Don't worry about trying to get your shocks to 0% rebound. You'll never tell the difference and they're much more likely to leak air past the seal. Why? Because if the pressure in the shock is = pressure outside the shock at 0 static extension, then when the shock is extended, inner pressure < outer air pressure which means it's trying to suck air into the shock.
But, for those who absolutely insist on trying it, build your shocks like normal, then turn them upside down, work the shaft slowly a few times and let them sit awhile upside down. Then take a hair dryer on low setting and warm all 4 shocks up equally. Bleed the first one using the book method of loosening the lower cap and pushing the shaft in. Then warm all 4 back up (won't take much unless you're reeeeeaaaaallly slow) and do the next. It might a take a few tries to get a "feel" for how much to bleed and how warm to get them, but once you get it, no problems... Plus, warming the oil up helps get more air out.

what is included in the box and what is not?
i know that remote and receiver are definitely not included but what about servo, esc and motor? what about damper oil? i know it includes diff oil and grease.
i can't find this info anywhere and i am tempted to buy this.

I got No diff grease in my Kit. Shock oil and that's it.
EDIT,
Too many TC builds in the last few weeks. Mine did come with ball diff grease, graphite and shock oil.

My kit had graphite grease [for CV axle joints], diff grease, and shock oil.
But yes, it is a kit, no electronics, no tires, no body, no wheels.

Hello all!
I jumped the Xray wagon this year with the T3'11 after 7 years with other brand, and i could not be happier!!
The car is great, handles great (even with very low traction), very responsive to all setup changes...
Only raced im once! TQ and Win the 13.5 Boosted Stock Class in tarmac.
The shocks are a PITA but after you play with them for awhile they work great.
So far so good...
