Good tt-01 hop-ups

i just got a tt-01 kit, and im wondering what i should get for best performance? im thinkin speed gems 15t motor, good ESC, and im about to get dynamite bearings. besides that, what should i get for best performance?

Bearings for sure, oil shocks (plastic would be fine), and considering the 15T motor, the aluminum driveshaft would also be a good choice.

Defo need bearings, however i have heard people being able to hit 40mph with a 12x2 motor but you will need to go down some teeth on your pinion. heatsink would then also be useful. I broke one of my rear shocks going off a curb so some ali ones would be useful

Good idea ZeroMax, I forgot about the heatsink. The motor mount on the TT-01 is plastic, so the heatsink and the alloy motor mount would also be nice to have.

The Bearings, heatsink, and drive shaft are the must haves. The plastic motor mount actually fits better than the metal one. The plastic mount with the TT-01 heatsink will keep the motor steady and retain consistent gear mesh.

Then if you want it to handle, the oil shocks, adjustable arms, adjustable tie rods.

That stuff comes to $75+ which is why I never recommend a TT-01 to anyone. You can get a TA05 for the price of a TT-01 and minor upgrades and the TA05 has everything you need and then some. Even a Tb02 would be a better choice in my opinion. but, with that said, I've had 2 TT-01's and they are fun. Typical Tamiya upgrade hawg though......

ok, ill get the shaft, shocks, and im finishing up the bearings, heat sink.

i guess it was an impulse buy for me, but it was $90 at the store, and I want something electric to drift in my basement.
