This now gives me some free place to insert my oil temp sender unit and if I want at a later stage, there is still some more space for an oil cooler

The car is an MY07 (08 model), 50,000kms. Yup, got some super dot 4 brake fluid on the way along with the hardware. The fluid is what GSL recommend for track work.Originally Posted by noone

A few goodies were acquired this week, to be installed on the weekend.
Front rotors will be machined and remsa pads cleaned up. Also get the ultra racing front lower brace installed.
Camera for a bit of fun on the track days and what not.
As for further mods, the plan is really just for better tyres from here. Might do the dump pipe and retune, will see how my lap times are if I feel the need for a little extra. I'm otherwise very happy with the setup, albeit at quite a basic level to many others here.

Enjoy the GoPro.
I use the suction cup mount and it fits well on the windscreen so you don't get hte massive wind noise.
Had to send my Hero 3 Silver back for a replacement as the wifi transponder wasn't working.
The rest of the video and still capture worked flawlessly though.
