Default Round 2. 05 S2000 with track plans

My S2000 Story....
I totaled my first 03 Berlina Black s2000. Some guy made a left from a straight only lane forcing me into a curb and drove off. Luckily someone chased him down... I thought I would be okay not having a s2000, but I was wrong. Two years after constantly contemplating, I purchased a 05 Silverstone. Since then I have just been working to get the car ready to track. I plan on starting with local autocross events to get some seat time but would really like to pursue local tracks like VIR. The car is not my daily anymore, I purchased a 08 TL-S ... I would LOVE any direction inside of S2KI to proper feeds or helpful opinions.
Here is where I am at so far...
  • Replaced Clutch and all assembly (slave and master cylinder)
  • Replaced all fluids
  • Decided to just go with a hardtop and removed my tore up soft top
  • Valve Adjustment & Plugs
  • Alignment
  • Some minor clean up and update around the car
Moving forward I want to get some track time and get a good feel for the car. I plan on driving, then updating and repeating that process so I get a good feel for the limits of the car versus just modifying and driving...
  • I need new tires so I plan on getting Potenza RE-71R because I occasionally like to do some cruises. Staying staggered for now
  • Sway Bar... Plan on getting something modest before I get something pricey like Karcepts
  • Suspension. (!!! I want to do Coilovers, either Ohlins, KW, or Fortune. Fortune is local so I may go that route)
  • Brake Pads ( I have stainless steel lines)
  • & finally Rims..
My future future plans
Update bushings, motor mounts, and maybe add aero if I get really into tracking this thing..
