RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread
well if i had a small car and went mudding with it i would do it in either the subaru impreza or the subaru sti. both 4wd and both were in rally competitions. although i would think the impreza would need a suspension tweak to raise it alittle. its to low the way it comes

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread
Hey MT2 GURUs. I have had a MT2 for a while now and I was thinking of upgrading to a new engine. I have a new traxxas 3.3 engine sitting and thought this might be a badass hopup for my basher. Is there any one out there that has done the same? Any thoughts? I never race my MT2. Strictly jumping and bashing is how I drive my truck.
Thanks for the help.

someone on here did that once but he showed a video and it looked like it was lacking top end, i think the os 18cv-r is a much better match for the mt2

The Savage transmission will not fit with out major modifications and so far I have never see it done. No it is not a drop in. I have a Savage and a MT among others. I believe some of the on road car transmissions will work. Have no need for one my self. I hear off road they do not hold up well as you do away with the slipper clutch.

no a revo tranny wouldnt work either, cause it has an electric shifter that you have to plug into something and if its not plugged in then it wont shift gears
