ROBINSON RACING MAKES THE BEST PINIONS IN MY OPINION. GO TO WWW.TOWERHOBBIES.COM (http://WWW.TOWERHOBBIES.COM) TO GET THE PINION AND THE RADIO.

yo, umm, 25 is a little high, umm, lets jsut say your motor wou;d poof geared like that, go with an 18 or 19 tooth, and i like losi pinions, they run quiet, also the trinity hard ones are great, but the contact patch is a little small

RRP, nooo. I bought a set of their Aluminum pinions and after a week of running they were the noisiest pinions I hav had, I now have team losi pinions. Hey if you want go with RRP but your truck will be the loudest at the track in a few weeks.

You should definitely NOT get a 25 tooth pinion!! Associated reccomends a 20 tooth for a stock motor in a T3, so either get that or a 19.

I run a 29 tooth 48 pitch pinion with a P2K, no problems yet. I've found you can usually go higher than the manufacturer's suggestion.

On a T3?! With the stock spur?! You're gonna toast your motor big time.

Top End, you must mean a 19 tooth. 29 tooth is way too high, unless you have a 100 tooth spur or something!
