Default MBX-4XR Works.. Good or bad?!

some say the kyosho 7.5 is better and other say the EXACT OPPOSITE!
Some say they own both and the mugen is better.
Some say they own both but the kyosho 7.5 is way better!!!
Whats the deal?
I want a buggy so I'm doing research on the mugen and I dont know what to decide!!!

Please help

I like the mugen cause the adjustabllity. The kyosho...You have to buy parts to tune it.

You can not go wrong with either. Kinda like asc or losi. You will hear stuff from both sides. Which one can you get parts for??????

hmm I see how is then.. I really wanna drive one of these things before I buy one.. I'm gonna go to the sugarbowl one of these days and check em out!!

Parts? both really.. with ebay and a hobby store nearby its not really a problem..
and I'm a decent driver, dont really break stuff that easy.

Default Hey Ram

I've been running and ofna mbx...
Me and a bunch of friends are all going to start racing together we have been at the track every weekend for weeks.. and I've been calling and asking evey body i can to find out the scoop on these two machines... the mugen mbx 4 and the kyosho kania 2..
not to mention one freind bought the mugen and the other the kania,,, we bulit them side by side..
I've driven both,,, there both great!
but the mugen from what i've heard is not being made an more..
they are changeing the car completely.. and will be coming out in a few months
who knows if it will be better are worse..
I like the kyosho better. it looks better... has quad brakes and the brakes are easier to adjust.. the suspension feels better.. the diff gears look better to me..
it was hell to bulid...lol..
mugen has much better instrutions! and seperates there parts and screw much better,,
mugen also has a cool split diff.. you can pull out the diff without taking out the center sectiom.. it does have more adjustment in the suspension.. but set up stock ..it doesn't feel like the kyosho
the kyosho's center of gravite is lower and it really sticks to the ground,, all in all I'm buying the kyosho kania 2
if mugen wasn't changing cars right now I'd think about going with them.. but i like to have the latest greatest not something out of production..
just my thoughts
aww.. now for what engine..lol.. to be continued
