I second that ^

Diff 1.5 or 2 way. Use crown wheel & pinion gearing suited to the particular engine you're going to run

Tyres

Radiator + air guides

Brake pads/fluid/lines + overhaul calipers

Clutch + braided line. Lightweight flywheel.

Adjustable suspension links front + rear

Coilovers front + rear

Pay to have someone setup your suspension properly if you don't know how / want to get running sooner

ROPS

Seat + harness

In-car camera for use as a review/training aid

Spend time running it like that and learn to drive with stock power level for a season or two. Add up the costs above, IMO those are the things required for reliable, safe track running. If this is your first track car, you do not want/need 300rwkw. Plenty of fun to be had <150rwkw

Personally I would be doing these:

- The usual mods (exhaust, intercooler, pod or panel filter (your choice).

- Oil cooler

- Good tune

- Coil overs

- Sway bars

- Strut brace

- Decent tyres

- Brakes (rotors, pads, oils, braided lines etc)

Do a track day with these mods and then see how you are going.

Sell it and buy an Evo.

Fluffy dices.

[ISC-Performance]

Suspension + Brakes before you do any power mods. Get used to the car first and then when your comftable increase the KW. Safety mods also would be top of the list, weld in cage, decent seat, harness etc.

buy one done!

[The Bogan]

Suspension, brakes, seat/s, harness/s, tyres, oil cooler, a real catch can, ROPS, replace all bushes, 1.5, full service on all the oils and fluids, to start with.

Dont overboost it and dont run it on the limiter

Is it going on a trailer or stay regoed ?

Remove all unneeded fat, carpet, deadener, A/C, trims.

Is the car stock or modified ?

Money to burn ? carbon everything, full strip rebuild, aero, dash, flashing lights and bells and also whistles, see the superlap site for details

Look at existing 32s that are going fast at the local track here ie. sub 1:15 kind of lap times - and learn from them.

Dont build a christmas tree, they are rarely fast.

[Madaz]

but they look pretty

[rb20-into-mr30=]

bugger all that! do what i'm doing and chuck an ls1 in your 32.

much cheaper, lighter, just as powerful and you can be a trend setter, not a follower.

besides that how much fun can you have with instant torque?

[scandyflick]

Putting an LSx in anything makes you a trend setter now?

You must be new here.
