The BCL manly uprights required me to run tension cables, i loved the way it looked but felt that it was creating more drag than helping. So i marked where i wanted to chop off and went to town.

Some people will just put on new bearings, but i see no reason too if these are still in good condition, I was able to pull them and install them without hurting the bearing race or the roller bearings

Went ahead and did the rear diff to subframe bushings, this was such a pita, even with the bushing press tool

The air chisel makes removing the old diff ear bushings a cake walk, i highly recommend getting one.

Difference for pad surface coverage, left carbotech xp12, right ebc yellow stuff. Sacrificing noise and slightly more brake dust going with the xp12 but definitely worth the trade off for track usage

Dialed in. Caster had to be reset since they weren't able to match the front passenger, but after the reset, dialing in was solid. For anyone who wants to know my specs, it's nothing special but heres how it sits, Caster 3.88 Camber 3.22 Toe .05

Laguna Seca, we're the only two lexus sports coupe here on an R's Day (GTR event specific) but i had a buddy who was able to put together a private group run of advanced drivers, so getting a good lap time was easy to do, using the faster cars slip stream helped alot. I think this may be the last track day with the BCL wing, even after being shortened with the uprights, it still feels like its causing a slight drag but not as bad as before. Will have to look i to something more efficient.
