wheres the mugens?
so i havnt seen much mugen talk here, how come? i just got a 5t prospec, ill be running it for awhile... anyone got any advise?
im waiting on an order of parts now, but itll be running in a few days. ive got black lpr wheels and bow ties on the way, along with the dace rear skid, a wing, and some bushings n stuff.... ive got the bronze bushings already. im workin on a bce chassis at the moment.[8D]
so whats everyone running for rear toe plates.. the m2c looks cool, and so does the adjustable fioroni. anyone have any experience with either?
im running a lipo pack and a modded 528xr, the mill is smooth now, not a sledge hammer like a stocker! i ran it back to back with my ninja 28 and i prefer the 528.
i hope i like this mugen.. ive driven them a few times and liked the way they handled.. it was this or the ocm truggy, but i couldnt find the ocm for sale yet. i kinda wanted a hyper, but the parts support isnt that great so far. so i chose to take the safe road that i knew the aftermarket was strong for.

there was a mugen thread on here somewhere. I remember how I posted on it a few times because I was going to get a mugen too, but went with the st-r instead.

I'll assume you're joking, qaiz.
revopqrs - One of the reasons you don't see too many posts about the Mugen MBX5T is that guys don't have any problems with them. You might find some posts about the engines in their 5T's, but rarely the 5T itself. The 8ight-T and others seem to have some problems that keep the forums busy. Mugen does not make an RTR either. That saves some problems as RTR's are rarely assembled properly.
