While it may still be on there, it is no longer functional.

Nice vids all the way around!

I've been doing some beginning autocrossing, but my first track day at Thunderhill will be October 2nd. By the end of this week, I'll have the following suspension mods on my '04 wagon:

KYB AGX's with Prodrives & STI Topmounts, Whiteline ALK, Whiteline Steering Rack Bushings, Whiteline ARSB with mounts and endlinks. Running on Falken Azeni 215/45ZR17's with Rota Tarmac II's.

In order to have the most fun at the track, anything else I should be considering? (not that I can afford it after all the previously mentioned stuff) I know that the most important thing is to learn some new driving skills and have some fun.

Thanks!

Which Falkens? Hopefully RT615s, but I don't know if they are available in that size yet. You might as well pick up a helmet of your own. Renting at Thunder Hill is kind of expensive.

Yup, need a helmet for both auto-x and T-Hill. Any place in Sactown that sells helmets that you can recommend? Or, a good internet vendor? Thanks!

I picked up a set of RA1 in 235/40-17 with a set of 8" wide rims. All from Subydude with 1 track day and a couple hundred street miles. So far they have lasted me 3 track days this year and maybe have 2 or 3 more days on them I would guess.

Then last weekend I picked up another used set of RA1's in the same size for $500 bucks that has about 800 street miles. The guy had them on his SRT-4 with a set of Enkei's. I guess he had to sell the car and now wants to get a used WRX, but he just needed the money at this point so he parted out the SRT-4. I found the guy on craigslist of all places.

Have you done any brake upgrades (i.e. pads, lines, fluid)?
