yes. you will need them in the long run and it help reduce slop and friction in the drivetrain so its good to get them early and put them in while your building the kit. also the plastic shaft vibrates at high speed and that not good.
drifting on abs or pvc piping will work on any motor and esc combo. theres so little traction and even the stock stuff will do it just fine since your on a budget.

RE: Official Tamiya TT-01 Thread
same recommendation i gave to paulyd. get bearings and the alu prop shaft. IF you want to drift, keep it 4wd, definitely not fwd. Don't know why you would want to do that... If you have pvc/abs piping tires, the stock stuff will just fine until you want to upgrade the motor/esc. I've never heard of an asmann motor...
also proof read your post. It was difficult to read...

where can you buy tt-01 bearings for a below average price, cuz i'm a bargain shopper.

yes, there are great radios for the price. practically glitch free and no need for crystals.

They should fit. The tamiya bodies say they fit both of the cars, so i expect that they would. The tt-01 has 2 different body post options. 1 of them should work
ORIGINAL: SS5800EvADer
will the bodies that fit on the tt01 fit on the tb 02 without modifications
if u do have to do something wut is it

the old ford RS200 rally car? Kyosho used to make a kit, find one of those will be tough and i don't even know if they will fit.
yokomo will fit, but holes may be different

I think the plastic parts are just fine.
1-cheaper
2-lighter
3-tamiya plastic is pretty strong stuff
4-most of them aren't made by tamiya so i can't use them in the races, if you just bash then this isn't important...
