For GT3, skip the swaybars
For springs, I would get the basic tuned spring set, that will have whites all the way to reds, combined with the set that comes with the kit, you should be good
As far as other hop ups,
53952 Center one way
53847 RC TA05 46mm Assem Univ Shaft - get 2 sets
53919 RC TA05 Alum Diff Joint
54095 RC Alum Racing Steering Set - TB03
84007 RC 46mm Ltwgt Swing Shaft -

Those would be the first ones that I would get

What about spare parts? None of my local hobby stores even carry this car. I I don't want to be caught without spare parts! Does anyone have an idea which are comon parts to be broken?

What would be a good FDR starting point? I am currently running my TA05R in Vintage Trans Am with a 5.0 FDR. I assume that this will need to be quite different when I throw a silver can motor in there.

Thanks,
Jim
