    Prob would sell a car, shipping it out of the country would be quite pricey, leaving it - quite stupid. Shame though; fully loaded suspension setup was sweet AF

    I don't think warranty is working outside the US, haha. And I'm the second owner, first owner drive car for 72 km before it got sold. Money is a second factor. The waiting time is the first (considering current politic crap out there). I need to wait like 4-5 weeks after ordering. And the...

    I believe there are several factors. I run the engine with some missfires for some time. That means vibrations... There were both electro problems and possibly spark plugs issues (fixed all) And, mostly, I think missshifts. After MGW installation I missshifted like 6 times :( Block is ruined...

    Best states to live in (road racing in mind)?

    Thanks for answers! So much help! Yeah, I know about map with tracks, but it's kinda hard to know exact situation with community/events/etc. I will be shipping my car to USA, or sold it here and buy another car, once I moved to USA.

    Best states to live in (road racing in mind)?

    Hello TMO community! I'm currently planning to move to USA and want to know some opinions from the inside - what states considered to have best road-racing scene? E.g. good fast racetrack(s), big racing community, events, not crazy anti-tune laws like in Cali (sadly, cause it's an obvious choice...

    Hawk DTC-70/DTC-60 vs OEM GT350 pads

    yes, for sure. Will do duct mode later, but for now it's no need.

    Hawk DTC-70/DTC-60 vs OEM GT350 pads

    Yep, same story. If track is proper fast course with hard braking, stock brakes are done in 1 session 100%. Changed the pads and fluid and it's no problem even on some hard on brakes track here (Sochi F1 for example).

    Hawk DTC-70/DTC-60 vs OEM GT350 pads

    I have SPL front arms, so no vorshlag mode for me.

    Hawk DTC-70/DTC-60 vs OEM GT350 pads

    Weird. I have stock rotors, usually powerstop trackdays last around 700 track kilometers (I think that's good, no?). Strong bite, strong feel - complete opposite of the oem crap. OEM was cooked after first session on the proper track, never coming back in terms of braking power after that...

    GT350 spanner warning on track

    Could be an electrical circuit issues only, imo. Go to a shop and re-check circuits, should be an easy fix. It's not uncommon thing on GT350.

    Ruining my dreams! Hahaha. Now I'm not that sure about oil pan... I have around 3k track kilometers, so hoping for around 7 more before getting serious problems Didn't you get much more from your engine?

    S550 Storm Vodoo

    Huge thanks for an input! I'm a bit in a vacuum right here with that car, so few things fly higher than my knowledge. Didn't know about flywheel, only about engine mounts and trans mount. Flywheel is definitely not for this year. But what about oil pan? I ordered GT500 oil pan and oil pump, as...

    Hawk DTC-70/DTC-60 vs OEM GT350 pads

    Idk how are you guys are running on stock pads, they aren't good with constantly pushing the car through the whole session. Idk how any of the aftermarket with track-specified compound could be worse, but anything possible I guess I'm using Powerstop Trackday, cheap af and doing their job pretty...
