Functional, Double Duty Daily/HPDE with a BUDGET

Could only manage a 1:28 with my buddy in the car, 1s slower than my PB ��, however seat time is more important than lap time. I was staying calm and keep my driving smooth, tighten up my line and go wider on the exit to carry more speed. Overall the car performed extremely balance, however I've put 20k KM, 5 track day, 4 autocross event on these tires, They lose a good amount of grip and overheat easily

No new mod - too busy driving!!!!!

photo from my last autocross event. I did poorly! came in 7th in my class with a 57s, fastest in class was 52s set by a Miata of course, he is a very good driver.

I'm gonna blame it on the tire for being slow...because that's what racer do

vid of my fastest clean lap, 56s with 1 cone penalty



PS: JDL UEL Header + OFT might be up for sale, I want to go back to stock and use the money for some nice tire.

Being my daily as well as a fun track/autocross car,

I driven the car on a 120km daily commute for work, so 200 TW extreme performance is not a great idea for the car.

I picked up another set of wheel a couple of day ago, these will be my dedicated HPDE wheel and tires.

to keep within budget, because I bough new wheel and tire. my header + OFT will be taken off sometime next week, and will be up for sale

its a JDL UEL Catless Header

So several months ago I bough a set of HKS Hypermax IV SP coilovers.

my plan was to go for a more grip and hardcore set up next season, with coilovers, 245s Xtreme Performance tires, -3 camber up front.

to price out my budget these are the parts that I need to order achieve the set up I want:
-Rear LCA
-New Alignment
-245s RE71R/RS4s/AD08R

however I don't really want to spend any more money on my car now or in the future, I just want to keep the current simple set up i already have and spend a little money on tires/brakes and maintenance. And get alot more seat time on track/autocross.

So I have put the HKS Coilovers up for sale, along with my JDL UEL Header, and OFT.

I have a sale post up in Canada Classified if anyone interested. I might be able to ship the coilovers if you're not local.

The header will be off the car on Thursday and I'm going back to stock. I'm not one of those people who bough this car in the first place and expecting a shit load of HP or Tq, nor do I try to street race people at every traffic light. I was never disappointed in the HP of the FRS.

Im sure i will enjoy the car as much as i am now with or without the header and a tune.

PITL Autocross event #6

First time running RE71R, I was still learning the tire and it limits. they are a blast to drive on. so predictable and controllable at the limit
