Intake Brake Lines Hawk HP+ (F/R) Exhaust (Headers, front pipe, cat back) and a Tune for 91 Nothing done to the suspension yet, just started tracking this car this year after being away for some years so wanted to start slow and learn more about the car before going to far off the deep end like I did with my last car.

R -2 to -3 Currently I'm on -4F -2.5R, but I'm a filthy autocrosser, I still wear the outside edges with stiffer springs and front roll bar. Rears wear more evenly then fronts because MacPherson struts vs multi link. |

Hey Mike
I plan to install an oil cooler. Do you think it is worth it to get one that is not attached in the front bumper? (to avoid potential failure/rips due to possible off tracks) I have this in mind: https://avoturbo.com/brz-frs-86-fa20...il-cooler-kit/ Compared to an used Mishimoto that I can get much cheaper. |

I have a used Perrin (with setrab core, no the chinese cores) for sale. I would recommend a Jackson Racing or GReddy oil cooler. Both are in stock at CSG. |

On the other hand, could you please tell me what would be some appropriate next steps for my set up? Aparte from the oil cooler. The usage is roadtrips on weekends and occasional track days (6-8 per year). Not daily but frequent trips. Current set up: Code:

And what would be your suggestion for the alignment? I would not want to compromise too much the tire wear when driving milles in the roadtrips |

http://949racing.com/using-a-tire-py...49-Racing.aspx Get a proper Ecutek tune. You do not need the tuner to be local to get tuned. The vast majority of 86 tuning is done remotely. |

I have one last question though. I am worried about lubrication problems when using semi slick 245 and long right hand turns. I heard some people broke the engine because of the pump not reaching enough oil. How necessary is a Sump Baffle Plate then? |

I Have no opinion on Wayne's ROMs, as I've never seen a car with one running in person. |
