mini 4wd motors

i have some of those tamiya mini 4wd motors and i was wondering if anyone has put any of these into their mini x. i know that they are meant to only run on 2 cells, but if you supply adequate cooling i assume you can run it on 4 cells. after looking at the armatures of these motors i noticed that they were like 10 turn motors!!!!! compared to the 70 turn you get with the car. these also have ball bearings. i know that this would eliminate the 4wd and i am bummed to remove it but think of the possibilities. without the 4wd you would have alot more room to place electronics. i took out the front diff and noticed that in that this space where the diff was, you can place the servo instead. the only problem i am not sure of is the motor getting too hot and possiblly melting the chassis. if anyone has any input on this please respond, thanks
