Default New member and owner!

Just picked up an 03 350 Touring that has been prepped lightly for track.

Wanted to say hi to y'all before I start posting questions to fix some of the issues the car I bought has

Means that interior is still intact. Minor suspension upgrades, like springs, sway bars and camber arms. Wheel + tire combo and upgraded brake pads.

To me that is pretty much a minor upgrade to make the vehicle a little more track worthy than a stock car. Not that hard to get?

Perhaps if started with that, your introduction would have been less bumpy. Welcome.

Welcome to the forum, their is good and bad but you can find entertainment in every thread, don't take anything too personal and one suggestion would be leaving out the not that hard to get next time, most would not consider brake pads and camber arms lightly prepped for the track I would say you found yourself a good mostly unmolested car.

If you still have ac and leather seats its not lightly prepped for the track

It's not a track car until you've got a quick-release hub on the steering wheel. And, maybe a purple-anodized billet aluminum tow-hook sticking out the nose.

Here is a quick picture of the car I shot today.

So far, I've changed the seats that the car came with. Had NRG 300 series seats, sold those and stole the Sparco Pro ADV from my racecar to be able to drive the 350 around for now.

I'm not sure either, the old owner put that on. If I decide that I want a wing, that one is coming off and either an APR or a Voltex one will go on there.
