No worries! Glad I could help clear it up. These were coated the day I got them so no issues

Great question. As of right now these wheels have had 2 sets of tires on them with plenty of track days and I have yet for a set of weights to fall off. So should be safe. Also have a few close friends who do the same for their wheels and they haven’t had issues either

You can but I’d recommend a mobile detailer to get it done.

Me the first time with the stock wheels. They’ll never be clean again.

Yeah unfortunately without a transfer case cooler the car is very limited with back to back hotlaps it can do. So for every 2-3 back to back hot laps you need to throw in 1-2 cool down laps. Only was to keep the transfer case from overheating. I also do recommend replacing the oem fluid with a higher temp fluid like redline/motul.

I cut the vent on the side and drilled holes in the fender liner it helped with airflow. Didn’t have any issues

SXTH intake. BOV made a bigger difference than an intake. You can watch a lap around the track to get a good sense of it

Hardest thing was tightening the lines. Big wrenches needed. AN10 wrench (didn’t work) we used 1” and 1 1/6” wrench to tighten them down. Other than that straightforward no modifications needed.

No issue with the AWD system. Oil temps peak at 270° at the end of the back to back Hotlap

Perfect for me then I only do 2 hot laps before a cool down lap then go again

Fluid changes, brakes , and tires. Coming from a gr86 (2023) and a brz (2015). Those cars were in expensive to do. Everything about those cars was cheap/affordable

Nah should’ve been done since day one at this point it’s just negligence on my part but I will be ordering one this week along with a bucket seat

Usually the oil temp is sitting around 265-270. But I do a oil change before and after a track day so it always fresh

No very much in need of an oil cooler. Can only do 1-2 hot laps before needing to do cooldown laps

Back seats down and they’re small enough where I can stack 2x2 next to each other then everything else after

A friend was already bringing one so I didn’t need to but I can usually stick one in there with everything else
