RX8 2023 Features:

Redesigned chassis with narrow front suspension pivots to increase stability and traction.

More cutouts in the chassis create greater flex in desired locations.

Additional cutouts in the chassis improve engine cooling.

Composite material suspension arms combined with improved flex in the central chassis maintain stable suspension geometry while flex is transferred through the chassis and radio plate to maintain traction.

Narrower front suspension mounts for improved geometry.

Longer lower suspension arm mounting supports compensate for the narrower suspension mounts to maintain ideal shock geometry.

Lower mounting supports without eccentric geometry make it easier to adjust suspension stops.

Updated aluminum front body mounts with a lower design.

Updated front upper clamps feature integrated upper shock mounting positions, eliminating the need for a separate front shock tower.

Innovative upper front shock mounting directly on the upper clamps adjusted with spacers provides more flex in the front suspension.

Updated front upper clamp for easier flex adjustments. Greater stability with the clamp installed, more traction and steering when the clamp is removed.

Lightweight design of the front upper arm support.

The ultra-compact and super-light receiver box moves weight down and closer to the center of the chassis.

Radio plate with revised servo mounts moves the throttle servo further back with a more central location for the receiver box.

Shorter servo mount support with key lock design.

Updated rear aluminum mounts have a 2 mm adjustable wheelbase forward/backward for easier traction tuning, depending on track conditions. Front position for more traction, rear position for more stability.

Rear suspension mounts and milled pockets in the chassis plate reduce the lower pin position by 1 mm to generate more traction when needed.

Front and rear stabilizer bar bushings for different stabilizer bar thicknesses.

Updated stabilizer bar wire shape to match the updated bearing bushings.

Fully ventilated brake disc included in the kit.

2-speed axle adapter for the rear belt pulley uses longer pins for greater reliability.

Single-direction carrier to reduce rotating weight.

Redesigned guide pins provide smooth movement of the brake pads.

Return spring washers improve brake pad efficiency by preventing spring lock and maintaining free brake movement.

Redesigned 9 mm wider rear PUR belt for increased reliability and lifespan.

Lower front bumper with updated mounting positions to fit all types of racing bodies.

Aluminum front body posts with eccentric mounting allow for forward or backward mounting positions.

Longer lower front pivot balls to compensate for the narrower front suspension pivot and maintain necessary width adjustments.

Graphite upper rear arm supports with more clearance over the rear belt.
