Default Super nitro & RS4 parts source?

Anyone know a good place to obtain parts for HPI Super nitros & RS4 2s?, besides ebay. I hate bidding.

You can get parts thru tower. Thats where I was getting mines from but if you plan on keeping that car, I would try to stock up because from what I understand, within the next few months, HPI will stop making parts for those cars. I stocked up a few weeks ago with about 400 in parts but then again, I own 4 racer2s and 2 super nitros. I got mostly belts, pulleys, diffs and other odds and ends. Parts like dogbones, a-arms and a few other parts from the rs4-3 are the same, so you might not want to get those parts. If you have a super, I would get wheels, because wheels will be one that will be hard to find.

Got_to_100_now_die_hatin [],that's a scary thought. I'm trying to restore the rs4 2 and trying to make a speed demon out of the Super Nitro.Is there a source for after market parts?
Thanks,

Brooklyn hobbies, Bruckner hobbies and Wolfpack radicals all sell aluminum hop-ups for the supernitro. I'm in the p[rocess of hopping mine up now. Just google those names for the links.
Good luck!!!!
