Yes you are correct that a high end car in this day and age should not need extra shock o rings, bladders ect. The supplied shocks in every high end touring car should be nothing short of brilliant.
With the upgraded parts the shocks are ok but not as good as TRFs or kyoshos.
A lot of cars need diff gear sanding.
At least the BD7 arms don't need sanding or a shim in the C hub to knuckle like the 418.
Floating servo mount dcjs different suspension mounts for front and rear aluminum diff cams. Ok 200 might be high but not way too high. And I've never sanded an Xray dif other than where it cut it off the parts tree
