SuperMaxx E-Maxx Hardened Steel Idler Kit

This is the center CVDs needed for the extended GMAXX chassis which is highly recommended when going brushless:
SuperMaxx Titanium Center Driveshaft Kit, EXT Electric Chassis

2 - Integy Aluminum Diff Case

2 - Integy Gear Box Collar

You will have to get the esc to go with that motor.

I would also recommend you go with Gorilla Maxx G2 X-Brace Motor Mount

Have you looked at the 9L and Warrior 9918 as an alternate solution?

Yes its very fast and a lot cheaper. The 9L is for 14 cells. If you are running 12 cells you will want the 8L.

Feigao brushless motor 540 9L

Warrior 9918 Brushless Car Controller

I would suggest going with the BEC so you dont need to run a receiver pack and get the RC Monster Heatsink/Motor Clamp

External BEC/UBEC



RC-Monster Brushless Heatsink/clamp

Partially. You can stay stock for a bit depending on how you drive but you will have to upgrade these parts sooner than later. The high power brushless motors will wear these stock parts quick. IMO you will save yourself a lot of headaches if you upgrade now.
