wanted to know which is better to replace my plastic on RS4 3 ss. should i use aluminum or graphite....

for looks or racing??

Aluminum graphite is way too brittle.

Sounds funny from me since I have bought a Kinwald and Francis and Never broke a part adn had them racing about 6 times but its the truth.

If it is so brittle how come you haven't broke anything?????????????

Carbon Fiber!

Get the graghite shock towers and get the graphite upper deck and save the alloy for a shelf queen.Alloy will add weight to your car and slow it down and in the event of a crash will bend and need to be replaced depending on the grade of alloy you buy.Graphite will also break but is much cheaper to replace and is allot lighter.Keep the plastic A-arms or up-grade to the plastic/graphite ones they sell.I still use the plastic a-arms and all the rest of the plastic parts on mine and see no reason to change them.

was wondering what companies are good for RS4 3 ss hop ups.. i'm fairly new so now lookin around..

Hotbodies makes allot of stuff as well as HPI,GPM Wolfpack Radicals,New Era and a few others.IMO HPI makes the better quality hop ups for the RS4 3 SS.About 90% of the parts on my car are HPI hop ups with the exception of the engine and tuned pipe.HPI parts are inexpensive and are great quality.

thats what im tryin to figure out!?!?

Graphite.it's way lighter and stronger than aluminum and it's gonna make your car lighter

whats a good tuned pipe for rs4 3 ss?

I'm waiting on the THS pipe/header set to come off backorder on towers site.I hear allot of good things from people about these pipes.

i wanted to know if the THS pipes or jus for .15 engines or can i make them work on my .12.. i'm gettin one on ebay for $45 but it says .15 engines

As far as I know it will work on both.I'm using the 12r ss manifold on my fantom engine now so I'm alsmost positive the THS one will work fine.The Pipe itself should work with either engine it's the manifold that i'm not totally sure about.
