Atomic mods has a nice choice of great parts for your car! I'd recommend atomicmods.com to anybody who loves mini RC. My honda civic was fast before I got lithiums and a new motor, but after I installed my new Lithium pro 2S pack and atomic AD motor, my civic now goes so fast its going to take a while to get used to! I plan on adding even more aluminum parts to my car! AtomicMods strikes again!

I got a new Xmods Bumblebee and today it is the fastest Xmod I own. When I was first introduced to Atomicmods.com in 2005 they had a motor that they were testing in their shop that was called the Blaster HC Prototype. I called them up and they told me I had to pretty much sign a waiver stating that the motor got really hot and it is my fault if it dies or catches fire.
The Mustang I am having trouble with the steering on it but it is a great little car as well.

Uhhh... Well I have a some what good story. What happened was bad, but its fun to tell. I bought my first XMOD like forever ago, then I tore it apart (like a dumba$$) then I got another from a friend. Next my dad bought me one and then my nana bought me one. I then got the lithium pack, and one of the wires cought the ground, and my XMOD blew up. I had turned it off and it started smoking. There were a few more that I had that blew up from putting a tad bit too much sloder, or wire problems, but the ones i have now are in good shape. So I hope I don't mess them up.
Another thing that I want to say is that AtomicMods is the greatest! I love my XMOD, and it is really fun to play with, and it gives me something to do. AtomicMods has made it even better because now I have a faster car! I can't wait for the lithium and chassis.
Thanks for all the help. I know I have called a billion times about stuff and AtomicMods has ALWAYS been as fast as possible. It really is unimaginable how fast your things get delivered, and if you are having any problems with anything that has to deal with AtomicMods, they will help. For example, I ordered something on Sunday, it got paid for on Monday but not shipped. So I called Thursday night after hours and left a message asking them if there was a problem. They wrote me back on my e-mail, that I had given to them over the phone, the next day and told me that it had to be put together and shipped.
AtomicMods has always been nice, fast, and very helpful. THANKS AGAIN ATOMICMODS!!! Keep up the good work!

XMOD Mini NASCAR Conversion Kit
Finally! I was so excited when I saw the XMOD Mini NASCAR Conversion Kit – this product is truly excellent, and its introduction brings XMODs out of toy status and into hobby status. The body is lighter and looks great. And, considering I was able to install it in under 5 minutes – more time to customize - makes the conversion kit well worth the price. I'm 100% happy with your conversion kit - it represents to me, what this hobby is all about. I'd recommend it to anyone serious about their Minis.

I think you get the idea......
We bought the Giro-Z lap counting system a couple of weeks ago. We choose the kit option without the bridge and saved 50 bucks. We built a bridge out of 3/4" PVC and cable tied a piece of 1/4" lexan across the top to mount the I/R sensors on. Total cost was around $10. (I've included a couple of pictures to help other who might like to do the same)
We had our first race on Friday using the system and we had a blast. This system works great and didn’t miss a lap.
We race both Mini-Z’s and XODS and it is a little more difficult to mount the transponders on XMODS, but it was a great learning experience for my students.
The coolest thing about setting up the sensors is using the camera on our cell phones to see the IR light. We do a lot of robotic projects that involve IR transmitters and receivers so the Giro Z system has provided us with another great learning tool.
Thanks again AtomicMods for providing us with another great product.

