First Track Day in the Z

Learn to drive with what you have. Also take advantage of the NASA HPDE awards program as you move up. If you are not in HPDE 3 you probably are not going to gain much. The tires you have are fast enough. You need to prioritize your purchases. I would suggest getting the following:

Hotchkis front sway bar
SPL front end links
SPL rear camber arms and tow bolts
Wavetrac rear diff
SPL front upper A arms
Coilovers.

That will get you ready for TT and by then you should have learned everything you need to know and how deep you want to go. I did mention the the other things that deal power because they are obvious ones and you will need a tune if do them. If say NA and go for the whole enchilada with everything you can for suspension, wheels and other non-consumables you can easily spend $10 to 15k. So it just depends on what size rabbit whole you want to jump down. Ask me how I know! LMAO
