Just curious, does anybody out there know what hop ups are good choices to get that will really affect the performance of the nitro RS4 RTR. Not just bling but real performance inhancing parts. Thanks.

The woven graphite upper deck,and woven graphite front and rear shock towers are good choices.They shed some wieght and stiffens up the car.

a tuned pipe, and different gearing will make the biggest difference

i have to agree.i have the 2sdp tranny, racing clutch, and the tuned pipe and they make a world of difference.

I have different gearing and the 2 speed, working on getting the clutch, just wondering though, do they make a 3 shoe clutch for these or are they all just the 2 shoe? And the tuned pipe, were and how much are these? Thanks for everything guys. I will sure look into the graphite for it too. What about CVD's? Or the dual rear exhaust? I know I said not bling, but if I go with a new tuned pipe I thought that it might be a good choice too. Or not? Thanks again.

they are all 2 shoe clutches because of the flywheel mounts, the hpi racing clutch works just great so i would get that, and ths racing makes some good pipes, and rd logics which is what i have and it works great, they are generally $50-60, you can buy some cvd's off of tower from i think MIP or hotbodies, hpi's might be on there too, and dual exhaust imo is kinda stupid, but i know tsais sells a rear exhaust kit

btw bash-m-up, you open the 22nd to go bashing?

I should be Apollo, right now I am out of town and I should be back on the 18th. So I should be good to go after that, but just email me after that and I will get back to you asap, so we can hook up. I am using a public library terminal to check up on everything I got going right now, this is so sad.lol
