I am not the best to answer but this is what I have picked up from other drivers if I say anything wrong someone correct me.

Front strings Blue and Silver No 2 piston 35wt oil

Rear springs Silver No 1 piston 25 or 30wt oil

Motor between 10 and 13 any lower will be to much.

Hope this helps.

What to get? It depends on how much you want to do to your car, you can just get blue front springs, silver rear, 35 and 30 weight oil and be done.. but if you like to play then -

Blue front springs (must have)
Silver front springs
Blue rear springs (indoor 100% carpet track)
green springs (never know)
Silver rear springs (must have)

Get AE 25, 30, 35 and 40 weight oil
You already get all the pistons with the kit, although i've not wanted to change them yet!
Get a few packs of O rings, and greenslime for ace shocks

Motors? How long have you been racing? If not long then a 19 turn would be great.. if for a while a good wind for outdoors is 10x2, indoors id say 12x1

It helps, although it depends on the amount of grip. A stiffer rear end gives more steering in some cases, but if you run silvers the car rolls more and gives more rear end.

I tend to keep my car on blue front / silver rear almost all the time. the only time ive really needed to go to grey or blue rears is on 100% super high grip carpet - which I don't really race on that often.
