Thanks for the welcome!

Hey there guys, I have recently reignited the Nitro in me. I have took the plunge and brought a bundle off eBay of version bits and pieces for a considerable amount of money. Going through the check list before I receive them and I thought to my self.....mmmmm... i'm probably going to need some new lines, filters and some glow plugs. The lot I have brought has a bunch of mixed engines so no idea what plugs I will need for sure but upon look for some, the prices seem to have gone though the roof in my opinion. I am talking 10 years or so ago... In regards to plugs my old hobby shop closed down years ago ( I live in north wales, close to Chester) and not many shops that sell nitro stuff from what I can see. I have found ones from general shops for anywhere from £6-£15 a piece. I then stumbled across Ali express, Banggood etc, but what is the quality like. I'm not talking racing or high performance kinda stuff but stuff that functions for a reasonable price. I did done some research of the HSP brand that still seem to supply a lot of parts. The bay of e don't have much either. not even someone selling a bunch of old stock. I have a HPI EVO RUSH and a big Traxxis both Nitro of course. Trying to find bits for them.... well I need drive shafts for the rush which I can't find and have misplaced the originals years ago to measure them. It also needs a new main Spur gear. but can't find them either, other than a 3D printed one from the bay of e or pay for the file and print my self. I'm struggling to find any upgrade parts, or figure out what other parts are compatible. From what i understand a lot of people have now moved over to the electric stuff, but nitro is nitro and its not the same. Any help or suggestions would be great!
