Didn't notice any issues with elevation and engine performance. Going up hill... that's what slowed me down.

just my ears constantly popping.
id think my turbo wasnt spooling or something til i swallowed.
cars ran just fine though.

main problems with my car were tires, shitty brake pads, and i think the biggest was the seat. i spent most of m time fighting to stay planted, and i have a bruise on my hip from it.
before i go back i want better brake pads, better compund maybe wider tires, but number one is a seat.

GTR seats would be sweet for this.

Although a reclinable bucket seat would do suffice

Fucking christ. I just got home. Hole in block with rod haning out of it. YAY. Oil-relocation thinggy decided to say fuck you and leak or burst or something. There is oil everywhere on that side of the bay.

I'll post my summary tomarrow morning while at work, I'm fucking beat. Maybe make a thread because I got alot to go over plus pics to post.

Awesome trip though.

Seat makes a huge help in the turns, harness makes the difference under hard brakeing. So I'm really glad I had both.

looked like a fun trip, a shame that oil-filter relocation kit fucked up, based on the pics it looks like you guys had fun!

+1 on seat/harness
