and mounting that body a question arises.......how far do you think the head from the NITRO engine is gonna stick out of the roof?...

i dunno if it would affect aerodynamics thatt bad. The engine would be in a similar downward sloping profile as the roof end of the s2000. i for one want to try one of those out.. looks sick

Woah. Been wondering how come I haven't gotten any replies from here. Anyway still looking for a linkages to use. Figured I'd use the stock body mounts that attach to the shocks. However, even if I am successful the only thing missing is the pivot action as there is a rod that can move up and down through the rear shock tower. I also noticed on the XR8 you can adjust the linkage from the rear hubs to 2 other spaces. Never really seen it on other 8th onroads. Welp, let me run back to see what I can do since today isn't really a good day for bashing.

Whats a good cheap 3 port motor I can use on the R40?

I need to get a new motor before next months races. Or Ill probably be worrying about my motor flaming out as well they might not let me run my 5 port turbo.

How do you define cheap? <$200?

AI- I would definately go with this engine OStz .12 3 port...

It's a t towers, but it's at $250 USD I know it's a bit expensive at the time, but my R-40 buddies here in Guatemala already ordered 3, so I guess depending on the performance that could be my next engine...

if thats cheap, then mine was real cheap..

Go for the sts d3 or d5. A good friend of mine has it and its a beast. Just make sure you pickup a extra conrod for it. I'll be getting one soon for my r40 also. I still don't know if I should get a g4 though I can get a nice deal for a pro chassis (only 100$) for a roller but I don't know if I should take that plunge. The main thing thats holding me back is I have no I mean NO parts support anywhere around here. But since I'm getting such a good deal I may just rack up on spare parts from tower. HMMM what to do what to do.....

KLANDERMAN

lol.... Nothing that's nitro will be cheap, since I've had engines that pass the $250 marker I felt that this would be way cheaper than a mugen or RB engine... with an over all good performance.
Anyway nitro is expensive, but I love it lol...

nsxshogun

Ohh yea the sts motors are pretty cheap. 150 for close to rb power.

KLANDERMAN

NSX- what brand engine is that, do you have a link?

Well The RD Logics / Team Infinity Motor 312TB. That looked pretty good and its cheap.

My Hobby shop has the TOP TN12 S1 Engine for 159. Im thinking about that one.

I guess im looking to spend about 150. 200 max. I want the os TZ so badly but cannot afford that at all.

Also if anyone has any motors to sell , let me know.

I might let my Nova Rossi NS3 go as I picked up another engine recently. I am running the Texas Biggie this weekend and I want to make sure I want to part with it first.
