RE: durability
The mugen pro spec is in a different league of durability. There is nothing that you would need to hop up on it, its parts are already made from the best materials.

HPI Hellfire: Kids 1/10th scale .18 powered toy sold in Halfords and other ropey hobby shops that need to sell trash to keep their profits up.
Mugen MBX5T Prospec: Top of the line 1/8th scale .21+ powered brick that will probably mean you forget thename of the dude behind the counter at your LHS.

RE: durability
Start it low and see what it goes up to. It's a popular truck, you should sell it fast and get reasonable money for it. I agree too, there is absolutely no comparison, the Mugen is vastly superior in every way.
