make a noticeable difference? What affects would each type of differential have on my car? Could i just use the Rear Ball Differential for both rear and front? Thanks!

If you're not doing any racing, I wouldn't spend the $$.
I think with ball differential, it allows you to adjust it with different differential fluid.
You won't notice too much noticeable difference.

Ball differentials are adjusted like slipper clutches, not with fluid. Viscous torque sealed gear diffs are adjusted with fluid.

ball diffs are also much more maintenance. If you aren't racing then keep the gear diffs as they are lower maintenance and much tougher.
