XMOD quality
I picked up an xmod at the local rat shack, and I must say I am a bit dissappointed with the quality. everything is loose, one of the rear wheels is slightly lower than the other, causeing the one side to be "light" and it always unloads that wheel causeing it to spin one direction and turn poorly the other, I tried putting some grese in the diff to make a poor mans LSD, but that only worked a little bit. the steering servo is the roughest I have seen (does anyone know if it can be replaced with a standard one) I hope i can remedy these issues.

already did that with the first one I bought, luckly I didn't even leave the mall before I tried it. , just didn't work at all. I think I can fix some of the issues. besides I like a challenge. I also have a mini-x and once I finish it I will race them.

I think the only way to fix the problems you're describing is to go get a Mini-Z.

Then quit complaining about the quality of these. What you get for $50 is very good, and can be made much better with only a small amount of effort.

Some of this should be expected considering the size and price of these. I'm not saying that is a bad things because I'm enjoying my Skyline. If you don't like it then return it for another one or get your money back and spend it on something you think is worth your while... At least make an effort to make it work for you and enjoy it...

I agree with the other people. If you arent satisified then return it. My radioshack is great with returns.
