Just read through the whole thread and man am I jealous. I wish I had the $$ to spend to do exactly what your doing, Ive slowley been trying to make it out for a track day but I never seem to have the money to drop on the parts. I recently had just about everything ready to go in, (oil cooler, brakes, wheels) then I felt the csc issue coming back. Its about 60k on this clutch so I figured it was time to replace it with something but that had to be payed for so I ended up getting rid of all my other stuff.

In due time, Ill be out there on the southern Cali track days. But until then, Ill just drool over your build lol

Just read the whole thread and really enjoyed it. Great to see the progression from stock to where you're at now.

Hey guys! It's been a while! I didn't mean for this to die for those who are following lol. So to get up to speed, the remainder of the season was a success. I managed to mix it up with some top guys in September at Autoclub infield, and after that event my tires lost grip pretty rapidly. I managed to attend two more days, at the Autoclub Roval couse for Nissfest, and Buttonwillow counter-clockwise. Neither of which were very succewssful outings, with the cherry on top being a Tony Hawk 900 spin at 100mph at Buttonwillow, nearly hitting a flagmans post lol. Anyways, this is a just a quick update. I will provide some detail into tire performance, and my journey with the base brakes and oem pads and ebc yellows, non of which I've been happy with. Cheers!

Yes I have. Its not every event, but there have been a couple specific corners on specific tracks that I've experienced fuel cut. Its a very annoying thing lol. I fill my car to the brim before I hit the track. I think I will also pick up a gas can too, as I hit fuel cut in the afternoon sessions

haha thanks man I appreciate the kind words! Once you get a cooler and brake pads and fluid youll be good to go! I understand the money for parts problem, as I've been trying to save for an upgraded brake package for like 6 months now lol. For now I just do the best with what I have
