I have upgraded pads, fluid already since the car is not a dedicated track car I am not cutting body panels to install cooling. I've done a reasonable number of driving schools as well so I know about braking zones and trail braking etc. Fact is these cars are heavy and on twisty mountain roads the amount of air flow on the stock brakes cannot cool enough for a really curvy road.

Could be money spent elsewhere if you have not tried pads, fluid and cooling.

I'm leaning toward coil overs one minute then springs. My camber plates were ordered today. Went with Vorshlag, looks like they can work with OEM perches and with the b14 Bilstein.
