I've got the Europe edition and don't feel you need anything else to make it work for starters. I have installed some option parts already, but (almost) limited myself to buying set-up option parts like the gullwing front axle and rear aluminum hangers. I got a good deal on the steering parts and the servo mount, otherwise I might not have gotten them.
At first I thought about the aluminum upper front suspension mounts, but dismissed it. After reading about front arm breakages I boiled the standard arms for 30 minutes, my gullwing arms withstood a lot of abuse without any issues so far. If you are buying the standard kit, get those swaybar sets including the thicker swaybar sets. Other than that, I'd say give it a go as it is, those plastic shock towers are massive.

Yokomo Europe Kit with the carbon towers and roll bars is a great starting point, you could build it and run it fine without and extras. The belts will feel tight, but will loosen up. Others have had issues with arms breaking, I've not, and have had some serious hits. I'm not convinced about boiling them anyway. The new rear arms are a redesign of the original Bmax4iii arms. They thickened the areas around the hingepin which used to break, now they are breaking in the middle where the shock screws in. I'd suggest not cranking the shock bottom screws in tight and they will last like mine have.
As you have the yz2, they pair up well. Lots of common parts, the rear ends are basically the same, and work the same for setup. I did bling mine out from the initial build, but don't see a problem with the kit. I didn't like the plastic servo mounts, but they will work fine. I don't think any part is weak, but I have seen a couple of people melt the front clicker, but not sure how loose that were running it? There is also a yz2 - yz4 Facebook group that's pretty active with build tips and setup hints.

I found the clicker to be quite weak.
I ran it on full lock. But then it will last about 10-15 packs. #You can modify the clicker to work like the other pulley's. #Buy a set of plastic rear pulleys. They fit on the front. # buy the aluminium upgrade.

However, sins the start of the FB group, Oople has gone quiet. No way to find that info in FB as the post drops down. Wish people would see that and start using the forum again.

Hello
Thanks for the information as to the YZ4, I have ordered a car so will see how it goes in standard form. FB, PP EBAY and the rest it is as George Orwell predicted, I bet some where someone is looking at this very post that has nothing to do with RC. Neale
