What you have is more than enough to get on the track :) Frankly, I like to keep it reliable to maximize track time versus repair time, so I kept motor mods to bolt ons, but made a lot of other mods...

As long as it's not leaded racing gas, you can run it. It's basically a waste of money though. I've tried it on occasion at the track and couldn't tell any difference. I have the GIAC program, BTW....

There are other organizations as well like Nasa (nasaproracing.com). Look around and find one you are comfortable with. I usually go with speedventures.com, but they are mainly So California....

FWIW, Option 2 does work albeit barely. I passed 2 smog tests with that set up. The second time failed a few times first, but it was for other reasons (bad o2 sensor and MAF). Worst case, you can...

I would go with 17s. I don't know if you already have an S, but in case you want to upgrade your brakes, you'll likely need at least 17s. Tire choices and availability for r-compounds will be better...

Truly awful in the rain when the tread is worn, which is also when they also work well on the track. So either you get rid of them prematurely (as far as track performance is concerned) or you risk...

Sorry to be a skeptic, but I don't see how the balance tube would eliminate the drone, especially with straight through mufflers. I had a GHL exhaust which also has a balance tube and it droned quite...

Get 18" winters ;) Anyway, for the street, your tires are the biggest inhibitors for better stopping, not the brakes and certainly not the rotors. On the track where consistently repeatable stopping...

I have a 6-pt cage, but I kept all the airbags in my car. I figure since I drive it on the street, mainly back and forth from the track, it's added precaution when I don't have my harnesses on and...

For what they cost, you might as go all the way and get a proper BBK. It would be a better bang for the buck. Frankly, I use stock rotors and calipers with track pads and ATE fluid and I've never had...

I ran a headers similar to the design used by the cheap chinese headers on ebay with stock rear cats and passed smog twice. The second time, it was a PITA as my car kept throwing codes. I never...

I doubt you'll notice the difference in Zimmerman rotors and Textar pads, since they are the OEM suppliers.

As for the rotor paint, I believe spray caliper paint or high temp spray paint from...

Don't forget to check the oil cap. It might be the vacuum leak. Seriously, it may just be loose.

But based on your description, (at least on my S) there is a thin tube that goes from the intake...

I can only speak for the S since that is what I have, but on the street the biggest improvement to braking will be tires. The stock brakes are more than adequate to bring you to a stop and will...

Are you trying to slip the belt over one of the pulleys? If so, try sliding it over one of the idler pulleys (the pulleys without the ridges). I found sliding it under the one on the top left next to...

I have the GT3 ducts. It fit without modifications and it's never dragged on my lowered car. So far the brakes have not boiled, but they didn't do it before either. However, for $20, it was a no...

In the 4 years I had headers, I never got a CEL until recently and it turned out to be an O2 sensor and MAF problem. Once replaced, the CELs went away.
