Help with new motor/gearing

I can't find a microsizer up grade motor any place near, so I've decided I'm going to get a ZZ motor for my car. Which motor and gear will make my faster than it is stock (stock Microsizer motor)?

Thanks

If you want to be sure that you will get a fast motor, buy the Fast and the Furious Street Tuner that has the NOS motor.

That is the fastest motor available for the ZZ.

But, still you can get almost any motor for the Bits by ordering them from a site.

The red turbo ZZ motor with the red ZZ gears is pretty quick. Probably faster than the MicroSizer 2.6.

From what I have seen and tested, it is faster than the 2.6 Bit. The Regular Turbo motor that comes with the standard $7.99 tune up kit is very close to the 2.6 motor. The FaF kit is only good for the NOS motor....

Barry you don't understand....my sizer came with a 1.000 motor
All the new Sizers do. The old ones come with the 2.6 It was so slow. No doughnuts, no power slides.

With the turbo motor i have no prob doing doughnuts (sometimes to many) I guess I'm not flipping cus I have slicks on there??

I can't wait to get the nos motor or the 3.8 for the Sizer!


fordpower.net I'll have to check that out. I have an 02 GT. My other toy

Ummm all 2 of my Microsizers came with the stock 2.2's.

they dont even make 1.0 for the Microsizers, the slowest MS sells is 1.6.

Binary,

Yes they do sell a 1.0 for the microsizers. My local hobby shop has one, but it would be way too slow. Go with the 3.8, awesome power.

Really? Microsizers are now packaged with 1.0's? That sucks. That was one of the best things about the release of Microsizers. I'll stick with my Bit Char-G.

As for motors. Goto Walmart, Kmart, Toys R Us, or Target and pickup a KIT Racing set by Hot Wheels. They come with either a 2.2 or 2.6 MicroB motor that will fit your Microsizer. Price is between $10-$14 (Walmart being the cheapest)

Slalom, Energi: 2.2
MPH/KPH, RPM: 2.6

How fast are these hotwheels motors? And how are they at adapting to sizers or zips?

I think you misread - they still come w/ 2.2s, not 1.0s. What Overlord said was that it is possible to buy a 1.0 if you want a slower car. binaryterror, MS do not make a 1.6, only 1.0, 2.2, and 2.6.
