For me, it's mostly to use it more! I want to do some more on track events - track days, motokahana and skidpan type events.
While there are a few want to do mods on the car, I think using it needs to be top of the list, find out what I really need - if anything.

Me too - drive it more! Quite certain my son with his new RF will have a lot of influence on that!!

Here’s mine:
1) wheel alignment
2) bolt the harness in
3) Do a practice day at Morgan Park for a shake down.

=1. Sort out a more upright seat to suit my aging back. Either Sparco Sprint (trial fitting in progress) or Recaro RS-G (dimensions seem good, yet to obtain one).
=1. Replace the igniter I have overworked with too much duration at high revs. Bloody old Adaptronic with constant dwell. Do I need a better ECU?
3. De-rust the cage and reinstall to test fit with whatever seat arrangement I end up with. Possibly get AGI to modify it or build a new one to set back the top bar by a cm or two. Bloody tall genes!
4. Sort out how to mount the groin belts of the 6 point belts after I change the seat mount arrangement. Reattach harness.
5. Reinstall cold air box.
5. Get track tyres.
6. Hit the track (and not the wall).
n. Somewhere in there I'd like to get conditional rego.
