5. Sticky tires (71R, A052, rt660)
6. Good suspension (949 Xidas, RCE T2) + proper track alignment
7. BBK + track pads
8. E85 + good header (Ace, JDL 4-2-1, PTuning EL) + good tune
9. Weight reduction
10. Driver mod / TT / W2W
Good luck and be safe.

100% agree! And I really appreciate all the pointers! Im trying to do a track day in the near future at thunder hill but it gets hard since its about a 4 hour drive and thats our closest track

hence why i take to the mountains but then I constantly have to worry about not endangering the public and being reckless. but yes definitely first on my list to do next is going to be big brakes im thinking project mu but i know the ap racing kit is a very well built kit also, thankfully the KW's do the job for now but I definitely need to aim to reduce the unsprung weight, which i believe the SPL arms do a good job at that. along with lighter wheels, these works came on the car when I got it and because of covid theres a huge delay on parts so I chose to just keep them for now, and down the line move up to a much lighter setup.
What would you reccomend as far as weight reduction? This car is actually my daily so Im not sure how tolerable a full gutting would be haha
