Keep running the trx 2.5 or 3.3. when it goes, use their engine replacement plan. That car is too small for any more motor and the drivetrain is too weak. You will end up having more problems than it is worth if you go to a more powerful motor. (Also more expensive and probably harder to tune.)

Hahaha.... whoops. Anywho.... still a 4-tec. You could run brushless in it, but I would go with a stock motor or a mild mod. Something cheap by reedy or speed gems.

Motors will have nothing to do with the diff. Motors will make a difference as to what pinion you should be running though. For that you really need to know what turn the motor is. Do you have a picture of it??
