What else are u guys using or recommending? Spring kits also?

Just switch the front outdrives out to the steel ones and you won't have to worry about replacing parts there in the future. My car has a lot of packs through it running only 4.5 motors and I'm still on the original set of steel outdrives and they show no wear.
Honestly you don't need many hopup parts to make the car good, it already comes pretty loaded out of the box. The only other thing you might want to do would be to check out what your local fast guys are running for shock springs/pistons/oil and switch over to that setup. HPI Silver springs are very popular for outdoors, while Yokomo Pink and Blue seems to be the favorite on carpet.

As Randy indicated, the steel spool outdrives are a good upgrade as well. I broke many of the plastic OEM ones, and a few sets of the AE Delrin aluminum capped ones, went to the steel, and have been good. Currently I'm using the Reflex Aluminum ones just to experiment, and they look great.

Hi, I don't know but I have a different degrees angle of rear toe in!
On the left side 4 deg. while on the right side perfectly 3 deg. I have already changed everything both Alu and plastic parts. The car is new never used. Any advice to fix it?
Thank you

That is something I experienced with all my TC5 & TC6s. I ignored it for most of the time, but of course you can work against it with different inserts (outbord toe).
