My lil bro wants to get T4
can you guys list all the hopup parts availabloe for it??
especially aluminum parts
wut do you guys think bout the T4?

The t4 is a great truck. I will have to dig around for some hopups for it though (none in stock). I am quite sure you could get just about anything in aluminum for it. LMK what you are looking for, if you have an idea, and I can find out about getting some stuff for you.

IMHO i think a losi xxx-t might would be better than a t4. i found that there easier to work on, the kits go to gether a little easier and more reliable.

I like those 2wd 1/10 trucks, and the buggies, too. Would love to have one.

The best hop-up will be a BL :p j/k, I guess there are some wild brushies available.

From what I have read on boards, I think the Asso trannies are 2nd to none. A good thing if you wanna go BL one day.

I'd take an associated over a losi any day. the trannies in the losi trucks can't cope with brushless power. The associated trannies, on the other hand, are tough as nails.

I run a 5000kv 540 brushless motor in a T3 with sometimes 8 cells, the transmission for the T4 I believe is very similar. I've had no tranny problems, ever! Never actually even stripped a spur in this car thanks to the good slipper/solid motor plate. Even with heavy tyres like Masher 2K's I just tighten the diff up a bit and its set.

You can get a full range of alloy bits, mostly everything can be alloy really cheap. If Mike can't sort you out with what you need PM me and i'll let you know where you can pick alloy bits up for them..

Do you know how much I would have to pay for an Asso roller? T3 or T4, I don't mind.

RC-Monster Mike · 07.02.2005, 07:37 PM

HG makes alloy idler for the t3, which makes the tranny bullet proof. Not sure about the t4, though. The t4 uses a GT tranny I believe. I can get the HG parts.

I have a t3 with the factory team chassis that I am not using much. We can talk about it next time we speak. It has the alloy idler gear in it. the diff needs a rebuild(gritty), but otherwise it is good to go.

Dafni · 07.02.2005, 07:42 PM

Okay.

What kind of diff has a T3? Ball diff?

RC-Monster Mike · 07.02.2005, 07:44 PM

yep. Ball diff.

Rtsbasic · 07.02.2005, 07:50 PM

A diff rebuild kit is all of about $6-7, a FT T3 will be a very very competitive racer, with cheap parts.

@ daffni: i have a losi xxx bk edition that is VERY nice and would let it got for 450 shipped. its rtr and i have over 1250 in it. if you are interested pm me:D
