Perfect! Now that we have a general idea of where you stand, I agree that its time to improve the car.

I'd suggest (as others have) starting with camber (adj LCA), tires (NT-01), and brake pads (EBC Yellow or similar race/street pad). Those will make the biggest difference for the $$ invested.

If you really want to do something about the shocks, springs, and sways, then M030. Otherwise, they can wait because these are fairly big ticket items.

Also, you'll have to make some hard decisions about street drivability and comfort in regards to a racing or sport seat and harnesses vs the stock seats and seatbelts. A sport/racing seat with a 6pt harness will help keep you in the seat about a million times better than the stock seat and seatbelt, but it comes at a cost.

Its a slippery slope...
