We are insanely lucky here with tax as both of them isn't much difference between the two.
Definitely looking more at a LCI OG which would give me a bit more budget for a brake upgrade. Theres an AP kit here that you can get which uses lightly used BTCC rotors which are much cheaper than most other replacement rotors.
Although I'm considering just trying RSL29's with a ducting kit, but I do wonder if the factory setup will still be enough on track.

IDK why I wasn't really pressed about finding an LCI... I did get a 2017 but it just missed the cut off lol. I kinda like that the gauges light up orange so I am happy plus the PO swapped over to the LED tail lights. LED headlights would have been great but oh well mine doesn't even have heated seats but at least they are power haha
Anyway I been on track with mine already and no issues with the brakes. I hear mixed things about them.... If you're looking to hammer on the car for 20+ mins they might not hold up. I have a brake cooling kit I need to install and I am hoping that will be the only upgrade I need for the brakes.
They do sell better 2 piece rotors that should cool better than the OEM ones. If I can get 5-7 laps I will be happy otherwise I guess I need to shop around for a AP kit
here is my build thread btw
