Also, what are good brands for this? (I know not to order Element, so I'm going to have to order out of the states to get this stuff)

Yea here too (usual limit is 425fps w/.20's) but when our team scrims, were all ok with hot guns as long as the shooter is skilled and knows how to place his shots.
The standard hop up in the couple that ive owned has been quite good actually, replacing the rubber with a guarder clear and the nub with an scs should be leaps and bounds over the stock set up.
As far as your bushings go if you have a O.D stock, grip and hand guard it will have POM (plastic) bushings and if its the black stock, grip and hand guard it will most likley have factory installed steel bushings. In reality it is cheap gun and not worth throwing tons of money on the best parts cause some of the time the tolerences are not up to spec in all cases and may not work with other parts. modify parts are pretty well priced and work great with the cyma internals so there is a good option (airsoftparts.ca stocks a good chunck of there product line) guarder could be another option too, but they have been going downhill scince modify stopped making there parts. Ive also built another kraken with all the previously listed modify parts except the spring which I replaced with a modify S110+ and I threw in a modify polycarb piston head (non silent type) just for good messure. It was a champ of a cheap-o gun and the current owner is still using it as his primary after 1-1/2 years.
