Welcome, welcome welcome!
The bits are great...I myself started with the Skyline set....Then my newest and current car is the Whit Impreza.
Look around for upgrade motors....
Toyeast is good to buy from, Quest For Madness is a good place to do mods, and so is RCMod.
Ooh! and don't forget about here!

well the first thing to do is motor swap your car probobly brings a stock 1.6 or 2.2 you should upgrade it to a 4.0 or 4.2
they sell them here in the part sections but the highest are the 3.8 they are still very good

The Skylines and Impreza's come with 1.0's....Pure Crap.
Get a 4.2....
4.2s are from ToyEast....
Have fun!

phast motors are good and get some suspension springs for better handling. here's the link to the mods pages

i'd say get a 4.2 and gear set from toyeast.com that will fulfill your speed needs

lol you probly getting a bit racer 3.0 motor sent to you. dont waste your money on a phast motor get the king set that comes with 2 4.2's from toyeast for $4.05 you can pic up a 200mah batt there and if you want to order from this site the r-spec is sooo much better than a 3.8

sooo you want a bling bling vrooom vroom car heres what you need. quad cell with 200mah batts(off the batt should give you 12mph+ speed) some underglow, a 4.2 pro motor, 3:43:1 kit racer gears, hard tires in front and soft in back, some alloy rims, probly need a wheelie bar with a quad cell,oh and a nice huge ass ricer spoiler to top it off

warning its not my falt if you take off and hit a wall and your whole front end is smashed in

Where do you get 3.xx:1 gears!? 8.xx:1 is considered "fast" so 3:1 must be insane so long as you have enough torque to drive it (you will with 4.8 volts I'm sure!)

As for the rest of that post...

...
D. A. M. N. Damn.

lol.

3:43:1 kit racer gears?

Would a 4.2 motor pro be able to move that around a flat platform?

in an otherwise unscathed, stock bit? most likely not. if so, it would probably be laggy. with multiple batteries it would probably be balls out fast.

My dual cells can't realy get a 3:1 gear ratio going. Maybe a tri cell or higher.
