Planning out my upgrades
Hi everyone...Just purchased my Z a month ago (promptly put it in storage...cold up here!) and spending the winter months planning/purchasing my upgrades. The car will be a driver/occasional use track car...and getting ready, eventually, to run it in the 2015 One Lap of America. Here is the caveat...It is "unofficially" my wife's summer fun car, so I made a promise to her that other than the exhaust, she will barely notice any changes..to which she agreed, as long as the exhaust isn't TOO loud.
So I will be doing some upgrades in stages, and I don't want to purchase anything that is going to become useless later.
So what I'm looking for is feedback on my plan of attack. I would prefer people who KNOW their stuff..ie, no "I like this exhaust because it sounds better". NOTE, I also race Spec Miata, many years of Solo and Prosolo, WKA karting...blah blah blah...I'm not a novice.
So enough with the intro..here is my plan:
This Winter:
Oil cooler (FI new kit)
CJM Fuel Pump
Stillen Brake Ducting
Stillen G3 intakes
Stillen CBE
FI Resonated HFC
Uprev Tune
Then:
Front and Rear Whitelines Swaybars
SPL Endlinks
Robitech Harness Bar
Diff Cooler cover (until I get a quaife)
By next year:
18x10 square setup Forgestar wheels
Bilstein Coilovers
SPL camberarms? (still researching these)
Eventually a Quaife Diff...
Let the feedback, and discussion, begin. And thanks for your help!
