I agree. keeps the drivetrain nice and light too. I've only done the outer diff bevel gear and 14T bevel drive gears, solved by shimming the 14T bevel a touch. no issues since I did that.

I've built a spare diff with metal gears, but only as i had them just incase i broke composites, but i didn't. its just heavier.

Metal gears are a tuning part I think. I very much doubt they will be in the 2014 kit spec, as Martin doesn't use them either.
