Yeah, it depends on what you want to prioritize when shopping for a dash cam. I'm not too worried about parking as my mentality is "oh well, that's what insurance is for", but recording quality for price was my main target. Specifically, getting tailgaters. People here get really offended if you drive the speed limit in a sports car. Even if you are in the right lane.

-2.0 degrees camber will only add very minimal additional wear as long as toe is kept in check. Your -1.5 degrees camber is essentially at the edge of factory spec. So, if you experienced premature wear, either your alignment specs or your suspension bushings were the problem. That assumes your driving style isn't so aggressive as to cause the wear.

To add to that, your toe settings are going to be what wears the tires out quickly. I have around -2.4 degrees of camber all around and no real issues.

Put the summer tires/wheels back on and gave it a much needed good bath!

Finally got around to installing the stillen gen 3 long tube CAI. Haven't driven since last fall so not sure how much of a difference it made but engine bay looks a little better at least.

First autocross of the season (in reasonable weather at least). Smashed a cone and ripped out my fender liner, overdid my new ‘street’ brake pads, and blew out an exhaust gasket before the muffler when an exhaust bolt rattled off. The car sounds like a monster truck now. Eventful day to say the least!! Lol
I guess I was too optimistic that basic ‘street’ pads would be fine for autocross. Although the course I’m running in RI has some very open sections where I’m able to get pretty deep into 3rd gear. Probably 80mph or so. I did enjoy that these pads had much more modulation whereas I found myself locking up the fronts too easily under hard braking with the carbotechs. I’m going to have to step up to something like EBC Red/Yellowstuff for a dailyable pad that can better handle autox. Any recommendations or should I just go right to the EBCs and call it a day?

Had a quick weekend trip to see the family this weekend… averages 28.2 mpg over 240 miles with some stop n go…peaked at 29.4. I’ve never seen above 24 in this car, so that was wild. It felt moderately practical for a second when I had my two doggos in the car, and getting that MPG…

My 2018 Sportech with 6M transmission averages around 28 mpg on mostly highway driving. My 2019 Sport Touring with a 7 auto transmission averages about 30 mpg for mostly highway. I drive like an old man and the weather is warm when I drive, so I don't think that I can do better than that.

My Z gets to be a guinea pig , for a 3d printed piston seal. (TPU) Clutch master cylinder . for this to work properly and to last, the oem fluid needs fully flushed and only dot5 added. This is the only fluid to not break down TPU.
