Default Tamiya Astute

Hey There:

I have an Astute kicking around that I'm thinking making functional again. The buggy is in good shape it just needs electronics, spur and pinion gear. Can anybody give me some ideas as to where I'm going to find a spur gear for this vehicle? It doesn't have a slipper clutch but I do believe it was optional at the time. So if Tamiya has a more up to date setup that would be compatible that would work too.
Also.....any idea if a 550 sized motor will fit? I can't see why it wouldn't but I'm no expert.

cheers
