well, with your mod list you are going to be spending close to that 60K mark anyway (car + overpriced, low gain mods)

how about posting up AFTER you have bought the parts and installed them? Until then, it is just big talk.

Nothing at all , and the best reason NOT to put a body kit on a Z.
Tanabe Y pipe will work on the Hr , but there are a lot better ones out there.
I would also scrap the Endless brake idea, and get equal brakes at a much cheaper price.
Diff , you would want a 1.5 for the roadcourse.

I'm no track expert but I can say without a shadow of a doubt that seats, harness and a cage are not just safety-related mods. And knowing your taste for name brand items, don't these mods put you well over your price target?
