The local road course track is almost open and I want to start preping my car for it but Im not really sure what parts would be best for a daily driven car. My original plan for the suspension was H&R race springs with koni yellows, rre front and rear strut bars, and sway bars. The rim/tire combo is limited right now. I planned on putting mitsu 5 spoke rims on but what kind of tire should I look into? Remember this is a daily driver that sees snow and rain alot. Also, would it be wise to invest in a LSD? Im also investing in the "factory big brake kit" the 2 piston calipers with bigger rotors, portfeild pads, braided lines, and better fluid. Thats all I can think of right now. Please give me your opinions/suggestions. Thanks in advance.
 
would it be wise to invest in a LSD?

YesSSSSSSSSS.. but you have to learn how to drive the car all over again. won't take long. :p

the rest of your list looks sufficient

INter Cooling!!.. Turn down the boost..

make some sheilding for your intake and perhaps even the Tbelt shieild /accesory area. DSM's get HOT @ track days. Make sure your cooling system is up to snuff.
 
Thanks for the responce. Ill list my engine setup then ask about an interooler.

Thats all thats on there for now. I was thinking about getting a 255 fuel pump and a AFPR so I can increase boost more but Im going to wait for my EGT gauge. If I stick with that setup do you think a small flowing front mount intercooler would be wise for street/track? I was thinking a greddy because it doesnt flow tons of air and it doesnt have a huge pressure drop. It would also match up with the intercooler piping I already have. What are your guys thoughts on that?
