Little update:

I have 20mm rear spacers, 15mm front spacers, hotchkis swaybars and a stillen pulley to install. All should be on by next week.

I ordered Stock size Nitto NT05's to replace my RE050As, should be here in a few days.

Pictures / videos coming of everything.

I'm curious how the car will handle with spacers on a track. I'm tempted to go that route because I like the stock wheels (and would prefer to spend wheel money elsewhere), but the factory offsets drive me slightly nuts. I've just been worried about screwing with the handling...

it all depends one which spacers you go with. I went with the 15mm for the fronts and the 20mm for the rears. My car is pretty low (read very low) but I run a lot of -camber so I should be OK.

Happy, no one should be happy with an uprev or a cobb tune right now considering you cant tune timing yet. I was surprised how easy and quick the uprev software is though. I will have an uprev license for sale when the Stillen SC comes out since that comes with it's own tune.

Slightly wider track in the rear will cause a little understeer, however my car is fairly tail happy right now and I'm adding swaybars. It should all even out in the end. Once I got the balance dialed in, adjust with tire pressure for the minor tweaks.

I think you're keeping this car street legal, but just in case... might want to follow progress on the Robi-spec race-oriented supercharger... no a/c allowed!
