I have just purchased a RS4.2 and this is my first rc car. Besides the one your parents buy you when your 5 and the remote is connected to the car. My friend sold me his old one and now I dont really know what to do with it. The car needs tlc and looks kinda like it is 2 or more cars combined. I get it this monday and there is a good chance the motor has took a dump on us. So which motor wouold you all recomend for a first timer. I saw a ninja motor and wouldnt mind one of those on this little bad boy. I figured that this motor would tear my car in half. How is the avaiabilty of parts? Thanks for the help.

Parts for the RS4 2 may be a little tricky to find, ebay will probably be a good resource for you. The Ninja .12 is a racing engine, it won't 'tear your car apart', but if you are not racing, then perhaps something cheaper with a higher displacement (more torque, less top end) might be more suitable, like an LRP .18 or an OS .18.

thanks, that motor does look good. foxy what do you think of the hot bodies .18 motor?. I have a friend that will sell me one that is brand new in the box for 50 bucks.

i have a rs4-2 and i get everything i need from my lhs im running a older colt.12 right now a hamster in a wheel would be better than the .15 fe(if its the stock motor) i put a os.18 in my rush and it was insane wheelies whenever i wanted em i never tried it in my rs4 but i would say it will scream
