RE: I just got a HPI Nitro RS4 RTR 3
yeah, i ahve the same, rs4 evo 3, must say i love it, but dont upgradee gith away, take r time learning about the car, liek not only when u drive it but also when u clean it and play with the car, look were everything is and get 2 know... as 4 hop op parts i think the BEST thing 2 do would b 2 get a new pipe, a polished aluminum, there around 70 bux CDN. aw well try and get a fial safe, it may save u in the long run... if ur racing u may want a new chasis liek the gpm or hpi super chasis. as well if u wanna have fun go 2 a local home depot or home whadware and get plumbing pipe. plumbing pipe/pvc/abs is used on ur rims as tires and there a slippery material which enables u 2 drift. try it out! theres so many different fun things, the list never ends. any questions feel free 2 pm. goo luck
