I remember buying the 2.5 4-tec after weeks and weeks of saving! I still have the thing too, maybe I'll run it one of these weekends!

@pistonpoweredrc2092 Год назад

Freaking awesome sweet 4teck honestly I think people underestimate the 2.5 and 3.3 Traxxas engines. Yeah they’re not super high-performance engines but they are still great engines even better when you take care of them properly. They might not have the best power band, but they still get the job done great.

@Nerm78 Год назад

Great video. I kind of like that orange chassis. Can't wait to see some speed runs!

@hybrid32494 Год назад

thank bro!! I've glued the tires and we are ready to ROLL!!

@Syphic001 Год назад

Ayo ! This video is dope. Man, that nitro 4-tec has a better paint job then my daily driver plus the color is not too bad! Someone took their time on that paint job ...

@GeorgieAndrade-yf3kc 3 месяца назад

My dad got this in 2006 as his first rc and he passed it down to me and went to electric because I love nitro gang🎉 3:51

@talon4u2nv Год назад

Still need a nitro 4Tec myself. Only one I’m missing haha.

@hybrid32494 Год назад

I know what you mean bro, this may not be a real 3.3 model and it’s got an orange chassis, but it’s still a truly sickening 1/10 scale Nitro and you know we need lots more of those.

@chiefj90 Год назад

Do they still have parts for these?

@michealmallow6925 Год назад

You are correct about the original bodys being hard to find..well, actually you can find them but the asking price is more then what I gave for the entire car..they are going for Hundreds. Ill just stay with my tubbed out 57chevy Belair body..it looks sick on the 4tec chassis..

@gingerman6560 Год назад

Slow motion for me. Sickening video bud wish traxxas still made these. Is the primer bulb cap aftermarket? Thats a nice feature

@713Ace529 Год назад

Congrats on a n amazing vintage icon piece brother. It’s one of the 1st onroad cars I seen that I got me hooked. I too got it from a second hand. Wasn’t running due to a strip screw on one of the rear axle yokes making it difficult for the previous owner to diagnose but now it is running fine 👍

@mikeymike3240 Год назад

I actually really love that orange coloured chassis, looks like the Ford RS Focus colour scheme. 😊 Niiiiiiiiiiice video my dude.😊😊

@hybrid32494 Год назад

what s up my fellow NItroGang brother!! I see your point on the Ford RS color scheme, kinda of makes sense now, lol... More on this thing soon, I have glued the tires now, haha!!

@rcnitro001 Год назад

I love my 4tecs. If you want more speed change out the rear wheel pulley to the newer rear pulley for that 70+ mph. You will also need to change out the rear belt.

@andyb9994 Год назад

Super video👍👍so cool I hope to find a Nitro 4 Tec, just picked up a T-Maxx the other day, I know its not a 4 Tec but still cool...your 4 Tec is awesome!!! Great video💯

@Nitrohead123 Год назад

Another awesome video, keep up the great work

@dieselshenanigans2458 Год назад

Hell ya the exact video I’ve been waiting for!!

@zachattack2016 Год назад

Put the shock preload spacers on it to reduce chassis scrapes!

@hybrid32494 Год назад

hey bro! Yes, you're totally right with this good advice! I've since added some extra pre-load to the back, it's much better now.

@StoneFPV- Год назад

Great video hybrid!

@AmericanDefender Год назад

I just got a really nice Cen Genesis 4.6.

@mraneantisseur7554 Год назад

@xaviersrcadventures2955 Год назад

Great little test! that wheel wanted to move! it!

@J05hKr0W Год назад

Use to have one. Man I wish I still had it lol

@MXROutlaw Год назад

same.... same..

@truerc Год назад

Sickening Traxxas👍Might want to get a chassis protector or make one from a sheet of vinyl to reduce scratches

@hybrid32494 Год назад

What’s up man, thanks for checking out the Sickening Nitro video. A chassis protector sticker is not a bad idea, I was thinking something like that also, would be a shame to scratch up the awesome orange color.

@speedgears1236 Год назад

Nice video. Wish mine would have gone through yesterday but the guy ghosted me. Atleast I know more from your video. But I might just buy a Jato.

