Hello guys,
I'll get a V1RRR WCE soon!
I want to get an engine but i'm fairly new with on roads. So I pretty much have no clue what's good. Okay I want something that's not too crappy. I used to race 1/8 buggy I have a MBX-5 with a RB C5 and I love Italin engines!
But since now I am in Taiwan. I can get O.S for pretty good price. So give me point outs!
thanks a bunch!

Yeah, please define your "Fortune".....some ppl can spend $350 with $200 of modification plus full options of 1 single .12 size engine without even blinging their eye....can you?
If you want something that you can run again...I think Nova Rossi LL or RR, Mugen X12, RB V12, Mega 12 series, OS 12TZ series.......all are below $300 but above $200 dollar (ok, OS is $190..) I think those enignes will get you started since you have no problem to spend $450 for a world champ car...
