Hi Mate, is your car a 3.4? whats the spec (apart from the suspension mods)? Also, what mileage is the car at (has it had a rebuild)? just bought a 98 C2 with a little over 100K and trying to get a feel for its suitability for track days - the car runs really well but i am a little concerned about the negative stuff on the web/forums.I obviously dont want to grenade the engine. Lastly, what steering wheel do you use - the standard one is just a little too big for me.
Yes it's a standard 3.4 with 80K, no rebuild but I did upgrade the IMS bearing to ensure that wasn't a problem and I added a 3rd radiator to keep things cooler on the track. Brakes are standard disks/rotors with track pads. Momo 350mm steering wheel. It's done 18 track days in 16 months and with regular oil changes its been fine.