@rcnitroflux2361 Год назад

Great vid bro I just brought one of ebay bro your video very informative bro

@Albertotron Год назад

Ngl the orange painted chassis is pretty sick

@ronharrigan3037 10 месяцев назад

I have an original 4 Tec also have not ran it in 15 plus years , it was not abused drive it maybe 5 times. Do you think it will still crank up after all these years?

@hybrid32494 10 месяцев назад

hey dude! Glad to hear you're trying to burn some nitro! Thats what this channel is all about. I would say 100% chance the engine is seized due to long term storage (including the carb). I have many vids on this channel on how to free the engine up, you just need heat and some oil. not a bad idea to remove the head and inspect it and oil it up too. The heat (from a heat gun) will help the engine spin over. Also wash your fuel system with water and soap.

@aperarevisions6914 Год назад

The video I’ve been waiting on man 🔥🔥 finally I have two of these in my personal collection

@andyb9994 Год назад

Those are sweet cars your lucky to have two, I'm gonna try to find one, may take a while but will be worth the hunt...

@michaelgraham2943 Год назад

Another awesome nitro!! I'm not a car guy but that may change soon

@rcnitroflux2361 10 месяцев назад

@smellyjoe8872 Год назад

I gotta get one

@SnarkyRC Год назад

Nice. I had a nitro 4tec years ago. I converted it to brushless.

@theconservativeconvict6353 Год назад

I dig the orange chassis 🤘🏻🤘🏻😎

@Tegridy_Rc Год назад

What’s crazy is the rustler was just slightly faster with a smaller engine and single speed

@michaelinzitari Год назад

Anne 2WD more efficient and bigger wheels act like tall gearing

@jayp9299 Год назад

I’m still looking for a 4 tec

@Tegridy_Rc Год назад

You can get a chassis protector for it

@dangerranger3297 Год назад

make the nitro 4tec great again

@hybrid32494 Год назад

Totally yes!! Agree. Also let’s try to build up so much Nitro 4tecc sickening video Content that Traxxas is forced to re-release it once again.

@dangerranger3297 Год назад

@hybrid32494 it's my favorite nitro rc that I have. They definitely need to re release it

@JAWZphotography Год назад

So jjst wanted to ad that the older .15 and 2.5 models have closer gear ratio and smaller pulleys cars Will only see 56-59mph usually due to maxing gears before maxing 3.3 out However on a track the older chassis is quicker Wanna go faster change second spur gear and front two pulleys out But the 2.5 is the better chassis over the 3.3 imo because short gearing makes it closer to a tc3 or rs4 2 Also rich is good on tuning but I woukd lean it a little cause I’m sure your running 20 percent bones at 12 percent oil or another random fuel with 16 percent either way that’s a lot of oil more nitro more cooling more oil more heat dirt bikes are 60-1 so a nitro with that ratio is like 10-1 a lot of oil just my two cents cause I can run custom 30/6 or 20/8 leaner than 30/12 or 20/16 and only rebuild race engines every 2-3 gallons instead of every 1-2 Rtr engines also like fuel not oil so lean it 1/4 turn on high speed and 1/8 on low trust me that engine will love you forever since cooling head temp is always lower than block near the bearings you don’t want to see 260 on the head and realize your block is at 280 and stretched risking internal failure

@JAWZphotography 10 месяцев назад

@@hybrid32494 hey no worries watch a lot of your stuff but usually when live I’m sleeping or working so I miss out a lot of the times…anyway I know it was car of the year and featured in the October 1998 or 1999 edition I think 98, however reason I ask is that one had a custom done body for the mag and yours shows it’s true glory of having a original body I’m on my 9th restoration/upgrade project 4tec but this one is the only .15 version I have so figure be cool to display both issues of the mag with the car once I’m done and don’t get me started in the nitro tc3 lol besides serpent onroad cars the tc3 always is welcome in my home 5 electric versions including two full team kits with period correct electronics on display and 16 nitro versions including 1 side exhaust FT with picco .12 and three rear exhaust FT all fitted with nivarossi .12 only because these are the ones I use to race before nitro sedan died in my area now it’s made it’s way back sorta but I’m not dropping $900 plus on a kit and another $500 plus on a engine just to come in last these guys are fast now Anyway I’m ranting now appreciate the response my guy keep doing what you do
