Hi all I'm in the process of purchasing a new to me 2013 Fr-s with 29000 miles. Next week it goes for ppi with compression/leekdown then I'm on it. I'm new to the track and autocross but started about a month ago with drivers skill and autocross in my 2002 996 turbo.
At my last and 1st autocross there were a number of 100000 dollar plus porsches (gt4,gt3,gt3rs and boxster spiders and your usual carerra s and caymans.). Out of all those cars the 4 fastest times were driven by an experienced driver in a well set up brz with no major engine mods.
I knew then that I had to have one!!!!
My 1st autocross day I ran 20th in a field of 65 and my last "fun run" time would have placed me 11th.
My turbo while a joy to drive is heavy and understeer happy not to mention very expensive to maintain
.
Anyway here's what I found with the list of most mods. Let me know what you all think. The owner is a very accomplished track guy and routinely bests the fastest cars at my "soon to be" home track The Ridge Motorsports in shelton wa.
I'm so excited and hope that these forums are as welcoming and as helpful as Rennlist and 6speed have been for me in the porsche community (although I'm sure it will be).
Her is the list of current mods. Any suggestions on future would be great
Car is very clean, no accident or damage. It's always been service by Michaels Toyota in Bellevue.