Mini-Z AtomicBuilt 2007 Team Edition MR-02 Modified
I am a pro driver for the
Lowes American Lemans Racing Team, and race Mini-Zs not only to have fun, but also to hone my hand to eye coordination, so racing cars is my hobby, and my profession. I know more and more professional drivers who are turning to Mini-Z racing to improve their performance, and to have some fun.
In Mexico City, Mini-Z racing is very competitive, and I felt like I needed an edge. I had heard that the AtomicMods Racing Team was the best in the world, and so I called them for some advice and ended up buying a Mini-Z AtomicBuilt 2007 Team Edition MR-02 Modified without the FETs so I could run it in the stock class. They invited me to join their AtomicMods.com Racing Club – Houston which meets once a week so I decided to pick up the AtomicBuilt in person and join them for some racing. Since our Lowes Racing Team was doing some testing in Atlanta and I had a few free days I hopped on a plane and headed to Houston.
From the moment I arrived, Rob and the guys treated me like a long time friend. They gave me a tour of their facilities which was neat, well organized and very impressive. The track is really very large, very clean, with every amenity you could ever want at a track; it’s definitely the best Mini-Z track I have ever seen. Rob’s pit setup is also amazing; it’s almost nicer than what we have for our real cars at the Lowes Racing Team. Frank & Cristian also took the time to teach me how to improve my driving, and a lot more about how to properly set up a Mini-Z.
I had a fantastic time, and not only got an amazing car, but came away with some new friends and a whole lot of new racing knowledge. If you want to learn from the best, you are in the right place. AtomicMods.com is the Formula 1 of the Mini-Z world!
Thanks Rob, Frank & Cristian, racing with your Team has been the coolest R/C experience I have ever had, and I look forward to hanging out with you guys again.

Dear Atomicmods,
After several months of hard labor, collecting parts and modifying I have finally finished my VDS pan body. It is on a Generation 1 Xmods with Atomic T2 motor, Li-ion Pro Kit, 4x2 4562 FETs, T-turns resistors, Atomic super flex wire, Deans Micro plugs, all wheel drive, all billet aluminum parts, ceramic bearings, wheel shims, perfect drive shaft, suspension upgrade, wide billet rims front/ back, super sticky tires (glued with Griplock glue), Atomic aluminum locking wheel nuts, switchblade chasis and Atomic spring loaded antenna. I used a 1967 Chevy Camaro front clip and shaved the front, 2-part epoxy to attach the rear clip and a little trimming in the wheel wells to make it fit just right. It wasn't easy to get the VDS on a Generation 1 but it was worth the wait and thanks to you guys my ride is complete, check out the attachment. Even with the super grip tires this car will roast them. I just had to email you a pic and say thanks for all your help with this project, AtomicMods.com rocks!

My Firebird is truly on fire, thanks to the guys at AtomicMods.com. The V2.2 board was alot eaiser to install than stacking FETs. Paired with the suggested T2 motor and lithium battery it is insanley fast. The back diff is locked and it still gets lights up the tires with the remote set to low throttle trim. AWD is a must with this set up. The paint job was first. I didn't want a purple firebird. I had to sand down the shiny finish on the body for the paint to stick properly.Taped up the windows, exacto-knifed the excess tape. 2 coats blue, 2 coats clear and this is what I got. I shudder to think what speed could be achieved with long gears and polished concrete. There is an outdoor roller hockey rink not far from my house and I can't wait to get there. Thanks guys! There used to be a question between all my xmod buddies. Who was the fastest? I don't think I need to tell you the answer...but I will - its me.

I ordered the Atomic Superstock Motor, Shielded bearing kit, GPM motor heatsinks, and a delightful CF shaft to revive my 4 year old Skyline which I got right after Xmods originally came Ou t. POW! These upgrades pack a major punch! I installed them and promptly headed to my Church’s gym for some speed passes. I was blown away by how well everything worked.
Then came my Mini-LST. Hoo-boy, I’ve had some interesting experiences with this monster. I’ve cart-wheeled it down stairs, front flipped off playground equipment, and after all this abuse, a fried servo is about the only problem I've had. It was fast and easy to get a new one from AtomicMods. It’s nice knowing I have a reliable source for Mini-LST parts, your system is faster and less expensive than my local hobby shop!

