CSO RX8, MRX5 options & exhaust seals

CSO release new option parts for the Xray RX8, Mugen MRX5 and general use. The front universal swing shafts for the RX8 are machined from high-grade spring steel, hard coated and allow the use of either wheel nuts of quick change systems to secure the tyres. Made for the RX8 and MRX5 are lightweight front oneway steel axles. Again the parts are hard coated to maximise durability. Also new are high temperature silicone engine gaskets for .12 and .21 engines. The durable purple-coloured parts make for a tight fitment of the manifold and pipe to avoid performance losses caused by insufficient sealing.

Hot Bodies TCX option parts

Hot Bodies release a bunch of option parts for the TCX electric touring car in the form of a new narrow chassis, top deck, shock towers and more. The optional 2.5mm narrow chassis provides a more centralised location of the chassis components for improved performance while the 2.5mm upper deck is 0.5mm thicker than the standard deck for less torsional flex of the chassis on high-traction surfaces. To go along with the new chassis parts, Hot Bodies also release updated front and rear shock towers with shock mount holes that sit 2mm lower than on the standard items. The modifications give extra cornering grip and further tuning capabilities. Also available are new FR and RF pivot blocks with +0.5 and +1.0 degree settings, new rear pivot blocks with 3.5 and 4.0 degree settings and new 46mm universal drive shafts machines from high-quality steel for added durability.
