2400KV was the old motor, this is 2750KV which is still under the tolerance of the ESC (>3000KV when using 2-4s Li-Po)
About the spur gear, now that you are telling me it is looking kinda in bad shape, can I trash this one until the teeth fall off or do I risk damaging other things in which case I'll replace it right away?
It's not that the car doesn't get up to speed,from a stop this happens:
If I moderately get on the power, in other words, if I slowly accelerate, the car will get up to full speed no problem
If I punch the throttle to WOT straight away the car will start moving a bit and make a screeching noise (not metal screeching, more like a plasticky screech). Unfortunately I can't give you an audio clip because it's 9 PM here in Italy (I wouldn't be able to capture sound anyways with my crappy s4 mini) and this doesn't happen when the car is lifted off the ground

BTW thanks for taking your time to reply
