[QUOTE="darreng505, post: 13235168, member: 146023"] 1. If you have $9,000 lying around get yourself the full grand-am 15" brake system (race brembos up front, [i]not the cheesy GT500 brembo 6pots[/i], and 15" gt500 rotors+bracket in back) including brake booster ($3k). Inquire at Capaldi Racing. This is the system I'm saving for. It's the be all, end all. Probably can get 1.0-1.4 g's of braking depending on tire. Don't fall for the "street brakes" out there bragging 6 pistons. No good. Any caliper that is painted a pretty glossy color is probably not a race caliper. Beware. 2. Then drop another $1800 on toyo RS1 full competition slicks (square). I have a set being mounted this week. It's basically an F1 tire! lol You need to add G's of traction to catch a GTR on street tires. 3. Then, lower the motor (front center of gravity) 1/2" with the new BMR k-member, also reducing a bunch of weight. (I'm also having this done this week). 4. Listen to twistedneck. Good advice there. 5. Also listen to Deranged2013, PAS is a great shop and they will be doing my race tear-down conversion. Another $10k. Ask for Kevin. 6. Get some Motul 660 Once you've done all that check beck here for next steps....:lol: [/QUOTE]
