Finally got over to my brothers office to pick up the car.. Here are some pics...after seeing them in the light of the camera i see i need to clean her up.

As far as the mods it has robinson racing gears that replace the stock plastic ones...a RR one way diff...GPM aluminium knuckles , upgraded motor heat sink.

I just took the motor out it was a 15t touring motor...i'll be putting it back in and possibly going brushless in the future but the brushed motor in this car is quick so its a nice setup as is.

Gotta get it cleaned up and make a gallery thread on it with some nice pics

Awesome! Thx for sharing. I have a Castle sidewinder coming along with a brushless 4600 for both cars. Can't wait to try both.

Looks like some Robinson Racing diff gears and belt pulleys on it. I have a Roadrunner Xpress from the same era, similar chassis layout and put a sidewinder with a 5700k brushless in it. Got the saddle pack lipo set up and the handling is just great, balanced and fast. I never had an electric RS4, but have a pair of Nitro Racers and still have blast with those too. Finding various parts, I don't think, has been too hard.
