Hey all,

Im at the point where I really don't know where I should go as far as handling and chassis mods to the car are concerned as the car is being tracked more frequently (has seen numerous skidpans and tuning arvos now) and will eventually see Barbagallo + Collie (studying @ Uni has done nothing to affect the addiction).

Also note that I will at some point be going back to the stock 17" wheels (painted gloss black)...this will upset Kym no doubt but I want to improve my own driving ability along with the car.

Below is what is currently on the car as well as a little list of what may be happening closer to the end of the year (make corrections as necessary if something should or shouldn't be on that to do list, i.e. trailing arms/lateral links/ chassis-braces).

Currently on car:
Cusco zero2e coilovers
Cusco strut braces (front & rear)
Whiteline camber bolts
Whiteline anti-lift kit
Whiteline roll centre kit
Whiteline subframe lock kit
Whiteline steering rack and pinion mount kit
Whiteline 22mm adjustable sway bars (front & rear)
Whiteline extra heavy duty sway bar links (front & rear)
Kuhmo Ecsta XS KU36 tyres (235/40/18)
DBA 4000 slotted series rotors (front)
Ferodo DS2500 pads (front)
Cusco brake cylinder stopper
Brembo Sport Evo 500++ brake fluid
APP braided lines (front & rear)
Rear seat removed (can't help it...and I love the extra noise)
Spare tyre removed
Velo Clubman 4pt-harness (worth every penny)

Current alignment settings (setup for street commuting)

Front: -2.0deg camber, 0 deg toe
Rear: -1.5deg camber, 1.0 deg toe in

What I have planned (long term)
Lots more seat time!!
Yokohama Advan Neova AD08 tyres (215/45/R17)
Whiteline diff - front lock support kit
Whiteline heavy duty rear sway bar mount
Whiteline castor correction bushes (additional castor to ALK)
S-Technic pitchstop mount
Group N transmission mounts
Group N engine mounts
DBA 5000 rotors (front)
DBA 4000 rotors (rear)
Ferodo DS3000 pads (front)
QFM A1RM pads (rear)
Endless RF650 fluid
APR carbon fibre front splitter (overkill?) <--- will replace Ultrex CF lip


Quick notes:

1. engine/power mods out of the question?
2. why not get an STI?

Answers

1. not interested in going quicker in a straight line...
2. my folks and I sacrificed a lot to afford the car 4 years ago, this car isn't going anywhere anytime soon (sentimental).

Thanks,
