New clutch master cylinder, new wheels and tires. Will try and see what the V6 special can do in CAM.

The only thing I'm trying to figure out for next year is building some new ramps for my trailer. Since the car is now significantly lower with proper autocross wheels and tires it's gonna drag to all hell with the current ramp setup.

Race Ramps will extend your existing ramps and you will be fine.

I'll second the race ramps. They may be pricey but they're worth it.

The Race Ramps are super nice for checking sway bar fasteners and things of that nature, too.

I have a set of Race Ramps I'd sell. I need some bigger ones. Mine are 6" tall and 4' long, I think.

Sway bar installed successfully! Took about 5 hours taking my time. Steering rack had to be dropped.

$300 worth of fluid changes :x and some pads with hopefully more bite... I'm ready to get back to it. It's been a good DD and its fun to drive around on the street but it's much more fun carving around cones.
