STARS: 17
Got all the new control arms, trailing arm, sways and springs installed. Got the camber at -2.5 in the front and -2.0 in the rear. Hopefully I can shave another second or two off my laps! The camber adjustments also gave me about 5 more millimeters to play with when I order some wheels/tires for the track.

-2 seems a bit much for the rear, I’ll be interested to see how you report corner exit under power feeling. Most I would run would be about -1.5, but I don’t know what he camber curve looks like through travel.

It is, most guys do 1.5. The rear is fully on-car adjustable so I figured I’d make a big swing. Might have issues putting the power down out of the corner but a lot of the corners at the track are flat and there’s a couple high speed corners where I think I’ll benefit. I’ll have a temp gauge handy to see how it’s working out.

Beaut. I like daily driving mine, but I’d love to have a HP monster to track.

I’m pretty sure that violates a bunch of Oppo Rules.
But seriously, that is one gorgeous machine. I love everything about it, the wheels, the stance, the spoiler. It’s amazing. I keep having this internal debate about whether, when the time is right, do I buy a new 6th Gen and do it up, or keep driving an economy car and buy a 3rd Gen (childhood dream car) and make it my own.

Car looks great! Love the wicker on the spoiler. Are the wheels Forgestars? Make sure you check them for cracks after each track day.

I never wanted one until the 6th gen, lol.

Depends on when you’re ready to buy. The 6th gens have dipped into prices where you feel crazy not to get one.

Yeah they are. They changed their construction awhile ago so I’m not too worried.

I’ve considered that or an SS. It could still be on the table, i’m not ready to buy anything probably for a year.

This is true. I’m still probably a year off from buying anything though, unless something tragic happens to the Snuze.

That car looks gorgeous. really tasteful mods. Is that spoiler / gurney flap custom?

The spoiler is by ACS and the wicker bill was made for this spoiler by a company called ZL1 add ons. Weird name, I know.
