Thanks and every ISF should have come with one of these from the factory...oh well and I am trying to figure out what to do next...I am kind of torn between tracking it some or 1/2 racing...either way I may need a lighter 19in wheel and MORE POWER...still trying to decide how to do that...next steps???

suggestion... get some better wheel betters, and sell those rims for some ADVANS or VOLKS way lighter rims help with unleashing some hp. get some suspension a full coilover system that's race proven. then hate to say it cause I love how they did the covers in the engine bay, but lose the engine covers it gets too hot in there... get a drop in air filter.

1) Been looking at Advan Racing RSD wheels (19 in)
2) Just waiting to pull the trigger on #1 above to get BC Coilovers with swift springs from FIGS. Cannot do that now because with the wheel setup I have I would have issues lowering the car.
3) Yeah on race day I would definetly loose all the engine covers, spare tire, jack, etc...
4) Already have a TOMS drop in filter.
Just trying to decide what I really want to do next before making the leap...right now I am trying to buy a house so my cash is tied up but this winter I plan to start addressing my future plans with the car so it will be ready for next spring...wish me luck!!!

Good luck with your house purchasing... I'm in the same boat kinda... lots of people going with bc and swift... hmmm I've working and in bed with teins suspension the whole bc and swift setup I've tried that on someone else car during track, its meeehhhh to me compared to teins I love the super street more. But thats just me...

I hear you...that was just an option just like the Advan wheels...if I get to that point, trust me that I will do a good bit of research before I buy anything but for right now I am digging my CV3 wheels and I love the look and stance of the car as it sits with everything I have done to it so far!

OH forgot along down the road, get tires with better side walls your going to need them anyways... i've had bridgestone blow up on me, the ones on my car nearly blew up, michelins I find their not that grippy. but more bang for the buck my suggestions FALKENS azenis 453 sidewalls are strong, and like the actual azenis it is more meant for street use and track.
