Shock Oil Typo???????

[Nitro_Man]

I have a question, in the new issue of RCCA it says Yuichi Kanais' buggy uses 400WT in front and 350WT in back, is that right? Isnt that a little thick? Maby I am retarted but that sounds a little weird to me!

That might be the tranny oil, but that seems too thin compared to the 1000+wt ive heard about...

[BoozzZ]

I think you mean 350 Cps and 400 Cps, which is the same as 35WT and 40WT

[Nitro_Man]

It isn't the tranny oil, and it says WT not Cps so I still think it was/is a typo.

It's not a typo it's just another sstem of measurement. BoozzZ was correct that the weights are basically multipled by 100

35=350
450=450
1000=100

O thanks for the info

WOW....a typo...everyone makes em and it takes one person to point out others mistakes.

Actually, 350 is 30wt, 400 is 35wt.


The formula is (350-50)/10. That is off of the Yokomo USA site. Yok oil is rated in this unit. It is a metric unit of viscosity.
