Hello All,
this will be my first track day in my new to me 2015 GT Non-PP 6spd, car is bone stock with only 13k miles on everything!
looking for whats the most important first mods you would get done to be track ready
i would assume tires would be number 1 as the factory all seasons would not be a good idea?
was looking into getting the RE-71R in a square setup of 265-40-19 for the factory 50th wheels
second plan was to get some good fluids changed into the car, motor and diff for sure, Trans fluid need changing? or coolant maybe?
currently have Motul 300v 5w30 motor oil to use
i know the rear diffs have issues with heating up on the track, don't want to add a cooler ATM, but thought changing to a nice fluid would be easy and good to get done , what does everyone recommend?
Third i was thinking maybe some track oriented pads (need some recommendations) since i don't have the PP calipers to help with braking duties and some RBF600 Fluid?
the event is a Starting line school put on by Tire rack and the event is in Heartland Park Topeka KS! so im pretty sure an instructor will be accompanying me for the first session or so to give me input and advice!
planned on keeping suspension bone stock as that's what everyone recommends to beginners, but figured some better brakes pads and good tires wouldn't hurt to help keep the car on track and be a little easier to drive and learn on!
if there are any other mods you all would recommend or certain mods that are more important then others please let me know! I'm new to this platform, i came from an AWD GSX eclipse so this is an completely different animal,
i know most guys say the Stock PP Is track capable, but didn't read much on the Non-pp Cars... so reasons for this specific post!
excited to get into my first track day and am open to any and all advice you veterans have to offer!
Cheers!
