There seems to be a very large selection of spurs and pinions with that pitch, and the switchover required no mods at all.
The M03 chassis has fixed mounts for the motor. It has 3 different sets of holes, for 16,18 and 20t pinion, but using 17,19,and 21t pinions yeilds a much nicer mesh. Tamiya use 48p metric pinions, and the 21t is largest that will fit. You must have a sliding adjustable motor mount on your evo, I have a dark impact that I swapped over to use a traxxas slipper (peg style) and 48p pinions and spurs.

You can get the same connector on tower hobbies from great planes, they have all kinds of deands connectors and adapters. I just made this one. Soldered the 3 deans together and then coated it in epoxy.
