New Toy
#1
I just picked up a deal on a like new Losi XXX-NT adam drake 2. It comes with an O.S. .12TR motor that has only a couple tanks through it but I want to swap it out for a pull start motor just cause I wont be racing it rather playing with it. I have a 2.5R revo motor, anyone know if that will bolt up to it? Or is there a pullstart adapter backplate that I can put on the TR? Pics coming soon Smile

It DOES NOT bolt into it. If I remember Tommy (Squirell) went through hell trying to get one into his XXX-NT. Definitely a fun little truck though.

DO NOT TRY IT!!!!!!!! It is not a drop in. I had to dremel out the holes on the motor to move it back and then I would have had dremel the chassis to move the motor even FARTHER back!!! If you wanna straight up trade for a pullstart motor, I have a mach .15 that only has about a gallon on it. If I can get some of the other owners to speak up, I was about the 6 or 7th owner of the same mach .15 motor! The damn thing ran forever!! I prob put 2 gallons alone on it. I would say through the life of the motor it maybe had upwards of 7 gallons thru it. I would be willing to trade you for your o.s. if interested?

Also you will love the truck!! It's not that great for bashing on grass because the 2 wheel drive will make it kinda difficult. But parking lot bashing is a blast! they are quick and you can drift with them. lol.

.18. I'm sure if you wanted to do some modding you could put a BB in there!

I found a LRP pro.18z for about $130. Side exhaust, threaded shaft and rotary carb...looks promising. LRP = SH so it should be pretty good

The OS .18TZ with rear exhaust, rotary carb, should drop right in the Losi and be sick fast

you think that would be better than the LRP .18Z Pro? I found one for $99, I think the OS is alot more than that though.

The o.s. new is like 160-180. If your gonna sell it lmk a price.

Also gabe, losi's are setup for side exhaust. rear exhaust would work fine but would take a different header.

XXX-NT has rear exhaust header that comes with it, I am getting a side exhaust header for that LRP if I get it. I think the LRP looks like a nice motor and I know the Spec .28's are really nice runners. Hopefully the .18 is no different, its a 4 port too. Think it may get ordered tonight Smile

thats the new beast, hope it should rip that little truck up pretty good. I want to make a sand-rail out of it. Some paddle tires in the back and a pair of mohawks up front. Just waiting for some Michigan sand after that. :joy:
