Neon_Skylineboy, it's very easy, if you're planning on using your existing gears, just pop off the motor plate, and then pluck out the old motor. Pull the gear carefully from the old motor, and then put it on the new motor - depending on what type of BC-G you have, you may find that your Tx has a hole in that back, and you can push the motor into this gear-end first to perfectly set the position of the gear. If you don't have this, then just push it on most of the way but not all of the way, and check the mesh when you put it back in the car. Pop the plate back on, and you're all set. A warning about the 3.0s, they are notoriously flaky and have been know to die after only a few runs, or even ship dead. I would recommend a 2.6 personally, as they are more controllable and far more reliable.

Notorious is right. I bought two and neither of them work now. TERRIBLE! AWFUL! JUNK!!!!
But you get the picture. I've reinstalled the 2.6 on my Loctite Zexel and it runs much better.

Hehe! Well, stock, the Bullets are faster, but with a 3.0 up your sleeve - that's too funny!

Hehe, yes, then make a little NOS sticker for the extra cell, like Russ did on his Mini-Z turbo!
