the picture is SG shaft but it is just a picture taken over from internet, not the real engine he has, so trust the description over the picture please

Well guys i am starting to get tired looking for a good engine and a good price. I think i am just gonna get a .18 TZ $180 from my local hobbie shop. What do you guys think about the vantage carbon pipes? Worth the money? They have them for $75-$80. Or how about i different pipe?

Thanks for everyones help.

Looks like you have a naked Spektrum in there. Motorman says this receiver is very susceptible to problems from fuel saturation. For those of you in Rio Linda; if it gets wet with fuel it will be FUBAR. Wrap it with a latex product, I got a bag of balloons at CVS for 99 cents!

Yeah i saw they were talking about that on the g4s thread. I will do it soon. As for a engine i bought it today. RB V.12 5 Port with TM K6001 pipe. What do you guys think about that setup? I think this setup is gonna make a lot of people but make me

You might have a faster car but doesnt mean you will be faster around the track.
