Whats the difference?
I'm looking at buying a pressie for my fiance'. I was wondering if the only major difference between the RS4 3evo and the RS4 3evo+ is the engine? The only 1 i can get hold of in my area is the RS4 3evo, and even thats in a short supply.
If any1 can tell me what if any of the other differences between the 2 cars are it would help alot.
Thanks

RE: Whats the difference?
You are right, the engine is the difference. The + gets the T3.0 which is a better motor then the T15FE. You are talking about the RTR version right? It gains a huge boost in power with the T3.0.
I hope this helps….

Take a look at this link. It has the technotes for the RS4 3 EVO+. You could order from TH if you dont like the other kit. I have had good luck with shipping too Iraq from them. When you search for the none plus version on TH they show it is discontinued...
Go with the RS4 3 EVO+ if you can have it shipped to you.
Good luck....

Personally id go with the 18ss+ kit dude, youll have alot more fun building it and its so easy. Plus later on you will so regret getting the RTR version.

So can you tell me that which is better? The 18ss+ with 2.2hp and the T3.0(evo+) 2.2hp. I am waiting to buy one of the new Spektrums when the are ever back in stock again soooo. I was thinking that with the 18ss+ and the evo's T3.0, being that there is only 30$ difference here in Japan. Would I be going the wrong direction by getting the Evo+? And I wanted to run it now. and I cant get 2 servos and a receiver for the 30$ difference.

RE: Whats the difference?
ok the new engine going into the evo+ is the T3.0, which is going to be over two HP and the 18SS+ is going to be the same engine they have in the 18ss now. BUT being a new engine they are not on the market yet so i dought you'll be able to get one anyways. aside from that just get the **OS .18 CVR** for like $100 bucks. And the engine will have more then enough power the get the job done so don't bugg so much on new engines that arnt on the market yet anyways. till they put those engines on the market you wont be able to get them outside of a RTR kit. also they will need to have spare parts on the market to. doesnt seem like they even ARE going to sell the engines by them selves
