The dream of having a P-Car is now a reality, in the form of a 986 Boxster.
It's a 2001 with 60K miles.
I like to understand what are the main items that need attention to make the car reliable on the track.
The goal for now is not pure speed, but to log track time reliably.
I've done some of the basics at the 61k mark:
- Water pump and lower temp thermostat
- Fuel filter
- Serpentine belt
- Spark plugs
- Ceramic IMS Bearing
- Clutch (OEM Sachs)
Car came with an EVO High flow intake. Car is running on Mutul 8100 oil.
Camber has been maxed out at -.09 in the front. Rears are at -1.5
Down the line I'd like to have PSS9s coils and GT3 Front Lower control arms (I hate seeing the tires' outer shoulders go to waste)
### TO BE ADDRESSED ###
- Power steering cooler
I had PS fluid overflow into my garage floor. Also PS feels/sounds weird after the AutoX events I've done so far (4).
I got the inline cooler and it will go in this week.
- Brake Pads
I'm considering Hawk HP+ as a cost-saving option. I've used them on the track in the past and thought they were satisfactory.
- Brake Rotors
I'm thinking of Centric Plain for now
What else is advised??
Brake cooling gizmos? AOS solutions? Oil temp/press monitoring?
Looking forward to the input of you track junkies!
