£600 roughly to spunk on the 197

[knowlewestfresh]

quick question - If you had £600 spare to spend on a standard 197 what would you buy?


im thinking semi slicks, ds2500, braided hoses and good brake fluid.

This the best route to take to get it ready for track?

Sprintbooster
ITG Maxogen
Vpowerrrrrrrrrrrr

 

[Gez]

Federal RSR's, Nankangs ns2-R, Yoko AD08R's

and as long as the standard discs and pads are fine along with fresh standard fluod, it'll be perfect.

Just spend the rest on the track day/fuel and maybe an instructor

I'd get the welds checked on the centre section of your exhaust as an OE replacement system is expensive and stainless falls in the budget, if yours is good then:

Sprintbooster
ITG Maxogen
Cooksport/H&R springs

sprint booster??

I am getting the car looked over next week and it Is under warranty

Yeh that little lot will do ya

I'm going to inspect the car properly next week and see what's needed, got a feeling my exhaust maybe blowing but I'm not sure, if my pads have a fair bit of meat I may just buy a rear anti-roll bar instead.

Looks like a good list! Let us know how you get on the Ns-2R's and the strut brace as I've debated buying for ages.
