I have an easy way to start new ball cups.
If you have a body reamer, open up the very end just a tad. If you don't an X-Acto blade can do the same thing being careful. squirt a lil black grease inside and thread on the turnbuckle. thread them on and off several times to get the threads cut in well and you should be good to go! Wipe off any excess grease after your done!

But my opinion is the only things you need to get for this car to be extremely competitive in stock or mod is the flat arms and tower and the b5 rear motor rear arms (those are not a must but deff allow you to drive the car harder bc they give you more grip). I would also recommend getting a Schelle bearing kit bc the stock bearings suck! Also get some aluminum hexes for the rear of the car. And last get either the Schelle Nova slipper or a V2 associated slipper bc the VTS is not a very consistent slipper, it really is to much for a 2wd car.
Now if you're running stock I would recommend a puck system and an aluminum top shaft, only bc the mid motor is a little on the heavy side and this will not only take away some weight but it also lightens your drive train so you can get up to speed faster.
These are really the only things you need for the car. The car is extremely competitive out of the box these things just help it be even more competitive.
Hope this helps!
