what are some parts i should get for my car? please

i got the golden horizons cooling head for it, but now ive got an os .18 cv-rx. i also upgraded the tranny to metal gears. another good one is the associated rc10gt fuel tank (requires slight modifications to mount) and possibly a new body to give it more custom looks.[8D]

My LHS Stocks the OS .18 CV-R I looked at the stats for it on the offical site and it looks no different then the CV-RX is the difference simply the Pull starter?

Thanks

That should be the only difference, unless one is a slide carb.

i was just telling him that thats what i have, not that he has to buy the one with the pull start.

Right Cool thanks for the help

yeah whenever you see the x in the name of an os engine it just means that it has the pull starter; r means its the "racing", or high performance version

you should change some of the weaker plastic parts to metal parts

Get metal diff and idler gear for sure. I have them on order and I just melted my 4th diff gear today. GRRRR![:@]

im looking to hop-up my evader, too. i got it all taken apart after i "accidantally" got it under water. the servos are not working anymore, i managed to save the reciever. im looking to get all aluminum parts except for the body mounts and shock tower probably. anyone have a link to where i can get metel gears for the tranny?

thanks

Towerhobbies has them. I had links on your last thread about hoping-up your evader. They'll be in stock this month. Tower says Early May, hopefully that's true.

thanks for the link STWNNR,
is all that is needed for a more durable tranny? if so, i'll add them to my "hop-ups needed". what is the idler's purpose anyway. ive wondered about that.

thanks

I have a HOP-UPS folder on my favorites too. If you don't have an aluminum idler gear and an aluminum diff gear, then the idler gear will get eaten up. That's all for a durable tranny, maybe carbide thrust and diff balls, but I think steel will do.

Prolly a gear ratio thing I would think. Anybody else have a better idea?? lol

thanks for the info guys, gives less confusion to me. i got the evader for my first rc and only broke a rear hub and the front a-arm.
quick fix with a drill and some string.
