I saw your vid,

Don't worry about coilovers, you need better tires and camber. With one set of crash bolts I got 1.9 neg camber but I run it @ 1.5 for daily and it is much improved over stock. The stock suspension really isn't THAT bad... motor mounts would help that under steer a lot, short of an LSD. In fact if you did all three (tires,camber,MM) you would be so much further ahead than what a set of coilovers are going to do for you. Inflate your rear tires to get the rear to work with you when your at the track and play with both front and rear pressures to get the car to handle more neutral. Also ditch the passenger, easiest way to go faster is to lose the weight.

Its a great track, lots of fun. It's a bit more pricey than some other events but it's worth it. They do a good job managing all the groups.

Man that sure looks fun.I would like to do a couple track days once I get my Swift springs and Progress rsb.

I don't want to go crazy just have some fun pushing it on a safe roadcourse.Do you have stock brakes/rotors and how did they hold up?

i'm on stock brakes, they get hot after a few runs so its good to give em a cooldown before going out again. but they hold up well. You may want to check on ur brake fluid after and intense day at the track.

DOT4 fluid should work wonders for you.

Saw your Adam's video, that's a real tight track! Props for attacking it at night.
