You HAVE a N-Rusty!!! Why the hell would you ask us what size engine it is??? Waste of space!! Read the box or manual, and if you can't go to Traxxas' website!

You 'have' a nitro rustler...and your screen name is revokid....

Both have almost the same engine. Almost everybody knows this, traxxas fan or not.

Let me guess....you don't even own an R/C...

The 2.5 is the IQ of the person who started this useless thread.

Acutally, both have the EXACT same engine. I know that and I own a RC10GT.

What does the 2.5 mean then
The 2.5 is the displacement in cubic centimeters (cc's) a .15 engine is 0.15 cubic inches (cu. in.) or 2.5cc's I guess Traxxas used the 2.5cc to make the engine sound more powerful than a .15, even though they are the same size. The "Traxxas TRX 2.5" is just a .15 engine...

I voted .18 because it was such a stupid question. Someone with no clue about Traxxas would know the answer.

The Revo TRX2.5R engine is slightly different to the TRX2.5, the only difference is the machined anodized head vs the cast natural finish head. I will hopefully never own either.

So so so so so so so many people seem to think that traxxas cars have a .25 engine, as they are confused with the whole '2.5' thing.

It makes me dislike the traxxas company for a deliberate attempt to confuse the newbies into buying their products. Though I do like their vehicles, don't get me wrong, not a traxxas bash.

Yes I also agree, too many people believe it is a .25 size engine.

The only company I know that specifies using two different displacement units is K&B. For the outboard engines displacement units are always expressed in cc's and for the inboards it's always expressed in cu in.(Boats) This has a specific use when dealing with two completely different engines, maybe more companies that do this that I am unaware of.

The only reason this isn't 50 page's back or more right now is because dart doesn't know how to read the question before punching in an answer. lmao....3.3
