I disagree with this..I have the GPM batt heat sinks, and I have found a small screwdriver gets them off without damage to either the chassis or H/Ss, and means you don't trash your fingernails....just my opinion;)

I have seen a few Topcad parts, and have decided most of their parts suck...even though GPM is a LITTLE more expensive, and ALLEDGEDLY has a QC problem, I have had ZERO problems with GPM parts, and have found them to be of better design than Topcad.:)

and I must say...this doesn't really make too much sense relative to battery heatsinks:confused: :confused:

thanks for the heads up on the battey heat sinks...and I agree...topcat is a pain in the ass, I bought the berings from them and they didnt fit in my motor mount. Has anyone had difficulties with the ball diff? I had one bend on me. the gear began to wobble. I got a new one that's alright, but my friend also had the same wobble problem. maybe were doin something wrong?

naw, topcrap ball diff's are actually as worse as the stock gear diff in my opinion. So if you want to get a ball diff go w/ GPM or Kyosho, or even MZR.com's.

How do them nsx's drive? R they very sturdy to more than stock hits?

the side view mirrors crack right off, but the body itself is sturdy, and the body is easy to take on and off (its quite large). s definitely worth getting
