RTR Game On!

Let the build begin! Super Blue, Pads, Perrin Cat Back, Perrin drop in filter and crash bolts ordered today! Thanks to Strano Performance Parts for letting me grab all of it but the bolts from the same spot!

I'll grab the Star Specs when I get home at the end of the month. Not quite sure which size I'm going with. It will sort.

Can not wait to start running this car!

I'd hold off on tires until the spring. The new starspecs should be better.

What wheel?

Has the new star specs' release date been confirmed?

Went with the DS2500 Ferodo's. Strano had good things to say, so I went that way. I'll probably go with the 225's on the stock wheels until the Z2 hits and then grab wheels and new tires.

Can not wait to get the new goodies on the car. After the track day, I am in serious need of more NOISE! A little shot of power won't be a bad thing either! : )
