and ive currently got a standard body and was wondering if others could fit.

The eb4 is an amazing car.My friend has 1 and it started first time with no problems what so offer. Its a really good car generally i really like it.

My friends upgrades are:

servo's

dish wheels

monster energy wing and body shell

sway bars

fuel filter.

He hasn't done too many upgrades as it's fairly new only like a couple months old.

Thanks

cheers lads,yeah its a good car when running.

them parts are pretty trick but I always get stung on importing stuff so I doubt ill get em',maybe just paint mine :)

monster energy stickers arn't at the top of my list :rofl: But do wanna get it looking schweet!

also some how my pullstart always wants to snap :blush: is it worth the leccy start/drill conversion? (dont relly no much about this).

mainly hammer over the fields and local waste ground,but looking for some people to meet.(bedfordshire area,I usually go over to a disused ski slope in rushden - youtube Skew bridge.)

im also into mx and most mechanical stuff :D

Hi mate and welcome, i have the S1 and S2. The engines are a nightmare to tune in this weather :o , but dont worry about that lol.

Just adjust the idle a 1/4 a turn and see is thats better, also i would change your glowplug for an OS8, you can pick these up at any website.

As for the parts i used eBay the most, but as Neil (DT-10) pointed out that shop is good, he was the last owner of my old EB4 lol.

Hope this helps.

Best replacement for the pullstart would be to get some ergal engine mounts for it and buy a starterbox... No more blistered fingers ;)

As for mine so far;

Hpi trophy fuel tank (took some drilling)

Shock socks (keep grit out of the shocks on loose dirt/ gravel).

Cleaned out diffs and replaced grease with diff oil.

Reoiled shocks (50wt/45)

Stainless steel screwset

Not alot really but I would replace fuel tank ASAP as its a case of when it will break not if on the s2
