I finally bought some upgrades for my TT and I was skeptical at first, but wow, I'm lovin' it now. Don't really want to drive it because the parts are awesome.


First, I upgraded the motor to a 17X2 with the Tamiya metal motor mount:


I also upgraded to the aluminum steering kit; wow, everything is so much tighter now


I also installed the carbon fiber upper brace. I compared it with and without it and with it, the car is unbendable. It stays straight reagarless of pressure I put on it. Without it, the body seems a bit flimsy.



I have a prop shaft in the mail and it was too late to do the bearings. By the way, how long does it take to install all of the metal bearings? Just curious. Did you guys notice a difference.

O yea, and here is the new body I painted with some sweet rims I love; super deep dish. Don't laugh, I know it looks a little funky:
