d4 bits and hop ups

[bryn]

hi all. i am a newbie again after recently digging out my old bosscat. i have just purchased a used d4 from this forum to replace it and i need a front bumper and undertray for it. where can i get them from?

also as a non wce car, are any of the wce bits worth upgrading to? and at what ££? is a one way kit worthwhile? i see that the hb uses a different style of one way system to my bosscat which uses one-way driveshafts.

i am using a 8x2 motor in it at the moment, is this ok & what pinion?

last question i promise-is it worth upgrading to li-po and brushless and how expensive is it and where from ect.

sorry for all the questions and thankyou in advance.

it all depends how seriouse you are gonna be racing if you are then the wce slipper clutch would be the only thing to do first of then the shocks as for converting to lipos yes defintly in the long run they are much cheaper than sub c cells and they are agro free.

thanks stu,

TBH i don't even race at the moment, i only use it for messing around on at the local park. once i get a bit more used to it, i'll probably go to a track, are there any near northampton area? i'm in towcester. what do i need li-po wise? will any li-po fit? connections etc will my speedo work with it(m-tronics viper)?

if i am only using it at the park, should i just sell it and get a nitro car? would i get more bank for my buck?

cheers,

great stuff!! silverstone's only 5 mins away. i'll get myself over there. i'll be scared of crashing into people though

is the d4 based on a b44? they look very similar. as does the jconcepts car? to my eyes anyway.

cheers,

I wish my track was 5 mins away instead of 45
