New wheel combo, C4 Cuisine wheels upfront with Hawks Motorsports GTA rear wheels. The wheel combo takes inspiration from racing cars from the 80s with front mounted turbo fams for brake cooling. She lost 7lbs with those rear GTA wheels. Also, APR Performance GT3 mirrors replaced the power mirrors now, for a weight loss of 7lbs.

Changed up the exhaust system as well for the ideal sound I wanted at high RPMs. Went to a true dual 2.25" exhaust with two 18" Cherry Bomb Glasspacks.

TRD exhaust tips added, adds a nice little factory touch to the exhaust.

Ultra Racing front and rear chassi braces installed to improve rigidity. Hell of a difference too surprisingly.

Replaced the front Raybestos semi metallic pads with another set of Porterfield Racing Brake Pads carbon kevlar front brake pads, as the Raybestos pads ended up throwing alot of metallic material and inviting rust. These pads have the same bite but because of the compound they do not dust as much and should be able to handle a track day, as well as be a good street pad. These pads were combined with R1 Concepts GEOMET carbon metallic brale rotors to handle the heat well.

They gave me the weight specs too, showing the weight distribution front to rear, and per corner. Looking at 57.5 %front/42.5% rear, stock dist.is 54/46 so it looks like my weight reduction efforts made it slightly nose heavy. Cant say I feel any handling changes though, grip is fantastic. Got the accurate curb weight too, 3407lbs, Ive got 5lbs of stuff I didnt need in there.

Picked up PSB polyurethane control arm bushings to stiffen things up in the front.

Pne of my favorite new additions, solid rear diff bushings. Combined with the underbody braces, it feels rigid. Very rigid. Love the feeling of a nice, solid car.

Also, been working on a sort of 'cold air' feed out of the factory airbox, to maximize airflow to the factory airbox and block off as much heat away from incoming air as possible. Keeps inlet air temps within 8° out ambient air temps.
