best handling rx8
i have a stock 2004 rx8 and i wanna know what i should do to make it even better at handling, and what i should do to make it go around a track way faster, like brakes and stuff like that. i know im not gnna be able to afford more speed so i might as well do this thanks

I would start with tires.
Then work on suspension.
I upgraded to Konis/Tein-S springs and it was a major improvement above stock.
Then upgrading swaybars would probably help.
Installing a front strut bar, possibly rear.
The stock brakes are actually pretty good, if you replace the pads + brakelines you should be okay.

stock car has plenty of capabilities around the track, get some better brake pads, flush the brake fluid with one that's rated at a higher boiling temp, spend the rest of the money on track days and a helmet, learn on crappy tires and upgrade to better ones once you wear these out.

With the wrong combination of suspension mods, you can rune your handling.

Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta tires NUFF SAID! i always kiss them goonight. great handling and they wear pretty slowly by max performance tire standards. they have really good wet grip too, beats the crap out of toyo. but i'm also with coldf1ame and alnielsen , boost up your skillz its a sports car from birth! get good tires and brake pads and keep the car well maintained.
