Default help needed for lrp shark

hey guys,
I'm completely new in the 1/18th area. " have a losi mini-t pro and mini lst2) but not race cars
I have bought a lrp shark for 35 euros. now I have seen that everyone convert him to the st version. now, my question is: what do I need.
i have searched and came to this.

1 DTXC8210 KNUCKLE ARM FR VENDETTA ST (2)
1 DTXC6264 PIVOT BALL STUD VEND ST (6)
1 DTXC9247 SHOCK TOWER FR AL VENDETTA ST
1 DTXC9248 SHOCK TOWER RE AL VENDETTA ST
1 DTXC9344 UPPER ARM RE VENDETTA ST (2)
1 DTXC9543 UPPER ARM FR VENDETTA ST (2)
1 DTXC9585 SUSP ARM FRONT VENDETTA ST (2)
1 DTXC9586 SUSP ARM REAR VENDETTA ST (2)
1 DTXC9652 TIE ROD SET VENDETTA ST


Parts not necessary needed
QUOTE
1 DTXC6432 BODY MOUNT SET VENDETTA ST
1 DTXC7461 DRIVE SHAFT VENDETTA ST (4)
2 DTXC9688 SQ BLOCK TIRE VENDETTA ST (2)
2 DTXC9849 DISH WHEEL WHT VENDETTA ST (2)
1 DTXC6576 BODY UNPAINTED & DECAL VEND ST
2 DTXC9012 SHOCK SET COMPLETE VEND ST (2)

is this correct or not
because it says that the other drive shafts are not needed but that seems weird, because the arms are longer.
..
i also orderd a lrp carbon conversion kit, this one.

I wouldn't bother with the standard aluminium shock towers as they bend easily. Go to the forum www.uk-microrc.co.uk and look at rcmodelimports. They do a pair of towers designed by Carl "Frogger" Venter which are carbon fibre, much stronger and with extra holes for more adjustment (probably cheaper than LRP parts too).

Check out the Shark section for ideas and mods.

This crops up every so often. You're best bet is to either run it as is, or get an ST version (Shark ST / Blaze ST etc) as it normally works out just as expensive to upgrade a standard shark / blaze as it is to buy a new one.
