370 as a track car

Rusty

If you are just starting out. Change the brake and clutch fluid. Change your brake pads too. Add an oil cooler. Basically keep it stock. Change things when your skills improve, or you run into problems.

I agree, I am in the same boat as OP. After talking to pops who has been tracking porsches for years, and reading what everyone has written(done my research), and having talked with local garage that runs track events. Brake pads, brake lines, brake fluid, maybe oil cooler next for summer-seem to be the best dollar for dollar upgrades you can do. Next for me would probably be tires.


You are going to get around the track with better times if you can brake well and hold the road. And if you are starting in a beginner group like I am, you are not going to be doing full speed for some time anyway. So things like CAI and exhaust upgrade are going to do you minimal good since those only seem to make a difference at the higher RPM's.

Things is, the stock Z already IS a fast car. Keep it and yourself alive-brakes+tires.
