OK i have one stock emaxx and a couple of hopups already collected for it here is what i have got in the picture. (note diffs are stock as well as knuckles and shock posts)

30.) Associated black grease $7
31.) Associated 15k diff oil $4
32.) Associated 10k diff oil $4


This is a lot of stuff and comes to be alot of money if i had to guess it would be over 2 grand. Then i thought i could solve this problem buy using my money a buying the erevo converson from RC monster. it cost a lot less than than the maxx and i can use some parts that i already have like quark 125b, the punisher rods for the steering and rear knuckles, the 17mm hex hubs, and the screw kit. I can also use the other spare parts like the Flextek arms, FLM shock towers, wing and mount, and the integy shocks on my stock emaxx i have laying around. I also have some extra rims and tires sitting around with all this together all i will need to complete the revo is a motor (like a 7XL 90 bucks) body, radio, and batteries. and this all together will be much less than the emaxx project. Out of this i will achieve less price, better handling, a for sure running car, better reliability, excellent basher right out of the box with minimal upgrades(rpm arms and such), 2 running cars stock maxx with Flextek arms, integy shocks, wing, and shock towers and Brushless erevo all at about 1 third of the price of the all decked out revo, and this extra cash will allow me to spend more cash on other Brushless projects like Brushless 1/8 truggys and or buggys. What do you guys think. (By the way i have just enough money for the revo so if i did spend that on the max instead i would not even be able to complete a roller)
