What kind of suspension is the car sitting on?

I would suggest some full body coilovers if you're only on springs/shocks.
Although, that will run you over $900.

Nice pickup on the wheels/tires though!

Buy a helmet and race the car 3 times on the track

Or buy a T1R 70 or 63 exhaust

btw.. i re-read the post.. and saw you said it was lowered... but on coils? or springs? if springs, then spend the 900 and buy coils.

No tracks let you run without a roll bar.

If you plan to track your S, you have a roll bar

Since your car is pretty new I assume you still have your stock roll hoops.. you don't need after market roll bars to track your car unless you removed your stock roll hoops (For safety purposes)

IMHO take the car to the track so you can realize what you really want on the car...
