Hi there!
I did the kids thing too so know how you feel! Used to race the ZX-R back in 1992 as a 10 yr old!
Anyways.
The ZX is fine to run on modern electrics but dont go lower than a 10.5 turn brushless motor (unless you're racing you wouldn't need to).
Any modern Kyosho 1/10 4wd wheels will be a direct fit and most people use the Schumacher Yellow pins or mini-spike tyres with chubby foam inserts.
Keep the original wheels if you can as in good condition they're worth a lot!
With regard to a shell, just buy an original repro from team bluegroove.
Most parts are hard to come by but if you're willing to part with serious dough you can get most stuff.
If I were you tho, if I had no interest in vintage RC I would wash/clean it, fit a repro shell n graphics and sell the lot to a collector for 300 notes and buy a RTR kit for a ton!
Hope this helps
Nick
