Stutopia: your brz pics reminded me a bit of BSTiRDized one

This was posted on Facebook, which seems relevant (Chris Elek builds race engines, so he know's WTF he's talking about):

My car gets the same usage as you and I have always run it on Shell 0w-30 without issue. Although the car currently has 5w30 in it as its back from its recall and that is all Toyota would put in other then 0w20. I would happily run a good quality one of either but if both were side by side on the shelf I would take 0w30 Although I am in the same boat as you and looking to get an oil cooler dropped in this year to be super safe

@Stutopia buy some coilovers FFS! 😄

Mtec clutch spring! Thanks a lot @Mike@TD.co.uk, delivered in a day like he said! Install was fairly straightforward, although very very uncomfortable and tight due to the lack of space in the footwell and engine bay. Once the clutch pedal assembly is off, rest is easy. Getting it off was the pain for me. First impressions on a short drive to Tesco, clutch is slightly firmer and removes the initial play/sponginess in the stock spring. Engagement and feel is improved drastically and can actually feel the bite point. Also, makes changing gears more enjoyable and faster as the clutch springs back up more. Would recommend, simple and cheap mod.

I'm at Bedford April 6th providing it still goes ahead. I'm interested to see how it'll be on track - certainly on the road it seems well worth it but I do wonder whether it may end up a little short for on track (especially somewhere like Bedford). I've got loads of Bedford videos so it'll be interesting to be able to compare speeds into and out of various sections to see what difference it has made.
