Hey I got Tons of stripped screws on my Nitro 4-tec and its almost impossible to get the engine off.. How can i take all these screws off and where can i get a new chassis.. or if theres a website that has hop-ups for the nitro 4-tec please let me know...

Plus Ive been eyein the new 2.5 engine i was wonderin if i could just buy 1 of those instead of buyin a whole new 4-tec?

Why would you need to get a whole new car? For those stripped screws. You just get a dremel and put a high-speed cutter on the dremel. Then dremel into the screw so you can take it out with a flathead screwdriver. Why would you need a new chassis? Also, im not sure when the 2.5 is going to be out by itself. You just need to get the engine and conversion kit for the n4-tec if you want the 2.5. You dont have to buy another car just for all these little things.

I meant only buy a new car for the 2.5 engine.. and I need a new chassis cuz mine is worn n torn but thanks

Im sure your chassis is fine. Alot of us practically have so many scratches and stuff that there isn't any blue left.hehe. You dont need to buy a new 4-tec just to have the 2.5 engine. Besides, there isn't anything new about the 4-tec, just the engine. You can buy the 2.5 engine seperately and then buy the conversion kit and you'll have a 2.5 in your 4-tec. Just do the thing with the dremel and your car will be fine.

I think they changed the tires on the 4-TEC because look at the chassic pic under the Nitro 4-TEC section, they are not the same ones. Of course that might be a concept or something...

The only reason you would need to replace your chassis is if it is severely bent, like bent beyond repair. If the chassis is bent just a little bit, it can be put in a vice, and maybe a little hammered a little to straighten it out.
