PBOC (and me) @ Homestead next month....

G'day lads!

Next month I'm doing my 3rd track day in the FRS, this time at Homestead.
1st TD - Monticello Motor Club, cold damp and totally stock
2nd TD - Sebring w/PBOC, DBA rotors, hawk pads & SRF fluid

So I've learnt the car and time to get it better. I'm planning to run Dunlop Direzza II's on the stock rims, maybe a better pad (suggestions?) but need your suggestions and advice on a suspension direction for a daily driven car, thank god Florida is flat and smooth unlike NY :p

I've looked on eBay, Tire Rack and this site and there are so many options that I'm confused which is best for this car. I'm a pretty good driver as I've done track days for years back in the motherland but it was in an over powered FWD.

Do I just put in bars? Which brand? Springs? Dampers? I appreciate the discussion.

Cheers, Jason.
