| Post subject: | modify at your own risk.picco p 0 |
Go to ofna.com and check out the pics of the engine.It has the threaded crankshaft that has a clutchnut/shaft that uses the eclip on the end like the Toki.I realize modifying the crank is not a good idea but I shaved 1mm off the crankshaft and the end of the shaft clears by .5mm at the rear trailing arm.So far with the engine breakin it runs smooth.It started up no problem.Pay attention to the exhast manifold you will need to modify it so it seats flat on the engines exhaust port.I will post pics soon. |

Yea nite and day over the Toki powerwise.I run 30% nitro and it purs like a kitten.No leakage either I am lovin it.With the exceptional quality of the Xray NT18T plus this new engine this is hands down the best micro nitro vehicle available, everything else in this class including the 1/16 vehicles flooding the market are JUNK! Thanks Xray. |

So I took out the little truck today and took some high speed runs on pavement and its fast with the picco.It pulls to the right a bit but it flys.It has no problem in the short grass and the medium grass in my yard and sounds like a very angry huge Bumble Bee as you see the grass parted like the red Sea as it comes  mowing by.
Have Fun Im lovin it. |

With some own creation and handy work you can fit anything. Currently my M18 conversion to a NT18 is almost finished. I am using an OSmax 10-FP (1.7cc) engine 
This engine is almost the size of a 2.1cc racing engine so a JP FX12 could be a next step |

My impression is overkill on engine. Alright with the suspension redo. Helotes & stormer really good places to order parts. Jeff @ Helotes a person has good communication with his client. And its nice to know he's in the state which RCAmerica is in. He can get you the parts you need. Stormer has a Stocking system, tell you the quantity of parts in stock. Kind of impressed with his turn around time. I ordered part on tuesday, they arrived saturday postal delivery Tower I think got thier prices turned around. B/N non-pull & pull start. I got mine at a LHS for $129 w/6.95 shipping. Ordered it thursday, received it the next day 22 hrs later. Was going to wait for the toki to retire, But after installing a P-Zero in a friend car!! I'm hooked. Picco is a screamer. Revs approximately 6-8000 rpms more. Maybe for the weekend, been too busy lately. |

Rock on!  I just hope the drivetrain can handle the extra power but we will see.I have mine changed over to the MT shock system and there is less rear squat under full throttle on pavement and it adds a little more ride height.I will be taking some video soon

Yes you can, install it in NT18. I just finished installing one. Things you have to do. Picco non-pull engine, no room for the pull-start. You have to grind down the exhaust manfold to accommodate the header or grind down the last two fins on the engine. May have to grind down the crankshaft a touch, The shaft is longer then the clutch shoes pegs. Finally you have to work to get the endplay correct, it comes with shims but still have to work on it.. In other word do a dry fit of the clutch bell assembly before you finalize the assembly. |
