I am an avid track junky and instructor, and the car now had 120 track days under its belt
I must say - what a monster - no serious issues; just wear and tear
Things I have done
AST 5300 triple adjustable suspension - sick
8 sets of endurance race pads - Carbotech RP2's on Stoptech ST60's - unreal feel
8 sets of R-Comp tires - 285/35r18 Square - RA1's are my favorite so far - maybe Hoosiers next year
Evolution Racewerks Charge Pipe and Blowoff valve - to lighten the load on the turbo when lifting - and it keeps the engine cooler
Evolution Racewerks competition intercooler - obvious
Evolution Racewerks competition double oil cooler - needed
Stock Oil Cooler bypass mod - huge improvement for cooling
PWR Custom Aluiminum Radiator - also important for track abuse as these cars run real hot
Full M3 and 1M control arms with ALL solid bushings - even the front lower control arm at the subframe - weird feel on the street but RACE CAR
Yeah that's about it - the key to my build was reliability - so I have not changed the tranny, clutch, diff - still have the stock clutch with 52k miles - yeah baby
Maybe a full cage over the winter months
Pictures later in the day when I have better interent
