More or less what I was going to say (minus the SC)...tires first. The stock brakes will out perform the stock tires with ease. Throw some good tires on the stock wheels, maybe some more aggressive brake pads if you plan on track days/auto-x, and a cat-back for some sound.


Drive it like that for a year and hone your driving skills. Next year, you'll have a better idea of where you want/need to make improvements.

Try seat time first. (Autocross, HPDE, etc)

Learn the classing rules for whatever sport(s) you want to run. As you pick up the pace with your driving, the modification path that's best for your skill set and chosen sports will come to you .

Best advise I have heard in a long time. Having rallied and built a few pro street cars I have to say once you know what you want to build for in terms of class/style the rest just sort of falls into place I my self am going to keep her stock enjoy warranty. In the meanwhile some cosmetics and such are really where I am going to mess around for the time being.
