For 2014 I'd like to hopefully get 8-10 events under my belt at various NE tracks, and possibly move into TA for 2015. The car is garaged for the winter at a friend's place in NJ so while it's down I want to just get it ready for a year of hard driving.

Car currently makes 335whp tuned @ AMS in 2009, with all normal bolts ons. Upper & Lower ICP, megan 02, TBE, test pipe, Perrin DP, ETS Intake, AMS FMIC, Comp Stage II clutch

Just did the brake flush before last event

Has 72k on the odo

I'm going to pay someone I think to do the full 60k service, as I never did it, which seems to include all pulleys belts, and water pump. I'd consider doing it myself, but my buddies garage is sort of cramped and I got a quote of $350 for the labor of installing all of that good stuff, which might be worth it.

Also plan on;

Whiteline Roll Center kit, which seems like will actually help
Forge Brake Duct Kit as I've felt brake fade so know how helpful this is

But what else would be good to take care of? I've taken good care of the motor for the past five years, and would love to not blow it up this year (I know it's a possibility). So open to any feedback and suggestions as to good steps to take.



thanks ya'll!

 

crickets.

 

What brake pads are you using on the track?

Some things that come to mind:
- Check alignment
- Brake bleeding (even though you did a flush this year)

Don't forget fresh drivetrain fluids (tranny, diff, transfer case).

 

Don't forget about the plugs. It's the small things we over look.

 

Pull your injectors and check/clean them if needed, and change your oil for each event. Always double check your lug nuts.

 

yeah the brake flush was right before the last event i did in October, oil always. Will be changing all drivetrain fluids this winter along with the 60k service. Did spark plugs this summer.

Alignment will be good to have.
