I have started doing track days so wanted a little extra up front. I like the red/yellow calipers but I dont like the stock pbr painted red/yellow (rear) so decided on the subtle black look ;)

Soon I might look at Kmac camber caster options.
For track days to produce the fastest lap times, I'd leave the stock brakes on the front and use a better rotor and carbon metallic race pads so I could fit 18" wheels on the car with R Spec tyres. Tyres are "everything" to maximise corner speed and enjoy pushing the car more safely with tyre grip that road tyres don't provide. 18" has the greatest range of R Spec tyres with a few cheaper options that are massively better than any road tyre.

I have thought about this too. If I go down that route i might have to go to koya for some custom 18s

Or try the Pilot Sport Cup 2 next. Cost double price of 18s tho

I do have the stock 19s in the shed ;)

Everything worked out well. Drilled, tapped and installed. Just need to run them in a little before next track day.
