wouldn't that be nice?

For the first time in nearly 4 years of corporate environment, I actually had a gift from my employer that I really appreciated. 25 dollar gift card and a day of paid time off.

nice what you going to go with, you can just upgrade your current set up for now brotha... then later find the weaknesses of the car and improve those after...


depending on your driving the advans should last a bit but after theyre gone i would probably move to Toyo R888(if they have the size) or RA1 ...

Honestly, the best I'll probably be able to do for now is the Stoptech Stage 2 Upgrade Kit and maybe have street pads and track pads. I'll talk to Jay first though and see what he can put together. If its possible I could always go bbk up front and just do a rotor and bad upgrade on the rears until I can afford to go bbk on the rears. I've got time though since I guess I probably won't get to track the car until February now that Tadashi wants it again in January.

Nice. Yeah, lets make these track days happen for real. I'll need a support crew to help me get my wheels to the track since I don't think I can fit them in the Z and I don't want to drive on the R compounds all the way there.

If you end up getting StopTech Stage 2 make sure you don't get the Axxis Ultimate pads. They're good for mild autocrossing but definitely not for track use.
Get some Nismo R-Tune pads or Project Mu.
