I've been shopping on RC Jaz for years and love them. Excellent service and stock.
Yes, the 53983 is designed to fit M-03 mounting points. Check motor height and pinion choice to avoid gear mesh issues.
Most modern ESCs and standard lipo or NiMH packs used in touring cars will work. Ensure your ESC can handle the current draw and set appropriate timing if required.
Inspect brushes and commutator after several run sessions and clean or replace brushes as soon as wear affects performance. Using ITEM 53581 and ITEM 53486 simplifies maintenance.
Yes, it is suitable for newcomers who want a manageable increase in power, but tune your gearing and throttle control to keep handling predictable.
