get aluminum parts like A arms or shock towers, or graphite parts like an upper deck, or get a new motor if you have enough cash

Defintely center skid plate and failsafe. A 3 or 4 shoe clutch with aluminum pads.
Although I am not very experienced, I don't think the metal spur gear and hardened clutch bell are neccesary if the mesh is set up right. From what I have read, some people end up getting a super strong spurgear after the plastic one strips or breaks ( due to bad mesh), then the stock clutch bell gets damaged because of working with a superstrong spur and bad mesh). I also fell for the aluminum shocks but readread it is better to have the stock nylon ones.. so you have the plastic rubbing against metal spring instead of metal on metal. Apparently there is supposed to be less friction and they work better. If you do get some aluminium ones do NOT get the hot bodies. I have
Broken the seal on 4 of them so far. I am sure the other 4 aren't far behind. What is the graphite upper deck.. I think I want one
