Well guys, I have recently been working on a used RS4 2 which I purchased as basically a stock roller from Parker (HPI Savage 25). I purchased a few hop ups like belt tensioner and so on. A few things to remove some of the slop in the steering. I purchased a O.S. .12TZ engine and Team Orion .12 Pipe and HPI Sub'e Race Impreza body along with much much more. The car was converted to a 2 speed before I received it. I am still planning on upgrading it some more. Im have purchased adjustable alum. tire rids which haven't arrived yet. This thing screams i'm guessing around 60ish. I have roughly 3/8 of a Gallon threw it which is why it is kind of dirty and a few scratches on the lid. Anyhow this is what it looks like.

You need foam tires and a .18 tz :).... nice looking car bud.

Ya Pure the .18tz would be sick in it, however the .12 does a great job. I got a good feeling it runs a top speed in the upper 50's. I raced my brothers 3.3 Jato and kept up very well. The .18 would pull it to speed much better though.

As far as foam tires I have a few sets they just weir out very fast on the road in front of my house.
