I am beginning to wonder about you guys and your nut-fascination today. Hmmm....

Sometimes they feel like a nut sometimes they don't

Just signed up for Chin Motorsports membership. Now I can track a hole lot more with several tracks they offer several times a year at that. Most are two day events.

I have 3 things in mind but only have the cash to commit to two before she goes away for the winter. Choice numero uno, front & rear sways. Numero dos, cross drilled rotors w/ upgraded pads & brake lines. Numero tres, oil cooler. I fig I should def do the oil cooler although Id RATHER get choice 1 &2. Thoughts?? Also thoughts/opinions on oil catch cans. Worth it?

hmm, well, if you are only planning on street driving, no track time, then cross drilled rotors are fine, but they are more suseptible to cracking if you start tracking your car so I'd recommend slotted, j hook, or even just smooth (like oem) rotors instead.

I'd do lines/pads/fluid and stay on stock rotors till they're done, upgrade the sways and if you ever plan on tracking the car, add an oil cooler. :tup:

I installed StopTech slotted rotors, Hawk HPS pads, Goodridge SS lines and Ate fluid a few months ago (maybe longer) and it made a huge difference in pedal feel, responsiveness and stopping capability. For what it is worth...

I do not track the 370 as I have a bit of a "fitting in the car with a helmet on" issue. I do, however, drive in a "spirited" manner most of the time (when traffic and weather conditions allow, of course). BTW: I have no such problem in my 240.

This is exactally what I think Im gonna do actually. I was thinking today that I should run my stock rotors down before blowin money on new ones. I do hope to track the car, at least a few times, eventually.
