I do!Do you happen to have any 2 speed rs4 2 parts?
I just so happen to be interested how much for a complete one, don’t care on gearing, but my dad had his setup as 37/44 13/20(I believe the faster) but I will take whatever you got. I think I have enough parts to just need a clutch and clutch bell(the transmission ones not the engine ones) but a complete one would also rockI do!
Alright let me know what you findI have to check to see what I have
Did you happen to get a chance to look? Also you wouldn’t happen to have a 2 speed pilot shaft right? The longer one for the 2 speed, HPI A806I have to check to see what I have
Not yet, and yes I have a brand new pilot shaftDid you happen to get a chance to look? Also you wouldn’t happen to have a 2 speed pilot shaft right? The longer one for the 2 speed, HPI A806
Willing to sell it? I did some digging and found I just need a pilot shaft and the clutch that goes inside the 2 speedNot yet, and yes I have a brand new pilot shaft
I can sell it with the gearboxWilling to sell it? I did some digging and found I just need a pilot shaft and the clutch that goes inside the 2 speed

Very cool! I wish you the best of luck. I have been into RC cars,planes, helicopters drones,boats ect my whole life as far back as I can remember and have an absolutely massive collection these days... However... The old school nitro RS4 v2 with the HPI .12 was the very first RC car I ever actually built myself from a kit. Thanks for posting. Brings back many wonderful memories. I look forward to seeing updates on your progress....Hello all, so I have in my possession a very meaningful truck(I’m a very nostalgic person). It is an rs4 2 that originally my dad had back in 2000 ish, he had it and used it as his main on road(he did mostly off road nitro so this was one of his only nitro on roads) around 2010 when I was somewhat young he got some rs4 3s, both built to the hill, one electric one nitro. So he retired it, and a few years later, he converted it to electric for me to use, now years later (around 2020) I converted I back to nitro and although it was always running, it always felt insuperor. Not as good as the 3’s. Now like I said, this car means a lot to me, which is why I need help with 2 decisions, 1: buy a rs4 3 and leave this guy sitting on the shelf(because I really only need one nitro on road as I mostly do off road). Or 2: build this guy the best I can and have fun.
Now, I’d like to go with the ladder, however, I need your guys’ help. I don’t have a ton of experience with these belt drive ones, but the goal is to make this car as close to a rs4 3 as possible, when it comes to driveabilty at least. I would to do a 2 speed, so Andy help with that and especially clutch things, pulleys, belts, a lot of driveline stuff I want to make bulletproofSo help me out, if any of you had these trucks back then or have them now, advise me as to make this the best rs4 2 possible! You can of course tell me to just get a rs4 3, but I really do want to make this car work. It has a lot of value to me, also the reason I would not sell it ever.
thank you guys! Here are some pictures of it, the ones with the black body are from 2002, the orange body is current(the engine is not mounted, I can’t figure out a clutch situation
