Default RC8 Must have upgrades and spares

Hi Guy's, I have an original RC8. I am totally new to this.
My setup is as follows:

Novarossi 367 .21 Buggy engine.
Spektrum DX3s Transmitter
SR3300T Receiver
Futaba BLS351 Steering Servo
Futaba S9155 Throttle servo

To me the car runs great! However I am a bit concerned about the age of the car and the parts compatability with the RC8B and RC8.2

The car has a few blue alluminium bits (A,B,C&D plate and chassis brace)
The Top plate is still plastic, there is also carbon fibre parts ( Towes, Servo holder)

Please can someone advise me on the essential upgrades?. What are the common parts? Should I upgrade the suspention? If yes, how? Please note that I will have to buy parts of ebay, so please be specific. Should i bid for this? (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/team-assoc...item3a6ca881da)