I thought the aluminum version was pretty sweet and couldn't get any better, well the Titanium chassis proved me wrong.
Right out of the package, you can feel the awesome strength of the Titanium. Additionally since there is no paint on it you can feel the texture of the metal which is nice and smooth, with no unsightly bumps or anything. This chassis is definitely precision cut. Not to mention the color looks pretty nice against Lithium-Ions.
This chassis was the perfect piece to add to my project g35, way to go AM on another killer product!

I am buying an AtomicBuilt this Christmas
At first about 2 years ago my friend Justin got into XMODS. I just though they were some stupid car that only went about 5mph for only like 10 minutes. I was wrong. When he showed me his stock i was pretty impressed. But about a year later he bought lithium from Rob (xmaster). I thought it would give it at the max a 3-4mph increase. But 2 days later (Xtra fast shipping!!!) he got them in the mail. it took him a while to install and charge them, but i saw him come outside with the biggest grin on his face. I was wondering why. Well he put his XMOD down and all i heard was "WHOOSH" and it disappeared. i thought he was messing with me, but i FINALLY spotted that flying supra. I swear it was at least going 25mph just with a little upgrades. I was starting to get into XMODS and to this day me and Justin still are.
BE VERY CAREFUL THOUGH: they can be deadly to your feet as you can see in the pic.

I would vouch for your stuff over any other's any day! I have 2 (running) Civics which are hopped up with YOUR parts! The guys who play basketball at the college gym where I do my speed runs and tests all turn heads whenever one of my cars tears up the side court. My friend Ken says that nothing that small should ever be made to go that fast. I've got his gears spinning to retrofit a 2 speed auto tranny somehow! He's a smart guy, and I think he's going to do it too! We'll see! I treat them with a little more care now, because they still overheat if I drive them too hard. Regardless, I love your stuff, you'll always have me as a forever customer as long as I have an Xmod to play with!

Now for “The Accident”
I recently took a trip to Lake Powell (you already know where this is going don't you) and I thought that it might be some fun to show off all of the parts and the unbelievable speed that these things can handle.
Anyway I was going along the docks and the car went out of control and slipped off of the edge of the dock, I then threw the remote (cause those are cheap to replace) and simply jumped in after my car. I think that because of all of the aluminum it sunk immediately and I didn't have enough time to catch it before it went into the black abyss that is Lake Powell (I’m sure some people out there know what I’m talking about). At the time of the accident I had the Corvette body on it with the wild body kit and it kind of made me mad that I was stupid enough to do something like that. The people that did see my car were really amazed at Rob's work and the great detail that all of the parts got into as well as the speed that these things can handle. I told them about Rob's site and I think eight of the ten have visited the site and three of the eight have ordered from it. I just want to let the people reading these to know that if they are interested in modifying their cars, to do it through Atomicmods.com.
Now that I’ve acquired some more funds, I’ve decided to try a new project.
All of which fit under the chassis of the infamous WRX STi. I have almost every XMOD body and the STi is the only one that I have found to fit the Lithium Quick Kit. I cannot even try to outrun my car now it is so fast. Recently I attended a race in Colorado and the people there asked me "How did you get your XMOD that fast?" I just smiled and said "AtomicMods.com". The Best Parts, The Best Prices, and a lot of help from the AtomicMods.com team. My car is the fastest that I know of in Southeastern Utah, and I am proud of it.

"...thank you for the quick service and ease of ordering, it's a refreshing change."
I just wanted to pop a line and let you know how pleasantly surprised I am by your service. I mean, I haven't even gotten my parts yet, but that's because they're still in the mail. See, I ordered my parts Wed night (actually Thursday morning at 1am), and by 11am on Thursday, I had the confirmation that they had been sent staring at me from my email inbox. Less than 12 hour turn-around. I only ordered $60.00 worth of assorted little parts, but I feel like you guys treated my order the same as if I was buying $300.00 worth. So thank you for the quick service and ease of ordering, it's a refreshing change.

