Replacement steel rotors are affordable, the amazing Orbit Racing brake cooling ducts are affordable. Springs are cheap. I found the Rollbar manufacturer located up North here in Florida, the rollbar weighs just 9 lbs, Orbit can install it so easily. Racing seats are cheap, harnesses cheap.
My pads are affordable now that PFC, Pagid and Endless are making them for my steel rotors. I'm going back to CCB rotors, as I can source them now on the cheap (and they last forever on the rear axle, and 20-25 track days on the front axle).
Affordable track day car, amazing sound, amazing look, super fun transmission, the best differential I have driven, and priced cheap for everything you get. It comes with Navi, CD, Radio, iPod link, Bluetooth and power everything, so it is street friendly. Better ground clearance for street use than a GT3 RS, and I have saved plenty of money by not having to replace as many parts as I used to do with my GT3 and GT3 RS.

Yeah, you'd fit right in on Fchat. Just don't forget to have your photographer to take pics in your full race outfit while they are still clean in case you spill your latte and before the car goes on the flat bed. Do practice your revving to make it sound perfectly measured at the valet...

I have a long list of witnessed GT3 and GT3 RS leaving a track day on a flat bed, disabled and undriveable on the trailer that brought them to the track. Many of the ones I have witnessed are regular posters here in RL.
I don't need to install monoballs, I don't need to replace a brand new clutch and pressure plate, I don't need to put on a brand new Limited Slip.
Do the math, $135k for a clean 2010 GT3 RS, then $25k on mods to make it Mancation capable, you forgot the 4.0RS clutch kit and PP so add another $4k for parts and labor, now you're near $165k, that's Scuderia price range.
My steel rotors installed this year are 405mm front and 350mm rear, front ones are thicker than my OEM CCB. Without any extra cooling, I ran the hottest track day at Sebring with zero brake fade, and now the car has the cooling ducts. My fastest Sebring laps are in 90+ degrees weather with 60% humidity, after a rain a few minutes before on a drying track, the car has a lot more in it (and even more with a better driver).
The stock Scuderia brakes give up too quickly, this is why it doesn't tolerate a long track session (unless you want to rear end all the Aero Beetles). Change the rotors, brake pads, add cooling, and problem solved. If I run on crappy tires, on a cold day, the brakes work just fine, they also work great for the average Fezza driver.
4.0RS are in the $200k range, add another $25k on mods (no need to replace clutch and PP), and you're on the $225k price range. The Scuderia needs much less, than $25 on safety modes, and you can ditch the stock CCB rotors in the used market for good money, so in the end you'll spend less than $10k making it track capable (safety, brakes and suspension updates).
The F430 Challenge (the race car) runs on the same engine and transmission as the street car, so the main vitals have been fully race tested around the world.
