今年再從好兄弟手上得到一架Super Astute parts車！

但由於手頭好多Astute件，所以砌下砌下就完成埋佢啦！

車架已經好快手完成！不過都話呢架係parts車，推桿冇晒，好多都係o係現成parts堆搵出o黎，不過推桿呢D星星咁多年變化都唔大，要搵替代品一D都唔難，有時間我會配番一set反牙......
同埋爭左個頭C座，不過好彩佢同Astute係一樣o既，所以o係之前o既parts當中輕易搵到！同埋四條油壓其實本來係Top Force一類o既膠油壓，手頭上冇，所以都搵埋Astute o既原裝膠油壓頂住先......

新舊Astute對照！
Astute(左) VS Super Astute (右)

除左大家都係用同一set FRP板之外，新車同舊車都有幾多分別o架！Super Astute的頭尾A臂屬新設計，原裝不再設防傾桿，而頭轉向杯已改為一件過o既賽鋼加串邊。

另外亦由橫電擺放改為打直擺，試過位係可以擺到現時流行o既鋰電o既！咁就唔駛擔心電源問題啦！

至於車尾，Astute用上以推桿調整Toe-in的設計已取消，改為用上原裝toe-in杯就算(其實仲好啦，唔會over-design，又減輕重量)。而上次用大量 730 bearing 連接推桿o既設計已經不存在(除左頭C座因為用番上一代o既設計而維持要涉730 bearing之外)，而用上現行車款最常見o既波頭。

波箱設計差唔多，不過架車跟左冇記錯係option的限滑，咁波箱保護又好好多啦！何況手頭已經有一份spare parts，必要時可以換！

至於個殼.......好兄弟俾我o既時候已經唔係好靚，仲要係青BB(唔關上手事o既，返o黎已經係咁)，我會將佢變返原裝白色！

Stay Tuned Men!~~
