Hey guys,

Going to check out a 2014 auto gt86 110km/70k miles in ireland. After a bit of research my latest concern is replacing the coils and harness to that of the 2015+. This car will be used on a track and I'm not looking to deal with overheating misfiring coils lol.

I heard changing the ATF fluid is a pain so my thinking was having a dealer do the ATF fluid(with fluid I provide) along with plugs and the updated coils/harness.

So beyond that is there anything I should be looking/listening out for when I view the car ? Owner says the car is stock and the photos back that up.

Will be my first time viewing and driving one(outside of auto x many years ago haha). I have always been a MX5 guys so my knowledge on these cars is a bit limited.
