Default New AP2 Owner in AZ

First off, wow! So much good knowledge in the s2ki community. With the amount of info I knew about the S2K before purchasing it seemed like I already had one in the garage!

Recently bought an 07 Rio Yellow with 50k on the odometer. Incredibly well taken care of by two previous (retired) owners. Car was in great shape and all the maintenance records were intact since it was first driven off the lot. Got it for $19.9K too, hopefully a good deal.

Planning on doing all the major fluids this weekend, engine oil, tranny, diff, to make sure I'm starting fresh. Should I also be doing a bleed/flush on the clutch?

Only other thing next on the list is some new shoes. Currently has Fuzion ZRi's all around. Been looking into the Potenza RE970s as they seem to have great reviews. I'll never be taking this into the ice or snow though, so summer tires it might be. Any recommendations on a high treadlife summer tire? I won't be doing any track days, but will be doing the occasional spirited driving and mountain road runs.

Thanks!

There are weekly meets on Mondays and Wednesdays, on different sides the Phoenix metro area. Welcome and congratulations on your new purchase. In what part of Arizona are you?