Rob,
Hello, this is Anthony Morton. I first want to say thanks for un-paralleled service and support. My friends and I have XMODS and the other night I unveiled this, my latest project, and blew them away literally! We were racing and I came up behind my buddy when he was at full speed, I rear-ended his civic so hard with my supra that it sent his car several feet into the air, LOL. I have almost $1,000 into this car and its the envy of my circle. I may have crossed that thin line between hobby/obsession, (see how thin that little line is) but I am loving every minute of it. Anyway here are some photos of my latest creation. I am trilled with the results and it never would have been possible without Rob and everyone at AtomicMods.com. They not only know their products inside out but they stand behind it!

I can’t even control it I might actually have to get a slower motor to be able to drive the damn thing. The thing is psychotic; you guys have seriously outdone yourself! The car does 4 wheel drive burn outs! It left rubber dust all over my floor! I think I’m going to have to add weight to slow it down or something...again many thanks to all of you. Rob you are one hell of a guy, without you my car could never be this fast and your staff, Brad and John, are the best around, it was a pleasure to work with all of you.

Not only does Rob's L-ion upgrade make your car fly, however it was a lot easier than I expected. I am a beginner at soldering so I bought the No Drill Lithium Pro Kit. I was able to complete the installation in about 2 hours with no problems at all.
Also Rob and his team provided me with excellent customer service throughout the process, every e-mail that I sent had a prompt reply that was very helpful.

Nevada AtomicBuilt
and Every Billet Aluminum Part in the store.
Ok so I am the biggest paranoid internet consumer in my neck of the woods and I would never spend a dime unless I completely feel comfortable. And Rob has managed to make me feel at complete ease. So I sent AtomicMods.com a small fortune (no really - over $1200) and I got a Nevada AtomicBuilt and all the Billet Aluminum parts I could get my hands on, I sent a money order for too much and Rob totally caught it and emailed me to make me aware of it and rectified the situation by offering me to pick out more parts to ship with my current order to save on shipping charges. Some billet parts had come in that I could not purchase at the time of my Nevada order so I paid for them a week later and had Rob install them in my Nevada. I then placed two more orders as well and got a bit confused on what was where and Rob was awesome in helping me keep everything straight. Once again he combined the order I had gotten a few days later with my big one again saving me money and he threw in a tight turn kit because of the extra shipping money left over how cool is that? Very! Rob is as honest as they come!
Ok to the car...it’s worth every last hard earned penny. It’s so fast I swear it took off into the air at one point today I still cannot believe it! The Nevada is mega fast and the aluminum parts are to die for. The car Rob built me is absolutely a work of art and as an electronic technician myself (who refuses to work on anything electronic outside of work including my XMOD) his work and products are top notch. I am a loyal customer and will continue to purchase all my parts and cars from AtomicMods.com exclusively. I suggest anyone serious about XMODS look no further than right here you won’t find anything even close.

"having seen firsthand that your quality is head and shoulders above the rest"
Rob,
I got my order in the mail today. This was my second order and again, your prompt service and excellent accuracy leads me back to ordering from you as a repeat customer.
I can really appreciate the quality work you do having recently purchased a similar product for a few dollars less from another vendor and being sadly disappointed in the craftsmanship. First off, they don't have solder tabs on their batteries, and if I understand correctly, the intense heat generated from soldering directly to the cells damages them internally resulting in shorter run times. Second, the heat shrink on the batteries is scorched and brown in a couple of spots, presumably from the soldering iron. Lastly, the motor harness is pathetic with big enormous wad of solder all balled up on the ends of the wire. There is no way I could drill a big enough hole to fit it through. The work was just plain sloppy. I guess you really do get what you pay for huh? LOL
I can say with confidence that in the future I will stick with your products. I know that I will be satisfied with the work that you do having seen firsthand that your quality is head and shoulders above the rest.
All the best to you and yours,

