Pinion gear for HK-450GT Pro IS included in the kit.It is a 13T pinion.Read the reviews carefully to select a proper pinion gear.Depending on the KV rating of the motor that you choose,you could have excessive head speed if you match it up with the wrong pinion gear.A lot of people use the 11T pinion with the Turnigy 2215 3500kv motor and are pleased with its performance.More experienced 3D heli pilots may choose to gain a bit more performance by increasing the head speed a tad but this is only recommended for those that truly know what they are doing.An 11T pinion is a good starting point for entry to mid skill/sports level pilots.Excessive head speed can be a dangerous thing in the wrong hands.Good flying!

That is correct the 450GTprodoes come with the heli.
It depends on what style you buy as to what parts come with what some are metal frames and plastic blade grips like the 450 v2 and others are the carbon fibre frame and metal blade grips like the 450gt and 450gt pro, they all have a good and bad points depends on what you want and what extras you can get from Local Hobby Store if necessary.
Best thing you can do is as Turbobeaver said read as many reviews as you can and ask questions, people on Hobby King and forum are more than happy to help.
