4 AAAs - R1Wurks or Team Orion batteries
AWD - Needed to ease drift
Torquey motor - Atomic stock BB motor would be fine here
Tires - Hard slicks or the drift kit.
GPM - Dogbones and axles for less slop and the dogbones are known to break easy.
Bearings - Need the drivetrain to be smooth

Now, if you really want to go all the way, get some derlin gears which are smooth then stock and a CF driveshaft which is lighter which means more power. Probably forgot a thing or two, it's late and I'm tired.
if i buy the Atomic stock BB motor. should it be the AWD motor?

Thats not true, this statement is so false. To prove it I am going to plug my ebay lithium kit to the wall socket now and unplug it a week from now. How is that for overcharged? I leave it plugged in all the time. It IS a lithium charger and it IS designed like a cellphone charger to stop charging at a point.

So i decided that next thursday is going to be the day i place my order for the car, i cant wait to get it and mess around im getting anxious. Im sorry that i was putting multiple posts, new to the forum thing and i didnt realize that you could edit a post. and ActionB i trust you on that lithium charger being correct because to many people would complain and would be able to get that company in trouble if they were selling faulty equipment



Ive been looking online for the starter kit that i want to buy and i want to go with the 370z. Now on all the starter kits ive seen it says Xmods Evolution. and the 370z says Xmods Street. i was just wondering if somone could help me out with the difference? or if there is a difference in the upgrade parts you have to buy?

They're both the same. Pretty much the only difference is that the Evolution has a crystal (to change frequencies) and the body has a body kit. The parts are all the same (just different design for the cardboard) so Evo upgrades are interchangeable with Street upgrades.

Because your not racing competitively or with many other people I would say the crystal is unimportant. If you ever change your mind though, you can always solder a plug to change crystals in the future.
