My (almost) new original 4tec

[NHRCA_Revo]

I just bought this 4tec, mint condition. Not even broken in yet. These arent my pics but they are the pics the guy i am buying it from gave me. I will post my own pics once i get it, he's gonna come by around 5 today :D :D :D


Oh yeah, and just to have a little fun how much do you think I payed for it? :)

[Fiero_Man_121]

sweet! :cool:

cant wait, what are you gonna do with it, anything crazy? maybe a rally or truck conversion? hint hint :D

[NHRCA_Revo]

Im not gonna make it a drag car and race down at the drag strip with my friend and dad because that wouldnt be totally awesome. Who wants to race Bigblock Chevys and Porsches, puhleaze ;)


No, I really dont know what im gonna do with it yet, but that would be cool. I'll probably keep it the way it is and go to a few parking lots first

Haha! My friend is going to pick up a eletric 4-tec here soon for $80. RTR ready to go. It should be a fun drag racer with a Mamba max ESC with a 7700kv motor!

I wanna do some research on getting a 3 speed transmision for it, they have alot of potential to make better

That way it would be more even if I race the Porsche :)

[NHRCA_Revo]

Runs like new, even though it was raining outside I ran it in my garage for a few minutes.... just needs a little idle tuning, but it was a good deal regardless :D

[Maxx man]

Im gunna guess $100... looks cool man!

[NHRCA_Revo]

Im gunna guess $100... looks cool man!

[Maxx man]

[Fiero_Man_121]

[NHRCA_Revo]

$75?......

[roadrunnr43]

[LSXEric]

[NHRCA_Revo]

im torn between $50, and $80

alright you were close enough :p i paid $60 :D

[Lyric]

im planning on gettting one and turning it into a race car to race in the nitro 200mm class

[savage24x]

I paid 88.50 for my bandit on ebay. I've poured over $300 in it and i dont even have a job. Im 13

[NHRCA_Revo]

how do you put $300 in it and not go brushless? LOL

[Fiero_Man_121]

its not hard at all, i can knock that out in a few good trips to the hobby shop :D

[NHRCA_Revo]

If I ever got an xl5 my first upgrade would probably be a brushless system, then build off of that to upgrade commonly broken parts, shocks always come to mind :(

[Fiero_Man_121]

i still like my brushed systems, ive got enough of them that i can just mess around and to heck with fixing them:D

[NHRCA_Revo]

well now all of a sudden it dosent go anywhere. I checked everything but found no pebbles, transmission is a little rough but not bad, any suggestions

[roadrunnr43]

we could use info. does the steering work? electronics work? does it even turn on?
have you figured out what it isn't?

[NHRCA_Revo]

yeah everything else works, ill explain tomorrow im tired
