Default help me identify this nitro buggy

hi all,
i have been given the lovely task of fixing my friends r/c car. All i know is this....

its a 1/8th scale nitro
21 sized engine with a pipe.
it is 4wd
it has a main spur gear (see pic) with a square drive on one side with a through axle.
it has a carbon fibre chassis and no body, although the body mounting posts are still fitted.
It came with a schumacher transmitter.

I am after a new main spur gear for it.

Can anyone shed any light on this car????
I have pics of the relevant parts but i am unsure how to load them onto here?

To upload photos, there is a link below the textbox that says "Click here to upload images and files!". It's only available when you start a new post or when you hit the "reply" button. It doesn't show at the bottom by the Fast Reply textbox.

Could be an early mugen buggy. Pretty sure its a force engine. My brother got given one a while ago thats very similar or the same, I remember it made mugen written on some of the plastic parts but unsure of what model it was. The engine was identical to that one, I still have the carby here off it. Stuck a different carby on it and got it going and hocked it off.

Nice on! I will look into it. The engine seems fine. It's just the main spur gear that needs replacing. Did you say you have some sk
spares for it?
