Electric install.
8.5 brushless motor
Lipo battery.
El cheapo 'blue' ESC £14 off eBay.
KO FET servo I had lying around and a 2.4 GHZ receiver.

I have given it a couple of runs and it handles great, on the first run I had an issue with the rear diff screw breaking but no problems after that. The slipper seems to be doing a good job of not letting the motor destroy the drivetrain and the ESC hasn't given out its magic smoke, not yet at least.

I know, this buggy was not embraced by many when released (or in the collector market now) but my wife bought this for me when it was new for local club racing. I have raced it on and off through out the years and always seem to return to it, lol. I...

You could always convert to mx4 wheels. Theres some on ebay now, but not much for hubs. I think 1 set. they pop up every now and then though. I ran my mr4 bc for a little while, very fast and good handling for a street runner/basher. Sucks up little...

Hi guys. I have a Yokomo MR4 BC that I have run a few times outdoors at a local club. I found out that there was a long wheelbase conversion available, as the car is based on a TC chassis its a bit short. I could not locate the full kit, but managed...

I have the car that has the enclosed belts and no top deck as such, so I'm lucky on that front! I will post a pic when I get a minute.

Anybody have experience with, information regarding the somewhat rare and forgotten yokomo mr4 buggy?

Last post

The most important thing to check for is the two small screws that go in the sides of the front shock tower. You may think they are unnecessary, but they are critical to keeping the front bulkhead from breaking. Back in a day I bought a carbon fiber...

This was sitting on my shelf as a 4WD buggy when I got offered a spot in the truck class for a big race. Not sure if an opening would present itself still for 2WD or 4WD I decided to take the opportunity and started a rebuild to make this into a...

I don't have many yellow ones; so they kind of stick out from the pile of spacers.
That makes it easy to pick out 2 identical ones when in a hurry ;)

Hi guys

I have at home a mr4 tc (the basic one with plastic parts) I started to build 2 years ago, but since I am no big fan of touring cars I was thinking that this car has many parts in common with the off road version, so why not convert it. I...

Last post

in stock form it is a bit wild in the rear. mount some new big bore V2's, relocate the rear upper shock location to give you more droop, and you got a better handling buggy. the only thing i hate about it is the belt skipping. i'm still looking for...

I'm after abit of info on the Mr4 rally , does anyone know the difference between rally and mr4 tc ? I guess the main diff would be shocks and shock towers?

Any other info would be great
