Looking for best performance out of 18ss

[bigsouljaslim13]

I'm looking to upgrade my rs4 3 18ss a little more I've already got

s3003servos ( i was thinking about getting a heavyduty metalgear)
carbon fiber upperdeck
venom nimh hump pack
v groove rims
pro molded foams
ths tuned pipe
highflow air filter
racingclutch
i converted it to rotostart

and i still have the stock gear ratio u think i wonder if i should put a higher second gear ratio in for top speed?


i was thinking about carbon fiber shock towers and threaded shocks and maybe swaybars next, I'm just trying to set this thing up and then I'm going to put my money into the savage fund:fro:

what do you guys think?

Hi there,


Swaybars......NO
Shocktowers.....suuure
Alum shocks.....not mandatory (especially for just bashing) but nice to have

I have an 18ss and love it...

Right now i have just:

swaybars
aluminum turnbuckles
threaded shocks
highflow air filter

I barely run her though got her 3 weeks ago, painted 4 bodies still brand new not run yet.
I'm brand new to this hobby and loving it.
How do you like the rotostart compared to the pullstart..... I read it broke so i guess thats a dumb question.
How much did the roto start cost you and was it worth buying the battery and charger for it.

thanks and enjoy,
Mark

I have a rotostart, back plate, 7.2 battery as well as the charger, i converted to pull start I just wasn't satisfied with the performance of it. Also mainly cause I'm forgetful and i never remembered to charge it. Ill let it go cheap but resonable lemme know... [email protected]

hi,



I thought I'd put a pic of mine up here for Sh^%s and giggles since i finally got some pics of it this week....I went with FUNCTIONAL upgrades...none of the alum bulkheads, arms, etc as those don't have any performance benefit....too bad I dont use it anymore. Its a very fun basher.
