I've finally unloaded a set of Volks left over from my 350Z. I've got some cash to play with and was positive I was going to go ahead with the Cobb Stg. 2 package, but now I'm having second thoughts. If you had $2K to play with would you get the AccessPort and work on the suspension, or get the AccessPort & TBE and have fun with all of that new power? Keep in mind that I've already picked up the Pinks and HSTs.

Thats tough. I will say it is a lot of fun to have the power. But I went with the TBE and Accesport at the same stage you were at after doing the HST Pinks.

Thanks for the feedback. Tell me, do you track the STi? You can have fun with a Civic on track if you're on the ragged edge, but I want the power for some more embarrassing spankings street-side.

Yes I do plan on tracking the car asap, have done several in the past, but have been concentrating on bike track days as they are much cheaper. I still think I will have to wait on getting a good set of sway bars before doing a HPDE as well as some brakes, esp with the added power. But once those are done I will get on to my first event in the car.

by the time you get one thing done, it leads to another, you should just get all of it

i say power first then you will likely know how you want to tune the suspension.. then again an adjustable suspension will accomodate your needs.. its all about what kind of driver you are
i myself have the cobb stage 2 (my version) and its tight !
