Minimal essential mods to tracked GT3/RS
OK, you can go nuts (Trackrat ) and make the car materially better and faster.
I on the other hand bought the RS because I like to leave the car as stock as possible and enhance warranty chances. My essential enhancements are only aimed at safety, durability and lowering operating cost. Essential to me: - SRF brake fluid and endurance pads. - Grippier pedals for better heel n toe. More so if you have big feet. - Roll bar and 6 point seat belts 9Both seats!) for safety and track comfort. Don't forget Hans belts and Hans device. - Full wrap or you will have to repaint eventually - Studs in caliper, or you will eventually strip out an upright. - Cup splitter, they are cheaper and more flexible - Gurney flap. OK, this is questionable but it balances out CUP lip. - CUP LSD, the car needs it to be more stable and maybe wishful thinking but it might keep transmission temps down. - CUP rear toe arms, hold better allignment, saves on tires. - Slotted front rotors, will pay back in nextended life over OEM cross drilled ones. - Sharky bypass final exhaust if you have an RS because the OEM ones burn out in only a few track days and I doubt they keep replacing them 3x a year. - Brake caliper piston puck holder, or you'll spend ours fishing the pucks out of your rotors. I think that's it. Did I forget something?