XMODS IN THE CLASSROOM ; A TESTIMONIAL BY MIKE RILEY
I started thinking about using XMODS in the classroom when I first saw one in our local Radio Shack store a year or so ago. Electronics is a difficult subject to teach high school students because there is so much theory and paper work involved. Most students (teenagers and adults alike) want a lot of "hands-on" learning activities. That's what I had in mind when I started looking into using XMODS as a class project.
We started last year with weekly class races on Friday. Students were required to go through some learning activities about batteries, motors, etc. We sold candy to provide money for those who didn't have the financial means to buy a car.
What has developed from this class project last year is a full fledged movement at our school. I have students lined up outside my classroom door when I get to school in the morning needing parts or wanting help getting their cars fixed. Students have become motivated to learn and don't mind as much now doing the boring paperwork stuff.
The cornerstone of the learning part of the project is our website
www.c4robotics.com/c4racing. On that site we post rules, race schedules and league standings. There is also a section called XMODS 101. There students find different kinds of learning activities. They are required to complete the assignments there to earn points for the racing league point standings. There are 13,000 points possible with only 4,000 coming from racing. Most of the points are based on different learning activities.
This has now spread over to the Drafting classes. My good friend, Mr. Sims has started using XMODS in his technical drafting classes. He has had some students do a complete drawing of an XMOD. It is awesome. He now has students wanting to join our weekly races and is designing a set of learning activities focused on technical drafting.
AtomicMods.com has been a great resource. Rob's innovative upgrades give us some fast cars as well us a lot of interesting topics to talk about in the class. Some of his "How To's" make great classroom lab activities. I use the Wet Break-in AtomicMods Style quite a bit. In this activity students learn to use the power supplies, digital multimeters, etc as well as learning some principles of DC motors. In doing the wet break-in they have to provide "before" and "after" data to show how much the upgrade really helped performance.
I have received a lot of encouragement from the administrators at my school. They quickly saw the learning value in what we were doing. I encourage other teachers to look into using XMODS as a learning tool in the classroom. It's a great way to give students hands-on learning experience that can be applied to a number of subjects.
Thanks Rob for providing a great resource and also helping me to promote the C4 Electronics Technology Program.

I opened up the turnkey from 50ft (no kidding) behind him and passed him in about 2 seconds like he was standing still! What a rush! This car is so fast its actually a little intimidating to drive.

Hey rob. My name is Michael DeCarli and I am from Connecticut. I recently purchased one of your carbon fiber drive shafts for the RSX and a SS130 Motor, and I am so pleased with the products that I decided to write you a testimonial with a picture of my car included.
Lately I have been searching on the web for effective mods for my XMOD that weren't that expensive. Through my searching of the internet and talking in XMODS forums, I found AtomicMods.com. I had e-mailed Rob with a question about the SS130 Motor, and boom I got one right back! I was amazed and I decided to stick with AtomicMods for all my XMODS needs. After installing the SS130 Motor and one of Rob's carbon fiber drive shafts, my car was "flying" down my street. They worked perfectly with my 6 cell setup and are a must-have product for all tuners who are on a low budget.
Thanks Rob,

I can’t believe the service I got with the stuff I ordered. I ordered 2 lithium pro kits, some carbon fiber drive shafts, the super stock 130, some chargers, and bearings. And first of all I want to say the service I received was incredible I don’t even think Dell's support is as good. I had a few questions and within a few minutes he had the answers. Now on to the lovely things the parts I ordered did for my car. With everything I ordered in my car I was able to climb my car windshield with no problems, I had slicks on too, I don’t even think it is possible to do that with 6 cells. I go so fast now on the ground I am out of range within seconds, and it feels good. You can be sure I will be ordering again.

