    Great video! This is on the list for my new chassis, as with one track day, the gearbox is already making funny noises! Highly recommend the 2.5 gearbox swap if you already have a 2.0!
  • @noybieeyes
    How about the rrx conversion. Any inputs?

    Hey bro. Awesome chanel. I bought an rmx 2.0 whike back. Im new to rc drift and never understood why it doesnt come with reverse. Do i need to buy a new motor and esc or is there something i can do with the radio? Such a noob question i know but i want to get back into drifting. Also im thinking of building my 2nd ever drift car. What do you recommend coming out of a mst rmx 2.0.? Thanks brother

    What do you like better overall? RMX 2.0, Sakura D5, YD-2?
  • @Aidrock10
    This the same transmission in the 2.5?
  • @TheAusherGuy
    What's the part number or a link to this complete gearbox set up?
