Build Sheet - feedback wanted
Attached is my Spec Box build sheet. I welcome any/all feedback.
I am particularly curious as to any opinions on part sourcing, as well as the best/most efficient order in which to do everything.
Please let me know if I am missing something, or have something on the list that is unnecessary.
Thanks.
Steve
Sorry for the multiple files - they were too large to upload as one.

The electric powersteering kit is not legal for SPB. Also the price for the Accusump kit is much more than $250.
Lastly, I don't recall seeing the center radiator, brake cooling (GT3 ducts), or replacing the wheel bearings at all 4 corners (preventative).
Transponder?
I might have listed something that you had on one of the lists. Best of luck and welcome to the SPB club.

Suggest you source gt3 brake cooling ducts and bearings from Sunset Porsche in Oregon. They sell out of state for a significant discount. Contact Luke: LukeRogers -at- sunsetimports -dot- com
You can source an Accusump from multiple vendors but I think the guys at LN Engineering can give you good advice about size/setup - they have lots of experience with M96 motors and Boxsters.

Some suggestions. I'm sure I missed some items but here is my list of additional things:
SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Arm restraints
BODY/INTERIOR
Data acquisition?
Video camera (and mount)?
Shift Light?
S/H for top is $150+
ENGINE/TRANSMISSION
Smaller drive belt
Spark plugs?
Block-off plates if SAI removed
MAF sensor? At least buy one for a spare
Tranny cooler?
Gear Oil (Motul or similar)
EXAUST/WHEELS/TIRES
Race exhaust system $1000+/-
Tires-Toyo RR now allowed, the RA-1 will remain the rain tire
SUSPENSION/STEERING/BRAKES
Brake Fluid
Wheel stud kit
Adjustable toe links?
Consider replacing all 4 upper shock mounts-preventative, just like wheel bearings
In addition to the above, consider spares that you'll want to take to the track.
