RE: OFFICIAL HPI RUSH / EVO THREAD
Hi Guys I got my Rush Evo today from a seller on ebay, i couldnt start it so i took it to the model shop, they said that my engine has no compression, its the first version engine and not the t15 and that the pull start was broke! they did say if i stripped it and had as spares then that would be amount the £100 i brought it for! So i have 2 options, either try and get my moneu back or get a brand new one and strip this one as spares! I cant believe it, its a great looking car too!

I'd ask the ebayer for a refund mate... ya do get some decent sellers or there; but unfortunately there are a few dodgey sellers... if it was sold as a runner and ya paid through paypal ya should get refunded, but it takes a few month to sort a dispute out.. orrrrr ya could use my option.. plan B, go an kick sum ass!!!

i'm thinking of putting purple springs on mine, seems everyones going for these, also note some are moving the battery pack to a humpback in the middle of the chassis, does it make a lot of difference??

Not sure bout that one, i thought it was just to make it a little lighter to help increase the speed.. but ya would ave to change alot of steel parts to aluminium to note any differance,, thats just my thought.. lol
purple springs are the hardest ones, ya can get spacers to make it a little higher.

Afternoon all,
I've got a HPI .15 engine up for sale if anyones interested. It's had about a gallon threw it and runs perfectly. The heatsink is quite badly cracked but that aside it's in great condition. I'll clean, reseal it and put it back to factory settings. Thought I would offer it on here before it goes on eb*y.. I live in Swindon UK.
