BRP front bumper, and trinity foam bumper and a EPIC Binary 7 single to test the first two items!:D lol, jk. Really though, get the first two items. Yokomo shock caps with bleeder screws will make building shocks 100X easier and they are only like $6 if u can find em (speedtechrc.com should have em). You can mill the chassis to move the batteries further in, guys have been doing that for over a year now, and its FREE! Also dont buy an hpi body, please. I highly sugest limiting your selection to Protoform, stratus (the new losi scoda is a copy), stratus 2.0, alfa 2.0 (ugly as sin, but steers like a champ), or the mazda 6 (if you can find one). They last the best and handle the best.

Motor... Are you racing? If so I would HIGHLY suggest racing stock, and getting a trinity monster, or EPIC (only if they allow it, since its legality is quesitonable, some tracks allow it, some dont... For bashing, get a high turn mod, like a chaemelion or something like that.

stormperson,
I'm thinking of getting a tc3. How's the Mercedes CLK body? That's the one I was interested in getting. Is it better/worse than the Alfa or Stratus? Thanks. :)