"My Supra is so fast it is almost uncontrollable, the speed is ridiculous."
Hey Rob,
This is Curtis Wren here. I purchased the EP with the FET upgrade, the lithium-ion pro kit along with the 500 mAH charger. I already had the carbon fiber drive shaft, AWD, bearings, suspension, tires, etc... My Supra is so fast it is almost uncontrollable, the speed is ridiculous.
You might want to add the disclaimer that the use of the EP with FET upgrade in conjunction with Lithium-ion power system and a high performance motor may shatter the plastic stock cup joints. This happened to me. I replaced them with more plastic cup joints, warped a second set, third set is holding for now.
I wish I knew in advance that you were going to be selling aluminum cup joints. I purchased a set from Xmodspeed with deep regret because your prompt delivery of products is far superior.
I can't thank you enough for your prompt service! You have found a truly loyal customer.

Proud Owner of:

Hey, here is my Xmod. The body is a Mini-Z S2000 body that originally had a fake soft top on. I cut off the top and turned it into a convertible by adding seats, a roll cage, even a dash, steering wheel and rear-view mirror. The hardest part was that the plastic plate is very low on the electronics, I actually had to cut off the motor plug to make it fit. I also made a custom rear clip from scratch to attach it to the chassis. This car is actually not my lithium car, I have a Supra with all the go-faster mods. If it put the Lithium on my S2000, it would be too fast and would get broken with my driving : ) Thanks for the great product and service!

Hey! I just wanted to let you know that I love those Lithium Batteries. I didn't want to buy them at first, because I thought they were pricey, but I couldn't find any that are just like yours. I got my batteries in three days which impressed me. As soon as I got my batteries I installed them and I was so excited I called my friend to let him know how they were. Now he really wants to buy some now.
Now my car can do wheelies! Although not quite as good as the one in the "Wheelie Time" video. From now on, all my XMODS needs are coming from AtomicMods.com.

Robert has helped me tremendously with answering my electronics questions. He has a great response time with not only my questions but with my orders. He is a wonderful person to do business with - he really knows his stuff.
Car 1: Lithium "Quick Kit", CF shaft, stage 2 "wet-break", AWD RS Bearings along with 2 2.5mm bearings (outside front only).
Car 2: Same as above except "Pro Kit", and 4 2.5 mm bearings on front.
Both cars have incredible quickness and top speed. Everyone is amazed at how fast these cars are. Great handling - drives straight and tight. I love the upgraded wires 18 gauge wires - no wire breaks at connections!
Wife cringes when I run it in the house!

"That’s 3khm increase just from his carbon shaft."
Proud Owner of:
Carbon Fiber Shaft
I bought the set of carbon fiber drive shafts from AtomicMods.com. I placed my car on the Tamiya Speed Checker before the upgrade and it laid down 17khm. After the carbon shaft was installed it laid down 20khm. That’s 3khm increase just from his carbon shaft. This drive shaft is the real deal and defiantly is a must have for any serious about XMODs!
I have and will continue to recommend this product and website.

"I wish my local hobby shop gave me the same treatment"
True business is the first thought that comes to my mind when I think of ATOMICMODS.COM. Your endless practice to deliver quality tested products to people of all ages makes me a believer. Staying true to your reputation in the community shows how professional you handle the audience. That says a lot when we can easily get wrapped up in the younger age forums. With your other business hobbies and ideas, I can't imagine how you still can keep up with the demand of ATOMICMODS.COM customers. I wish my local hobby shop gave me the same treatment you do.
Thanks Rob

"Wide Track Bearings GREATLY improve steering response"
Proud Owner of:
Wide Track Bearings
Not only do the Wide Track Bearings GREATLY improve steering response, but since the wheels wobble less, the Power To The Ground (Acceleration/Torque) is extremely improved from stock. A MUST HAVE product for draggers, drifters, and racers..... that's everyone I think. Extremely fast shipping. BETTER RESPONSE, FASTER-STRAIGHTER TAKEOFF = HOURS OF FUN
Thanks Rob! Lithium is next!!!

