Hi, I’m looking for some info on my motor. It has the same coloring/sticker (bright pink) as the Trinity nuclear assault, but it has a plastic end bell - all the info I can find via Google shows an aluminum end bell for the nuclear assault. I saw a mention that newer versions were plastic, but look...

Hope this helps

Sure were, earlier motor cans were also same makes were in the Kyosho line and for a small amount of time Kyosho made some Trinity motor cans.

I had to do a double take on the Bud's 7315 pic. The signature brown carpet is always a giveaway. :lol: Not sure if carpet has anything to do with it. Was a reference pic found online of a nip. It's my motor. This Bud's for you. :) Buds_7315_mod-dyno-charger.JPG :lol: Aaa got ya. Found it on worth ...

Does anyone happen to know if any of the Revtech 27T motors had a silver can with the "REVTECH" label clear and hunter green? Not a green can. I swear my REVTECH stock motor was silver and hunter green, but I can't find any info on label colors for REVTECH. I assume each color was unique ...

4113 27x1 Esprit Stock was black
4116 27x1 Super Stock was the hunter green decal I believe

Wimpy pimarily used Air Supply teardowns. Stock were typically silver cans. If you want something different then TRD offers a whimsical selection of motors. TRD_.jpg these my friend are not any Air Supply tear downs by TRD I would know. As for the motor in question 👆🏻 Its made by Gonzo and is a tri...

What exactly is a "tear down"? I can tell from the context that it basically means the same motor, but do they buy them plain and just slap their label on them, or is there more to it? Teardown motors were done from motor companies for years. Trinity used Kyosho for a bit over a year then...

So back to the original question, does anyone know if Gonzo/Wimpy labeled made any green motors, or is it a mislabeled Green Machine 2? Oddly enough, I ran across a GM2 digging thru some motors yesterday. It would clean up pretty nice if the previous owner had put their capacitors on the other side...

Page 5 on this post I have model numbers with some photos to narrow down the turns on the Revtech.

I got you

Is there a stock motor with a hot pink end bell? Vintage or modern. There are quite a few Trinity was a large amount of the hot pink made a few stock threw out the years other manufacturers use them in there own tear down builds. 1996 Trinity Monster Horsepower Jr. # 1000 1994 Trinity Monster Stock...

Thanks again for all the input everyone. Interesting stuff. Your all's stuff is a lot better than mine! :lol: I have a Slot Machine 2 but I don't want to bastardize it to suit my needs. The Street Spec isn't stock of course but should suit my needs nicely. It'll clean up pretty nicely. The label is...

Spotted this on ebay and thought it is neat. Igarshi motor being sold by Yokomo for their Miniracer RC-12. Would've been really cool if it had a Yokomo label on it. The RC-12, RC-12Jr & RC-12Jr USA Models had a 280 Mabuchi Motor Had one or the other. None had a decal. 380 Mabuchi Motor 380 Reed...
