Default ESC system

Okay i spent the whole day researching and looking for a ESC and Motor. What I came up with is I am way over my head. So that lead me to maybe buying a set combo. When I was looking for that, there were so many variants I just didn't know what to do. So I reach out to all of you wise drivers. Help me invest in the right electronics.
This build is going to be used for a Touring/Drift car. 1/10 scale. So far I ordered these parts, the TT-01 ES as the chassis and DX3c/sr300.
Soon to be ordered is a LiPo around 5000 mAh
I would like a programmable ESC but this is not necessary.
I don't know much about technical aspects of the ESC so I'll leave you to that.
I would like the motor to be at around 4000 kV.
Both Brushless.
Nothing High end or Low end either. This is not going to be a competition car, and if I wanted cheap parts, I would of ordered an RTR.
Thank you ahead for all the help.

Mamba Max Pro 4600? Or for cheaper, a Sidewinder 4600... The Mamba Max pro is nice though because if you want to race, you can buy a normal sensored motor and it's a very good controller with sensored motors as well.

Does anyone recommend Speed Passion?

How about the Novak GTB 2 Sportsman for the ESC
and Tekin Redline Sensorless 448 4800kV

Actually what is the sensor inside the Sensor-ed motor? Temperature? ( I'm new to this, don't Judge)

I've seen to many gtb2 troubleshoot thread poping around. Whats up with that?

Yea I got a Mamba Max Pro from a user on here.
Now all is needed is a motor.

What is your price point? We have many systems, both new and factory RMF (with new factory warranty) that can be tailored your requirements and pocket-book....

I wasn't really sure about my price range. I don't mind spending money on good parts, but on the other hand I got bills to pay. I learked around the classifieds and ebay. Got Castle MMP here on rctech and Castle 4 pole 3800kv. but I think I overdid my self with that motor. that's a bit to much for a touring/drifter. isn't it?

Depending on your required application and use, I would recommend the Tekin system.
