Tracking cost money. So make sure you want and can make the investment. Also consider repair cost if any thing goes wrong. I don't like to say there a such thing as a light track day. You will go fast, you will brake harder and do this repeatly for several session in a day. Protect yourself and your investment.

Brakes on the Z get hot. So SS lines, good pads(basically track pads), and fluid is a must in my book. Try not to look at it any other way except for to buy even better parts. I only state this cause I care and worry about people who track.
Some other members said the ss lines didn't improve performance or safety and were mainly a feel thing. Are you saying otherwise? Just asking because I really don't know, not challenging you or anything.
