my black skyline stutters bad after going about 10 feet but it doesn't stop it also seems to want to turn by it's self my first black skyline i returned because it wouldn't reverse.

the thing with xmods is the engineers which built it didnt think about some of the problems it may have like if you hit into something. the battery clips if you look closely leave about 2-3 milimeters of open space between the clip and the batteries this can result in the batteries popping out and at some points temporarily loosing contact which may result in your car just stopping for no reason. as for the stuttering...
sometimes its the crystal sometimes its batteries sometimes its goin out of range sometimes interference i would check all those things. my biggest piece of advice would be just to not hit anything lol

i noticed that to my friend and i where racing and hit together and noticed one of my battery's popped out i thought the car was done when it first happened lol.

i also noticed today my black skyline has the insulation missing (not really missing but all cracked to where you can see bear wire)on the black wire going from the battery holder to the main board it's on the same side the antenna wire is on when it goes down the rear deck.

my red supra has that glue stuff all over the reciver board or whatever that stuff is they put on the variable coil inductor.

my nsx has no glue or whatever that stuff is they put on the variable coil inductor and it was turned so far from the factory the thing you turn to adjust it was broken this was on the receiver also.

if a wire is stripped and u see bare wire thats not good it could be short circutting i had that once with the metal heat sink.
[edit]

that glue stuff is thermal greece im not sure what happens if there isnt any there

not the white stuff on the fet's it was a rusty colored stuff on the receiver board and it was real tacky feeling to the touch.

Sounds like someone tried the brake stop squeal method to waterproof their XMod, broke it, then returned it, and then you bought it. I'd take it back.
