i've already broken it in.... i just want to install a 2 speed transmission... the instruction book basically tells you how to install the whole car.... and the car i bought was already built.... out of the box.. all i did was to put the tires together..... i would try it, but don't have the experience.. so i don't want to mess it up..... i know there are peeps in here.. who has installed 2 speed transmissions on their rc cars...??? nobody???

the transmission was like 60 buck plus 20 buck installation fee.. and i spent money on other things like 40 buck for exhaust and headers... some more gas for 20 buck and a 02 civic body for 20 buck... to make a "mini me"
