Yes, the GT3 is totally focused towards trackday enjoyment, but it is also quite biased towards road use and safety.

The GT3 steel brakes are amongst the best in the business – but they haven’t lasted, so on go the Alcon discs and uprated Pagid RS29 pads. Initial feel is great on the road, impressive bite and good feel. Look forward to seeing how it works on track.

I’ve also had the track set up from JZ Machtech so now I have better surface area contact on tyre tread – this should give me better turn in and grip on the circuit and also provide me with much better wear rates on the prohibitively expensive tyres. On road impressions are good again, with crisper turn in and confidence inspiring traction on lean in bends. Although there has been a noticable increase in tramlining, I guess the 3deg adgustment now has the tyres hunting out changes to road surface.

Aside from the service it’s had with engine and gearbox oil changes, I’ve also resprayed the wheels black. They look awesome and are even better in the flesh. I’ve opted out of the black gloss that comes with the RS’s and instead gone for a mat finish which appears to have worked fantastic on the white car. Very happy with this decision and the Alcon discs look huge behind the wheels.

Looking forward to the Ring at the end of this month!
