HPI RS4 SS - Any necessary Upgrades

Hi all,

I just bought an HPI RS4 SS, I was wondering if there were any weak points on the car that I should think about upgrading while building?

Thanks,
Mike...

Put a better brake in it, the plastic one will melt and not last long.

Its the only issue Ive had on mine.

Thanks

What types of breaks are there? Who makes a good replacement for this?

Any part numbers?

Thanks,

Mike...

I just put a fiber one in mine today, #A844, have not run it yet, but sure seems to grab good on the bench!