"My Lithium Ion RSX has got to be at least twice as fast as my 6 cell Civic!"
When I first saw the Lithium Ion upgrade of Rob's I was a little skeptical. I figured, 3.6v x 2 = 7.2v and 1.2v x 6 = 7.2v, so why not just use the 6 1.2v AAA batteries I already have. So I installed a 6 cell on my Civic and I noticed an increase of power, but not that much in actual performance due to the extra weight my car had to carry. I ran my 6 cell set up for a while and all was well, until I decided to buy a RSX. I figured, "what the hey, I'll just get the Lithium quick kit for my RSX instead of going through the hassle of fitting a 6 cell on my tiny RSX". So I ordered it and only a few days later it was at my door. I was really surprised at how quick it shipped. After Installing my quick kit I tested it in my kitchen and as soon as my finger hit the throttle my jaw hit the floor! I was just blown away at how fast it was. My Lithium Ion RSX has got to be at least twice as fast as my 6 cell Civic! I am very, very pleased with my quick kit and I plan on doing business with Rob again.
Thank you very much Rob!

"THIS CAR IS STUPID FAST!"
Proud Owner of:
Nagasaki AtomicBuilt
When I purchased the Nagasaki AtomicBuilt, it was supposed to be a gift. But as fate would have it, I became the proud owner this car. I cannot stress enough how impressed I am by this car's performance. I knew it would be fast, but not THIS FAST! The speed on this car is ridiculous. This car, straight out of the box, was going so fast I could barley handle it and this is not my first XMOD. I had to switch it to low speed to keep it under control. I have never seen an XMOD with so much torque and top end speed. I am a grown man but when I first drove this bad boy, I was so stupefied & awestruck that I was giggling and jumping up and down like a little kid again.
THIS CAR IS STUPID FAST!
I never would have thought that an XMOD could perform like this Nagasaki Turnkey can. From now on, ALL my XMODS are going to have parts from AtomicMods.com.
Thanks for building me an amazing car Rob,

"I was so impressed with your prompt service & delivery"
Thanks for bringing this uninformed Dad up to speed on these little cars. Haven't given the carbon fiber driveshaft I ordered to my son yet (it's a surprise), but I was so impressed with your prompt service & delivery, I wanted to send kudos right away. I'm sure my son will be excited to install this 1st little secret to stay ahead of his friends. You've got a very informative site & offer a great service. In fact, you even enticed me to pick up a Skyline so I can join in on the fun. I'll let my son have a little fun with all his mods for a bit, then I'll be seeing you for a lithium upgrade...hehehe
Thanks Again!

The cells work great. My car is now by definition a rocket, and it's all thanks to Rob. After adding the Lithium Ion cells, and wide track bearings, I am really tearing up the track. The speed and cornering are amazing. The Wide Track Bearings really work well, my car drives a lot straighter now without all that extra side to side motion. Everyone I race can't help but to look in awe of how much faster my car is than theirs. Thanks Rob, you will be getting my business from now on.

I have been tweaking XMODS since December '03 and in the last two months I've been looking on the net for ideas on how to make it faster. I've done almost everything from bigger motors, 5v regulators, six cell and even a eight cell with regulation. I recently found AtomicMods.com, and at first was unsure if the Lithium Power systems were really worth the money. But I took the plunge and now my car is beating all my friends who are running 6 and 8 cell cars with these so called big block engines. Thanks to Rob, my Skyline has enough power to pop a wheelie!! Don't believe me, watch the
Wheelie Time video. Imagine how much more power I'll have when I get Rob's Nuke 130SM or even his 180S motor. So if you looking for the best XMOD upgrade on the planet, you just found it.
I am a believer now...nothing will go into my next car but AtomicMods.com Lithium cells.

