so whats it like on the track

Plenty of power down the straights but hard to pull up on standard brakes when hot (that's why I've changed them over).

Not as nimble as a rex or GTR through the turns, but I was running street tyres. Standard suspension was surprisingly good, but I

am waiting for Wholesale suspensions FG coilover to be released (they are still fine tuning).

ZF overheated on a mild day (temp range 11c to 19c). I'm assuming too much heat as on boost 80-90% of the time.

Oh.. and it was the Mrs on the track in these pics.

Nice car. Need to get yourself a trans and engine oil cooler. Mine went well at Wakefield with these.

Nice choice of brakes, I have the same.

What are your next round of mods?

Getting a 2x2.5" turbo back exhaust, but setting the cat aside until closer to out of warranty (2011).

When cat goes on so do some new injectors, intercooler & Custom tune.

And to keep the mrs happy, I just replaced the four interior light bulbs with pure white smd's and the key barrel light with a blue led. Gives a cooler classier look. Tossing up whether to do HID's. But the legality worries me. But I'd like to have them as I do the Sydney-Snowies suicide run every other Friday & Sunday night in Winter.
