Get some spindles, hubs, packs of arms.. all of which are shared with the pro4.
I recommend the v2 steel front shafts. If you grease up the stock spool it should last decent.

Diff only in rear, front has one way. Hara and Surikarn kits are identical.

Both Speedtech and Stormer are really good about carrying Cyclone parts, even the new Cyclone S parts are now available.

Hi ,
I'd start with the aluminium outdrives and maybe the narrow (1 piece) pulleys
Would have to agree that it is very impressive

yeah,you have to be careful with a strong motor like that.i have been racing with a 4.5 for about 5 months.you need to really pay close attention for it slipping.if thats the main motor you are running,deffinately go for the aluminum outdrives.with that kinda power the plastic ones heat up pretty good and will start to slip.
