Do any Pro-4 owners have any feedback on the car's durability? I'm getting very tempted!

has anyone tried fitting a rear derlin outdrive from an Evo III on to a Pro 4?

i found that the front one way fits. can't see why the rear won't. guess its a worth a try.

I think the diff the may fit are from the Alex 'Cuda R2. since they both have identical final drive ratios... 39T beveled gears.. I will have to try it when my car arrives today...

Congradulations, you finally got the car huh? you won't be disappointed. HPI has outdone themselves this time.

let us know how the rear diff goes.

Yea... finally! the wait is over... can't wait to start building it...I've been goin over the manual for several days now... now I can assemble the car blind folded...
What I'm hoping for also is if the 'Cuda diff gears will fit the HPI diffs... the Cuda gears are alot beefier and virtually bulletproof.
I may just use the Cuda delrin diffs and front one-ways if they fits. one thing I like about the 'Cuda one-way diffs is that it has 4 one-way bearsing instead of the usual 2 which makes it very durable. keep you guys informed of the outcome..

Anyone noticed that the screws are protruding from the bottom of the main chassis, i.e. the countersunk holes are not deep enough? Thanks.

Kingcrab: im curious about those RF filters on your pro4. is there a particular way to install them? like i notice that the one is connected to the negative wire lead from your esc to your motor. do you also intall the other one in the negative wire to your battery or to the positive. or does it even matter - meaning you can put them on any wire you wish?

oh, and i know this has probably been asked a million times before but i obviously missed it - where to you get those? i know some rc manufacturers sell them (like yokomo) but im assuming that some electronics shops sell them as well. i know TDK is one of the manufacturers of these filters but i dont really know what type of shop would sell these items.

Electrical/instruments supplier shop. Some computer supplier shops should have them as well. I got mine less than 10bucks for 4pcs.

Anyone kind enough to confirm this please? I think I may have gotten a bad chassis. Thank you.
