have a look in the Kyosho section, this question has been answered many times in there. Loads of info on upgrades and shimming the diffs correctly.

So far I have added front metal suspension holder, metal shock tower mounts front and rear, Atomic carbon front shock tower sandwiched with the original for added strength, Atomic carbon rear shock tower mount, front CVD's (otherwise you lose a lot of dogbones) and Atomic Carbon top deck which reduces flex.

All on Nathans recommendations and must say the car is a lot stronger now.
