Hope this gives ppl an idea of some of the upgrades available for there HPi RS4-3

sry bout the long post but i couldnt help myself lol
 
get some pics of it! my 3ss is near completion waiting on the last few parts to arrive,being impatient sucks! ohhh they sell alota aluminum for this car!:OMG:
 
jones4u think i picked up the same novarossi as u, model #CX12Ps2 side exaust and pullstart.
Is that the engine u have? and if so what do u think of it?? ez to tune?? Race worthy?? cause i have been having seconds thoughts and may exchange it for something else, its only rated @ 1 hp :(
anyone else running this engine?
Also does anyone know anything about the Nitro Star Pro 12R XS (Shaft version) rated @ 1.35 hp I'm thinking of exchanging my rossi for this mill?? lol not sure what to do , it is a Rossi !!
 
no I'm running the OS 15cvr,I personally like the OS but can't say that I've heard anything negative about the novarossi!
 
Scratch the NovaRossi from the list, i exchanged it for a Nitro Star Pro 12R XS rear exaust. Not sure if it was the right move but i feel better about the Hpi engine then the Rossi model i chose (side exaust with pullstart 1hp). The Nitro Star is rated @ 1.35 hp. + i picked up an OFNA 1/10 - 1/8 Heavy Duty starter box which i will be using l8r on when my Ofna Hyper Pro pcr gets in. post some pics once my ride is back together
