How is the steering feel holding up throughout the runs? Any symptoms of numbness that some experience from the track?

Yes... Stock bars with Kartboy links..for the rear for now..Right now I don't feel the need for Bigger bars...as they are for Transition... the transition on my car is perfect..so I am going to run these for a while...... It took a day and half to get the car pretty much Dialed in... ...it feels like it did with the stock Suspension/alignment but way more planted now...and able to run with the best...more Firm but not out of control, Having had the car aligned 4 times...I finally got a good handle on what it needed to not skate around... 0 Toe in front.. and .1 toe in the rear on each side..Stock Bars...Balance is a driver thing but pretty much my rake is equal all around right now..and I won't comment on the KW settings.. I will say..if you use them..start with what they recommend and adjust from there...The car is amazing at speed...it steps out and just goes. I hopefully and going to test on some Dunlops here maybe for the next event..to see if I can pick up some speed..

Can you post what "threads" you are at on the coils? I'm ordering KWs and it would be cool to get a baseline for when I instal them. Pretty sure I am going to start with 245s because it's also my DD, but still thinking about 255s....

Thanks to Kartboy. Power Mod Number one is on the way. Prototype Kartboy BRZ Pulley. Loosing 4lbs of rotating mass should speed up the Revs a bit. Not huge but every little bit helps. I should be able to install this and notice a bit of pickup, I hope. . Other Powermods in the future include:
-Header with high-flow cat
-Lightweight exhaust, midpipe
-intake: Has to have proven results.
-Some type of engine management: Cobb or Open Source
-Tune (maybe E85 with some other mods)

when it is all said and done, All this should render about 200 WHP or so with about 180 Torque..

Right now an OS Giken Rear 1.5 way diff is planned, but I am not sure it needs it because I am not lifting the inside wheel...it is very planted.

You going to be doing the Nameless catted header? I haven't heard of any other company making a catted header besides them so far. (I had that header on my car for a few weeks. looooved it)

Rules say you can replace a 2 cat system with 1 high flo as long as its 6in from the Original....which would be the 'overpipe' according to Nameless's definition.. which its hard to put a cat in that section of exhuast..

Tainen.... Only game in town for now...have to see what else develops.. Nameless is at the top of my list so far tho..
