Does anyone using a tweakstation like this?
Is it a good investment? I have allready a setup station from integy.
Someone told me this is just for electro cars and not for nitros. Is this true or why is this?

Whoa, never heard of those. But if it can work for electric, I'm sure it can work for a nitro, all it does is show you how evenly weight is ditributed. IMHO it doesn't do much so I wouldn't get one. Unless it was like for $5 or something.

My lhs sells this for about 70 euro (= about 70 USD).
MIP Tweakstation.
Works for any touring car. It sells for about $45, and is a great tool to check your car's tweak. :)
i have one. i have no idea way it would be only for electric. its wheelbase is adjustable and wide enough for a much wider car than my tc3. made very well. get one

I have one I used to use for pan car racing but now it looks like many people are starting to use them for TCs as well. I'm going to dig mine out to help me with my F201 and 414M2 setups.
Doesn't do much???? You kidding me?? Maybe if you bash or near the bottom of the "food chain".... I find it very important to have(or use) one for a pan car. You can get away with using a penny trick with a pan car, but still, the tweak station is the way to go considering it's not that expensive and lasts forever.
I find it less critical for a TC, but it's better to be in balance than not. Close enough works for MOST people... It's not hard to notice a car thats way off tweak. But you'll know it when you get there..
For most people; 0.5 degrees of camber makes no diff, 0.5 degrees of toe makes no diff, 0.5 degrees of castor makes no diff, 0.5 mm of droop makes no diff. 0.5mm of ride height makes no diff, 10-20wt diff in oil makes no diff, another quarter turn on the diff makes no diff. PUT THEM ALL TOGETHER AT ONCE; AND YOU'VE GOT BIG PROBLEMS!
