That 834 is going to turn out nice. With those dampers, make sure you trim the flash on all the plastic pieces. Delta made those c hubs back in the day and they were a sweet hop up to have. I was lucky enough to score a set from a wreck of an 834 I bought years ago.

Hyeong with all these alloy bits available for the 834 there's no doubt this car would be a little more reliable for the race track.
Good to see :mrgreen:

Good to see :mrgreen:
but, frankly, as I posted before, pargu's parts are little bit heavy for the race, maybe for better steering and durability?
I'v been running few of them with pargu's arm without any issue. and I still think the C hubs are fine too. but they are heavier then other alloy parts from Cross or Suzuki. sorry I'm mumbling to myself

Mine arrived :) Minor filing was needed at 2 spots, less than 0.5mm, you can't really see it.

Precision was great, just like the hottrick front arms I got before :)
