How to root stock 4.3 GE?

So I updated to all stock 4.3 GE but can't flash the needed superuser zip. Do I need to flash a custom recovery than root and after that flash stock recovery back? Is there any way to root with stock recovery directly?
Thanks.

Yes, you need custom recovery for root. No need to change recovery back until the next update is due at which time I believe you will have to unroot and go back to completely stock which can be done by running the RUU again.

I believe you would need to flash CWM or TWRP then flash the superuser.zip then flash back the stock recovery afterwards.
can someone post the superuser.zip?

if you want to root it on .201 firmware,you must unlock the bootloader
if you don't want to unlock bootloader,flash 4.1.2 firmware,root it & flash a pre-rooted 4.3 rom

For unlocked bootloader try Rom Manager.
It's the easiest way to install CWM !
