Any particular reason for change? Esthetically I liked the other wheels better.

run a wider wheel to be able to expand to a proper 255 down the road.

SuperPro bushing and etc install tonight.
-Front Roll Center Kit
-Front LCA Bushing
-Steering Rack Bushings (Whiteline ones were 10 years old)
-Rear Carrier Inserts
-Was going to do the front sway bushings but they were not the right versions.

Also lowered the car about half an inch. Alignment will be tomorrow.
New shop name after Jason took over. Soon to be all of us at a track day hopefully.

Alignment done today and washed the car.

-3.0 Front
-2.0 Rear
0 Toe all around

My front camber plates are maxed out and bolts are too.
The car feels more crisp with all of the new Superpro items and the alignment, will be giving feedback after I push the car a bit on the suspension bits and tires.
Rear clearance is almost perfecto.
Barely clear my driveway with the drop but damn today is a WET WEDNESDAY!

Brake job on the car in preparation for NCRC. Fluids flushed with some more Motul and front DBA rotors replaced with some Stoptech Slotted.



Boredom struck and wheels were coated with some 3M wax to prevent as much brake dust as possible from caking on like they did to the finalspeeds.


Alignment on the car. With the rear subframe lock down bolts installed the subframe shifted and needed to be rechecked. Went on a drive Sunday and found that the tires still rolled slightly onto the side so an increase in camber was called for. The rear was increased in proportion. Toe in rear originally was 0.0 but shifted when the front was touched. One of the ABS sensors was bumped in the process and had to be replaced today.




Polished the entire car out. The replacement door and the wingless trunk had some blemishes and needed a good buff. We will see in the sun tomorrow but the deep scratches are no longer in existence which is a plus. Then we cut some vinyl numbers for Sunday. Logged the car on the way home to have Travis give a good look over it!

So if you haven't seen my other thread my header cracked at the collector. Not even at the weld. Picked up an EL header from Travis yesterday afternoon, came back to the shop and threw it on along with removing the oil cooler for the time being since the sandwich adapter hits the header. Also rotated the tires. Someone came through and I traded to a Cobb turboback for a bit of lower noise. Going back to Travis for an update within the next month.

As an update, I picked up a Perrin Big Tube header. Also when everything was off, I traded another member for a cobb turboback for mine that was pieced together.



Shot from Sunday, turn 11, thunderhill.

Nice shot!

I keep forgetting to ask...track tech inspections don't have issues with your 100% windshield tint (or whatever it actually is...I just remember it being dark as hell )?
