Best Way to spend 100 bucks on a Stock T-maxx

[shortysman999]

I was wondering what the best hop-up for a completely stock
T-maxx would be if I wanted to spend about 100 dollars. It should be somewhere in that price range. I was thinking about upgrading the suspension arms. Are the Proline one's any good

Thanks

2.5 TMaxx or older .15 Pro style?

Buy some some fuel so you can run it to find out what you like and don't like.

HMMM, how about some aluminum body shocks and stiffer springs. If you have $$$ left over a different tooth clutch bell or an RRP Dbl Disk slipper.

what about the .15 for me here pretty soon. Getting one from a friend I think he wants me to go broke

#1. RPM stuff......

OR Shocks, tuned pipe That's all i can think of right now. $100 is enough for a full set of RPM arms, shocktowers and a few of their other stuff.

spend you money on a set of aluminum shocks.
the stock shocks suck ass and will pop over and over

I bought BigBore shocks

the springs that come with the big bores are rediculously soft and useless. I replaced 4 of the shock springs with the original t-maxx springs and put the biggest spacer on it and the other 4 with even stiffer springs. I get a good smooth, controlled ride and i can practically jum anything without breaking the shocks

I would have to agree with SDMaxx. I believe you can get everything from RPM for your T-Maxx for about $100.

Or you can go with Al shocks and stiffer springs. The total cost is about $100. If you go with shocks I would go for the Dynamite threaded shocks and Trinity Springs. You won't blow shock caps on these shocks.

IMO, the best place to start would be a good set of shocks and springs. I really like the Dynamite/Losi aluminum threaded body shocks, with trinity blue springs. You should be able to get them for your $100 budget. This will be a great improvement over the stock ones.

I'd recommend reading WoodiE's Top T-Maxx Hop-ups!

If its stock, then these parts are a must!
