If you don't mind. What did you pay?
As for the arms, Go with RPM.
 
as for all of it I've got about 375 just in the truck is that bad you wouldnt go with graphite a-arms how much will those rpms run me and what else would you suggest me getting in order to getting it race ready
 
the a-arms are uaslly in the 10 dollar range for set of two and same price for rears but if i were you id stick with the stock rears becuase they give you the abilty to lengthen,shorten your wheelbaseand if your going to be racing go pick up a couple packs of different tension springs becuase different track=diff springs heres a great site that will help alot its got ton of info on the rc10gt

Ditto. If your going into the race aspect of the hobby, I would follow Losers advise.
 
The robinson ti top shat is nice, but I use pretty much just the stock stuff in the trannie. Use stock arms instead of the rpm ones, since they are way to flexible for racing, if you ask me.

Ummm, You'll want atleast silver and green springs for the rear, and atleast silver, green and blue for the front.

I would also change to the losi drake header, and the stock pipe instead of the mip stinger setup. Just for that fact, that if you come down on the ass end of the truck it could possibly get clogged with dirt.

And read up on the gt site. :D
