For durability, I have been running the following optional parts for just under a year of decently hard and often bashing with no issues.

Reinforced belt
Aluminum pulley wheels
Steel differential gears
Slipper clutch

No melty ball diffs to worry about. The transmission gears are pretty solid. Slipper clutch is key with a super high power systems.

If you check on the RC crawlers forum rally section, there is a member who runs some crazy totally overpowered KV motors for off road rally. From what I've read, no real issues.

Good luck.
Slipper clutch is really needed? I´m driving it stock, with a 13.5T brushless motor and i´m thinking on some updates, but the car runs as the first day ^^