Proud Owner of:
Four LI 650 Lithium Ion Cells
Rob's Comments: Josh really know his stuff, and I have learned quite a bit from reading his posts in the XMOD forums. Josh just bought the 4 Lithium batteries from me and did all of his own work, so if you have questions drop him a line. He loves to talk about XMODS.
Here is a
Video of Josh's Car breaking 40MPH on a Tamiya speed checker.
I have an electronic engineering background and can speak with great authority when I say, "Rob's Lithium Power System is the very best for the XMODS, bar none!" I was truly impressed with the way Rob sought out the best power systems for these vehicles, tested it, and packaged it for the rest of us. The power per volume is unparalleled by any cylindrical cell available. It is only with his cells that I am able to achieve 16.8V while staying with stock chassis, suspension, and body. Rob's cells allow me to maintain a very decent center of gravity as well.
Thanks Rob, Double Thumbs Up!!

Where to start? How about with the throttle barely pulled and your opponent still sitting in the gates. Rob has come through in a major way on my car. I just got my beloved baby back from her 2 weeks absence and boy does she fly! The work that was done by Rob was impeccable to say the least. The turn around time was awesome and the services provided were by far the best. I was rather skeptical in the beginning just because of the price - simply because you drop $200 off the top just getting the car and all your accessories. But what I got back from Rob was well worth it all. Not only would I do business with Rob again I will definitely pass on his name to many of my friends!!!! Rob's mods are so worth every penny.
Rob - once again, thanks for everything....!!!!!

"Doing business with Rob was nothing short of perfect!!"
The power increase from the Lithium Ion upgrade is absolutely unreal. The car is almost completely uncontrollable! I plan on doing a few more modifications to my XMODS, and racing it against 1/16 scale cars at my local RC race track. Those guys will never know what hit them! Who would expect a 1/27 size car to be so fast? It throws soft tires like there's no tomorrow... and hard tires are only good for tire spin and drifting on hard surfaces, so tire tack or super glue (if you want permanent mount) is definitely recommended if you want grip with this car. Shipping was fast, and Rob was very responsive to emails. Doing business with Rob was nothing short of perfect! I'll be sure to hand out AtomicMods.com stickers to all the losers I smoke with my Mini-Missile!
Thanks again Rob, I'm very happy with your product.
Sincerely, PJ

"The weight savings is astounding!"
Proud Owner of:
Lithium Pro Power Upgrade & Charger
I bought the Lithium Pro Power System from AtomicMods.com and the charger to match them. The charger puts out 8.4 volts and is adjustable. The charger needs 12 volts so a car battery or 12 volt power supply will do. It trickle charges the batteries after they have reached almost full capacity. The batteries charge up to 8.4 volts and after a few minutes they drop down to 7.5 and stay there for 45 minutes running all out with my motor which is a Braun rewound to 40 turns. I have never run them below 7 volts and I have run for an hour. A hotter motor of course will get less run time.
The weight savings is astounding! I used to run a 6 cell IC3 setup which weighed twice as much as the Lithium setup. The car now has a much lower center of gravity and drifts around turns at twenty that I used to have to take at ten. I would not go back to the Ic3. The LI670s have made the car perform better overall with much longer run time, improved handling and increased power.
Thanks and God bless

"Its incredible how fast the car is now!"
I have a Acura RSX + ball bearing + AWD + Li-ion Pro Cells and stage 2 motor with the yellow gear. I tried the 5 Cell and 6 Cell, and while it was an improvement over stock, still no big deal, and only 10 min to 13 min working time, very boring. With the AtomicMods Lithium cells from Rob I get 40 min to 50 min driving with max power. Its incredible how fast the car is now! The upgrade requires some skill, but its really no big deal.
This is the best upgrade I have done to my car, and I highly recommend it.
Best regards

I received a set of CF drive shafts from AtomicMods.com. They fit perfectly, nice and weigh less. The acceleration and top end improved immediately. Nice work Rob! Carbon Fiber is the way to go.
Sorry the review is so short and sweet. But what more can I say. Rob is a reliable source for quality upgrades and I will continue to do business with him.
