Two more track nights under my belt.
Understeer, and brakes are now the problem.
Added Turner solid rear subframe bushings, only have the back two installed, what a pain in the ass of a job. The car feels substantially tighter. Originally bought the m3 bushings, but after some installation problems, my tech said just get the real ones.....
I need to sort out the front end, I am killing the drivers side front tire. And these are good tires. I ordered the Apex EC-7 wheels during the group buy, and now I am waiting. I'm thinking about a more aggressive tire then the PSS once I get them.
Brakes.
Big brake kits cost almost as much as I paid for the car. That's insane
I'm thinking about ordering the Stainless steel brake lines and going with a track/ street pad.
Hawk is what I am leaning toward. I know they are not the favorite of this forum, but I want to enjoy driving the car to and from the track, and around town.
Dropped 3 seconds off of my best lap time at PBIR.
Down to 1:38, when I drive it right.
