I think I will go WP mag wheels, if available, also delete AC, PCCBs I am interested in how all of these parts will hold up to the abuse. Does anyone know if the cup cars or the RSR have these carbon bits? I am hoping that they won't become pretty paper weights after a few track weekends but we all may be their test drivers!

I will certainly see, Suncoast has the sway bars for like $2500 so not going to be cheap. Not sure what the regular sway bars go for, but I'm sure it's not cheap either

That's the funny part, some guys think the WP is to "racer" yet the car screams street race car with the things you've pointed out. I'll only get WP if I can get mag wheels and if it doesn't prevent getting PTS (when and if that becomes available).

I'm doing Track build with WP and PCCBs going to switch to Surface Transforms for the Carbon brakes looks like they are holding up well and lasting, cost wise, comparatively to Steel. I really missed the carbon when I switched to Steel on my old RS, the unsprung weight is signif and I like the peddle action for some reason, it works for me. Getting Mg wheels when available and prob GT2RS style cage from GMG, likely Dundon race headers and side delete with lightweight motorsports battery, I plan on talking with the guys at the factory in regards to modifications and possible advantages. I would have deleted the AC and Radio but then why not just by a Cup!
If you're getting the ST brakes, why spec PCCB? Seems like a waste of 9K. Can't you just get the base irons, and the ST upgrade kit?

Not a fan of the WP either. IMO only the wheels are desirable and they are not available for my allocation. I don't over spec my cars and they are easier to sell. My dealer sold my RS in a week. The high spec cars are hearing crickets.

Just to clarify, yes you can get the base irons and upgrade to our ST rotors using the same calipers with a hardware kit : ) As the ST rotors are about $13k and you can sell the irons and recoup a few thousand...you end up in for about the same amount but with ceramic rotors that are better in many ways than the PCCB's and you can refurbish for about $600 per rotor, instead of throwing away and having to replace for about 10x that amount like the PCCBs.

I moved from a July build to a December build, in part to get the Weissach pack. l may use a satin ppf on the carbon if I think it needs to tone down a bit. I think in person, the exposed carbon is going to look great and far from cheap aftermarket.
