So I was wondering if following combination is a complete kit:

http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...imited-Edition
Because this also seems to have for about $150 retail in optional parts and accessories included...

in combination with the electric conversion kit of Rc Monster:

or is the Team Associated electric conversion kit still necessary?

If you have the money this Fasctory Team limited edition the right choice for the reasons you already mentioned.

The brushless conversion set of AE is a real good direct fit and for sure good quality to make a clean setup.
The RC-monster conversion although seems to have just those little extra's for the finishing touch. But it is likely that you need to be a pro to feel the difference...
The rc-monster conversion is because of the extra chassis a little bit higher in price, but one can sell the original chassis of the AE kit (and ofcourse the nitro stuff) on ebay to get some extra $$...

So far I see that the RC8 FE (factory team editions) with the steering mod are one oft the most reliable truggies in the market, in not the most reliable and toughest. Extremely strong plastic parts (arms) and reliable drivetrain. It's hard to break something. I first had an 8-t brushless. Reliable also but not as tough as the RC8T FE and now I see quite a lot of new MBX6-t's on the tracks with broken arms and diff (shim-shim-shim...) problems...

The limited edition has quite some interesting extra's...
