Well after much hard work and experimentation I have successfully mosfet modded a ZipZap SE to have a significant increase in speed and torque as well.
The stock ZZ SE with a red 21.5 motor and blue (12:1) gears trundles along at a pitiful 4.5km/h (about 3mph) which is a real yawn.
I delved in the the driving/switching circuits and came up with a way to triple the driving speed of the car, increase the torque and keep all the proportionality of the control, both in speed and steering.
It now loves the high speed motors and the tall gears.
If you put in a purple 3.4 ‘turbo’ motor, and the red gears (8.25:1) it will now scream along at around 13 km/h (around 8.5 mph) with full speed control in a smooth range from 5 to 13 km/h (3 to 8.5 mph).
It takes the best corners, with the propo control it will turn wide or sharp, but all the time you are in total control.
It is kinda strange to have such good control of these tiny cars at these speeds, but hey I’m not complaining.
I can’t put it down, only problem is that I have to return it to its owner in the USA.
More info on my website,

What I am going to do is offer my services to do this mod for people, same as when I was doing FET mods to BCGs and standard ZZs and clones. (and yes I am still doing these mods as well if you want one done, email me or check my website)
I am still charging US$20 for a FET mod, you send the car to me, I mod it, test it, and send it straight back. It really does kick arse once it is modded. Just like a fet modded BCG, only a little heavier. Get into it.

TitaniuMonkey, these cars sell for US$25 in the States (plus postage) and the mods I have been doing have always been US$20. 🙂Edited by – micro_Amps on 20 October 2003 10:32:39
