It was a used kit and need to change the tires, the only new thing that came with it is the new shell. i am also thinking of buying a chinese made rc so that i can use some parts from it and install it to the kit that i got, do you know how much would it cost me in DM? i was checking on the net and it seems some parts are quite nice. Or it would be much better to buy the branded spare parts? i know this hobby would cost a lot, but im not in the position to spend right now. bounce

hi boom ..... welcome to dubdrift ....

i suggest use your kit first as it is ....... branded parts usually (not always) are better than the generic ones but as you stated ...... since your new to the hobby ..... drive the kit and upgrade along the way as you get to understand what your driving style would ask for ......

for ordering on-line ..... JJ Drfitshop usually has batch orders from the net every month for members here in our community .....

enjoy your stay

@ strawb, thanks for the advice. i am hoping to buy from JJ Driftshop but i am not of capable right now. i just came from DM and seen some HSP, basic one cost 650 and with the brushless motor cost 1 grand. it would be much better to buy a used branded kit from the other members. i also finished my kit and got a set of BBS rims for it, problem right now is how to post pictures here. sorry
