i have about 400 bucks to blow on my t-maxx. i already have an xtm chassis conversion with a wasp .26 engine and full aluminum bulks. iwas looking at the cyber maxx .21 roll cage, the unlimited engineering widetrac suspension, or to just by more aluminum and performance parts from random companies. which one do you guys think has the bigest cool/performance factor. i need help soon for fear that the hole burnnig in my pocket will light my pants on fire:flamer:8-0
 
If you are a basher then go with the cage

If you are a racer then go with the Racer UE suspension

What do you have in your diffs and tranny? Now might be a good time to upgrade :bling:
 
ill go with the cage cause i am a basher and i got delrin tranny gears and rrp gears with kipster cups in the diffs. even if i get the cage i still got about 120 left, what else should i get (to up my cool factor)
 
Of all your aluminum parts the arms will break quickest.

I would get RPM arms and keep the stock bumper mounts. I'm not sure how impervious the UE suspension is to abuse. It'll be pretty but I would hope the arms last under basher abuse. I bought 6061 alum arms after a stock arm broke. I just know I'm gonna break one of the aluminum ones and I'll have seven arms for sale after RPM replacements go in.

It's good to factor in cheap replaceable weak points in your machine. Bumper mounts are a good weak point to leave as is. RPM skid plates over the stock plates are a good investment.

You don't need reverse, right? I got more.
 
The Cybermaxx Cage wont fit you XTM chassis, so you can cross that one off the list. :shrug:

WOW! You have $400 to spend? well then you must get a traxxas nitro 4tec, this is the finest rc car ever built in the world, you will be so happy! OK,OK, I'm sorry! I can't do that to ya man! Just Playin! Get a ntc3 of course!
 
i will just go with all of the aluminum parts. P.S. i already have a nitro 4-tec and an xtm xterminator.







(the tmaxx is the finest rc machine in the world:worship: )
 
Hey Eddy... those skids dont look like they would protect much... I saw Christians CyberMaxx & those skids are paper thin... I know there some kinda spring steel, but on impact, its still gonna do some damage to your bulkheads... Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm sure you've put them through the test....
 
hey wdavidhicks, u said that u will have 7 a-arms left over? what kind are they? i might be interested.
