Calling on Rc Nuts

[BradZ_09]

Hey all, after taking apart my buggy to replace a clutch bearing, i thought to myself, hey this isnt too hard i could get a new engine if i wanted.
So now its on, what engines will bolt straight in in place of a Force 25??
Something with a bit more punch. Force 28??

i personally would go for a 21, ive got a 21 5 port and my mates got a 30 3 port, im all over him he has so much torque all it does is spins the tires we both have buggys but are not the same, some cars can handle big motors some cant... im not sure the rex x will cope (assuming thats what you have, i cannot think of many force powered buggys besides them)

Thanks mate ill have a look.
No i dont have a rex buggy i have a GV Dominator.
Sure it will bolt in in place of the 25?

 

[crazzy #1]

why not just keep the force then untill it dies then worry about this later?

 

[BradZ_09]

Thats exactly what im going to do.
But those parts say Savage X.
Mines not a savage lol.
Im mechanically retarded so it must bolt straight in.
