The chassis is hard anodized, the topdeck, shock towers, body, wheels and tires, the rear motor guard, universals maybe more but can't remember.

^ that... but not the motor guard. You did also get adjustable camber links, wing tubes, stabilizers, 240st motor, heavy duty speed control, ball diff, and I think it came with a hard final pinion.
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

For the original 3115-3116 Ultimas
The Ultima Turbo is an Ultima with...
Duraluminium chassis.
Lexan body
Chrome wheels
Shock towers and radio plate are made from black fiberglass.
Sway bars
Adjustable (threaded rod) upper suspension arms.
Ball diff and full ball bearings.
Universal joints.
A nicer mechanical speed control.
Motor is the Le Mans 240ST.

Re: What’s the difference between the Ultima and the Turbo Ultima?
When I restored my Turbo Ultima a billion years ago now, I remember remembering that I had to buy the motor guard separately AND I wore out the final pinion which was replaced with the hard version. So the list that radioactivity posted is correct. Later, I added the W5005 adjustable turnbuckles. I think after that, Kyosho included their turnbuckle sets as standard on other Turbo buggies...maybe.
