Overview

The Traxxas 4-Tec 2.0 Nissan 240SX Brushless brings an iconic Japanese sports coupé to the RC on-road segment. The officially licensed S13 Nissan 240SX body features classic details such as pop-up headlights, a large rear spoiler, moulded mirrors, a splitter, and realistic brake discs with red calipers. Thanks to the clipless body design, the car keeps its clean lines without visible body posts.

Compared to earlier 4-Tec models, this version focuses clearly on more power, easier use, and a more realistic appearance. The Velineon 3S brushless power system with V3300 motor and VX3 ESC delivers strong acceleration and a top speed of over 80 km/h on 3S LiPo, without requiring any gearing changes. The ESC is easy to set up using Traxxas EZ-Set and offers several drive profiles, including Sport, Race, and Training Mode.

Steering and control have also been improved. The 2057 steering servo with metal gears is stronger and more wear-resistant than a servo with plastic gears, while the integrated servo saver helps protect the servo from impacts. Traxxas Stability Management helps keep the car stable under acceleration, braking, and powerslides on lower-grip surfaces, without taking away the direct driving feel.

The low-CG 4-Tec 2.0 chassis positions the weight low in the car, contributing to sharp steering response and stable handling. The full-time AWD drivetrain distributes power efficiently to all four wheels, while the steel centre driveshaft, sealed differentials, and oil-filled Ultra Shocks provide a solid foundation. The adjustable battery hold-down makes it easy to fit different 2S and 3S LiPo batteries without loose clips or pins.
