Ive put in some new shock caps, aluminium hubs rear and front with aluminium spindles, the gen III radio tray and some new savox servos. Also got the RE11 tuned pipe on order, rear mud guards and aluminium covered wheels nuts.

its already got the alluminum rear hubs, not sure if it has new shock caps whats the difference between stock and new ones?, i was going to get a ace servo because my lhs cant get savox, im converting it to brushless cause my mom doesnt like nitro she says its to loud :P

I have the 2.0 rtr which is what i thought you had bud. the shock caps are to eliminate temperature variations i believe in the shock compression. Im still pretty new to all this and trying to get my car ready for the new season. Is there a nitro racin season in canada close by you? Im going to wasaga this summer and was gonna bring mine along for some fun

The 8ight 2.0 is extremely durable and runs great out of the box. Mine is absurdly fast and after close to 60 tanks, I have yet to break a single part.

I have had one for a couple of months now, put the good diff oil in the diffs, they come from the factory with grease, yes alum. caps for the shocks.
I also put the rear skid plate and the front plate on my car, upgrade to good servos, it also still has the factory radio tray and i have had a blast with it..
Very good choice....
