Beautiful!! I had one, was dumb enough to trade it. It had a .18 O.S. engine. Look forward to seeing more of your's. Here is what mine looked like;

Nice car...the engine in mine is the stock .15 but that is about the only stock piece left. It probably won't be there long the way I've been going. Big Grin

Obsesive, If you want more speed, you can go with the .18 mentioned, or if you think you may want to race it (since Leisure is making an on-road track as well) you may want to look into the Sirio .12. Firesprink can tell you the engine model. He has the Sirio .12 in his Associated TC3, and runs away from his friends RS4 with the .15

I believe it's the Sirio.EVO .12 outlaw and it's not legal for racin (technically)

or you can get this http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti...XJFY9&P=ML. I cant remember if it was this exact os engine but it supposedly peaks out at over 45,000 rpm and makes killer power for stadium and street cars.

awe, get a real TC engine in that bad boy!....You can't beat a hot little .12 in a TC Smile I would go the extra $50 for the os.12tz if i was thinking about the $180 18tm already.

Since that is a side exhaust car, have you thought about the os18cvrx? it is a killer motor for $99. Your exhaust will bolt right up. I think that would be the best buy. I just sold mine tonight with full exhaust system for $80, had a gallon on it. My neighbor dropped it right into his t-maxx tonight and ran it and it ripped hard.

that would ultimately be the best bet. Why fool around with other motors when you can just drop the best in there and be done with it.

Are you planning to run those wheels and tires or are they just for show? I ask because I have a pair of HG's and the HPI tires don't seem to fit them real well. It's like the wheel diameter is just a mm too small. How are yours fitting? Are those HPI tires?

Oh no, they're not for show...I run them. They have some nicks to prove it.
I am also running HPI tires(super radials I think?) they seem to fit fine, although I did have to re-glue them after some high speed slides (peeled one right off)

I recently put the TZ and a new pipe in Coop's NTC3, and it's a screamer.

We're heading to AJ's this Saturday to kick some DaVito butt.
