Speak for yourself. I bought the base model because I didn't want to pay for all the of extra useless crap on the Sport, such as the SRM and a few other things.

Lighter stronger wheels, bigger brakes, and an attempt at a decent differential are not things I would consider useless

But if you've already gone and replaced all those with even better parts then more power to you

I run Nismo wheels, upgraded brake pads, and don't really care about the diff right now. Besides, I have EcuTek's adjustable traction control, so that helps some.

Upgraded pads aren't the same thing as bigger rotors and bigger calipers

For street use, they're perfectly fine.

EcuTek traction control can only help you so much with an open diff. A new diff should be one of your next priority mods with the power you now have...that is if you want to get it to the ground in a significant way.

True, but stock works for now. Again, I don't race. But if I did, even the stock open diff is quite capable of laying down elevens in a straight line.
