I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the hood is gonna make a big difference for example, the trackspec users report drops of 10-15 deg on the street and 20 deg on the track thread:...

Our front end is ducted with a 72 row oil Cooler. Not trying to bash you. Running 220-240. What is your set up.

Redline 5w30 + vented hood + 25 row Z1 oil cooler. No issues so far. Knock on wood.

This, good cooler positioning and ducting make a major difference, and a splitter too can help a lot. The stock radiator opening in general sucks for air flow, stacking coolers in front of the...

I highly recommend Mutol v300 5w40, I use it for 2-3 track days and then I change it. Good luck with your choice. :hello:

Your pads are fine, I used the same brake pad and rotor combination with no problem. Gloc, Winn and Hawk are few that people use. COTA is hard on brakes because it is high high speed course that...

Pedal going soggy says you've boiled the fluid. You would need to bleed the brakes before the next session. I regularly track my Z (and race an historic V8 MG) and baseline brake fettling was...

Upgrade your diff to a Wavetrac or an OS Giken. It will help.
