No build thread yet. I probably wouldn't bump the power to go to TT3, but do a lot of weight reduction. My minimum competition weight to stay in TTB is 3000lbs so I have a lot of weight I can cut.

And for the record, I'm all about function myself. Hopefully I'll have an S2K again by the end of this year.
I've only had one weekend NOT at the track this year.

You may need to seek help for that.

I used to think I could figure things out on my own and navigate the track world with ease... Naive.

CSG has time and again delivered on what they state as fact, performance/track wise. These guys have been at this for a while and they live and breathe tracking. Every part or consumable I buy now goes through CSG approval. They are a valuable resource. I've had many parts fail due to the rigors of tracking, but none of the parts CSG had recommended have skipped a beat.

They are always willing to advise and help you improve. I really appreciate mike's freebie coaching sessions he gives out randomly every once in a while. Just riding along with him teaches you so much, eye opening really.

Over 9000 Thumbs up!

My experience so far with CSG, for what it's worth

Communication with David has been clear and very quick (considering time zone differences). I knew my order was going to take a while to arrive, and was further delayed to no fault of CSG (sigh, LA port strike), but every request has been answered quickly and concisely.

Order will be here tomorrow, and judging from how late UPS received the shipment on Monday, CSG made every extra effort to get everything out in a timely fashion. Much appreciated!

Yeah, I saw the shipping weight of each... 21 lbs. IIRC, that's what the stockers are naked.

I just spoke with David at CSG regarding the tranny/diff Track fluid package and happily ordered. He was extremely knowledgeable and helped guide me to the right setup based on my driving style and routine. You can expect custom-tailored service from the folks over there regardless of product inquiry.

I'll definitely be ordering more in the future from CSG based on my experience with David.

Solid recommendation @Pat for @CounterSpace Garage to assist me.

Ordered a set of Winmax W2's from David. After the research I did, and questions I asked, I decided these would best fit what I use my car for. That and a pleasant experience before with Mike on my KW V3's that I got for a killer deal and are super comfortable in all situations, led me back to doing business with CSG. Huge contributors with a wealth of information.

Now I'm just waiting for Mike to talk me into a JRSC later....

The crew at CSG delivers again! I was trying new tires at the track last weekend, and it became very obvious that I needed more camber. I'm currently on stock suspension with camber bolts, and won't be doing coilovers for a while, so I needed a set of camber plates. I ordered a set from CSG, and 2 days later, they're on my doorstep. Installed the camber plates yesterday, got my car aligned today, and I'm ready for the next track day this weekend. Thanks, guys!

They've also been very helpful in providing valuable advice to make the car fast and reliable on the track, not just to sell parts to move volume. On a few occasions, they've even told me not to buy something, even though I was ready to buy the part from them. These guys really know their stuff!

I just received all of the parts for my order from the guys at CSG to built my SCCA T4 FR-S.


I don't know that they need more positive feedback, but I particularly liked how David talked me out of buying certain parts ( and then talked me into another) but these guys do not just want to generate revenue, they truly have your best interests in mind.


Very good advance including contacting Manufacturer for assistance and clarifications


thanks @CSG David
