Great find. Thanks! It's on my watch later list.

I watched this yesterday. Enjoyed the review, I thought he definitely had his bias against the car but overall found it quite pleasant to drive.

Does anyone know if the euro spec cars like this have the performance package? Because I know this car w/ PP will run with any similarly priced european cars on the track

Unfortunately it's one of the great unknown questions?

We seem to have 'some' performance package parts, but hard to say which are the same as the US counterparts?

For example:

• Strut-tower Brace - NOPE
• Larger Radiator - YES
• Unique Chassis Tuning - YES - BUT MAY NOT BE THE SAME AS US
• Upsized Rear Sway Bar - UNKNOWN, BUT LIKELY
• Heavy-Duty Front Springs - UNKNOWN, BUT LIKELY
• K-Brace - YES
• Brembo™ 6-Piston Front Brake Calipers with Larger Rotors - YES
• 19 X 9-inch (F) 19” X9.5” (R)Ebony Black-Painted Aluminum Wheels (Summer Tires Only) - YES
• Unique Stability Control, EPAS & ABS Tuning - MAYBE
• 3.73 TORSEN® Rear Axle - WE GET A 3.55:1 LSD, BUT DON'T KNOW IF TORSEN OR VISCOUS
• Gauge Pack (Oil Pressure and Vacuum) - NOPE
• Spoiler Delete - YES

I've no idea whether the dampers/spring rates are the same. In fact this is something I'm trying to find out at the moment as I'm about to order the Ford Racing FR3 track dampers to go with a set of M-5300-Y progressive track springs.

What I can tell you, for UK cars at least, is that for a stock GT:

Springs are FR3C-5310-JD
Front struts are FR3C 18045 KF
Rear Dampers are FR3C 18W002

Does anyone know how this compares to the part no's of the US Performance Pack?

U.K. Is track lok clutch pack diff with 3.55 ratio and US PP is Torsen with 3.73 ratio.

Thanks for the detailed response. Seems as though they tried to give the parts they felt would handle the UK roads the best so maybe they understandably left out small aspects of the PP.
