Some Advice needed On brushless truggys

[J1A1H]

Ok, Well i have a few questions.... My friend doesnt have the cash to get a flux but really wants to get into the RC Game. I know a little about whats out there but not sure on availabity of hop ups and potential etc......

I'm looking for a reliable brushless truggy which is affordable.
Runs fast, bashs hard and comes back for more and has potential for upgrades.
I would prefer something 4wd but i have only been able to find RWD truggys.

He doesnt race and only bashs... Likes top speed as well as hitting the jumps in the woods...

He would eventually like to try and put torq2200 conversion and MMM if these conversions are possible on truggys... ( i noticed they have their motors mounted right at the rear where a wheelie bar would go) Doesnt seems safe...

we were looking at hellfires, firestorms and rustlers.

Advice would be great... plus if you have seen and ridiculously hopped up truggys which show the potential of a particular model, please post em

THANKS A LOT

Josh i would recommend the Losi 8T 2.0 and convert it to electric. I would get the race rollar which runs about 599-700 dollars depends where you get it or who hooks you up. Then get the losi electric convertion kit which is like 70-80 dollars then get the castle 2200 esc and motor. I raced one set up perfect it is on youtube ill post the link later because I'm at school and the internet doesnt let me on youtube
