brakes (just pads and braided lines if you have sport package), cooler, Wheels will give better return on investment than suspension I'd say, but I'm no expert.

Here's a little more in depth analysis (that I've caught a lot of grief over...but still i think is pretty valid)
Diamond in the rough.

I'm curious to see how the car does stock in that regard. I've flogged it pretty hard in the mountains for a good hour or two when I got it, and I didn't see over 235ish. I pay very close attn to my oil, and I consider myself a bit of an oil snob, as I browse BITOG oil forums religously. lol.

If it gets too high, then on goes the cooler, though!

Just saw your last post...I've got a base.

The Quaife is awesome up until you try to run in snow. It's great for dry and wet but acts open if you lift a wheel or have zero traction.

SurfDog · 09-25-2014, 07:21 PM

I've been tracking (not racing) on the sport brakes and two piece rotors. I'm no expert but I'd say that brake setup is totally adequate on the track. I'm putting 275 race rubber up front soon so I'll get back to you with real racing brake impressions after I do some seriously heavy stops soon.

SurfDog · 10-07-2014, 06:33 PM

Hey denver guys. I think I'm done tracking for the season, so I'm putting in a bunch of parts next week.

1. SPL upper control arms
2. White line sway bars.
3. Reinstall my Z1 brake rotors. (Their in backwards... Oops)
4. Mount up my 18 inch square tire setup.

Anyhow if anybody has parts laying around and are up for a bolt on tech day ( not Tuesday Wednesday or Thursday.) let me know. This stuff is always more fun with a buddy.

I have an Evo R front lip for sale and some short side blades both are FPR and painted black if anyone is interested please hit me up.

Hey, I just saw this. If you are still around I'm in Lakewood and get off work at 10pm most of the time. Let me know if you still want to grab a beer.
