What I did to my car 2012
I've been hearing some of us have some decent projects going this winter, so let's post up some photos and get some chat going.
For my winter, I've spent way too much money. So far I've put in new Recaro Pole Positions, and bought my exhaust. Once my header gets coated and back, I'll get that install. Hopefully no more big money spent. For now.....

Nice seats! How much do those weigh? What exhaust is that?
I changed plugs, check valve retainers, changed engine and cabin filters, changed clutch fluid, and did a compression test so far. I just bought it late December.
Berk 63mm TP and Aerospace 303 fabric top cleaner/protector kit on the way. Plus going to do the following before spring hits:
-clean IAC valve
-maybe replace TCT part from Billman
-axle nut correct torque check
-clutch rod adjustment
-check cam wheel bolt
-motor, diff, & tranny oil changes

No pictures for now but work has started
I went backward With the mods when I bought the car to run in A/B stock class now Selling the stock stuff to remod the car and run in STR class
Detailed
Wolfgang total swirl remover polish and sealant ( worked great at all those cone marks!!)
Top cleaned and protected with ragg top
And covered with oem cover
Plans to be finished by spring
Upgrade suspension koni yellows, ground control springs, ground control top hats
Ap2v1 rears at all 4 need to find 2 rears yet so I can machine the hub bore
255 star spec's all around
Wheel spacers as needed to fit flush but not aggressive rolling flush
Maybe
Different exhaust
Downforce side stakes
Arc intake again what can I say I like the look
Will add pics as I add parts

And the exhaust is the Evassive Spec T1R 70EM
John.. I'll be interested to hear the exhaust this summer. I was between that one and the Greddy SE. I got the Greddy and really like it, but its as mellow as I'd want.
