A-main hobbies stocks the parts and TOP Racing USA always has what I need. Every order I've made from TOP has been at my door in two days. You can't beat that. The only part I've broken was the steering bellcrank after a very hard hit. I did replace my spool cups today because they were developing some slop. I believe that most people are moving to the steel outdrives or the Titanium Racing spool. Very good car.

does anyone know if T.O.P. is going to offer a 2deg rear hub eventually

On the topic of spurs, I've actually chosen to trim the outer edge of the pegs of the spur adaptor rather than ream the spur gears (I have a Kawada on it but the Kimbro also fits after this mod). The downside of this is you lose a little material for the screws to grip.
Hopefully some Photon-specific spurs should be available soon.

Running outboard toe-in (ie.. hubs angled in at 2 degrees) allows the suspension to operate with less binding. It gives the car a different feeling on the track. You have to move the arms forward on the hinge pin also to get the same wheelbase since the spacers are not angling the arm forward.
