I think its going to depend on your driving style and what track you are setting it up for

 

Not sure I would do anything until I have had a few tracking sessions in the car. I would check the obvious things like proper tire pressure, proper tires for the track, brake pad condition, brake system- when was the last time you bleed the brakes of changed the fluid? Maybe a good harness and seat, but that's about it. Oh yeah.............gas! I think you will be very suprised how good a package Porsche put together right off the showroom floor!

I would highly recommend taking your new GT3 to a knowledgable alignment shop who knows how to set up 911's before you attempt to track. Will make a big difference. From the factory, they are usually not set up quite right. The GT3 is very sensitive to alignment (or mis-alignment). Could cost you more if spin your ride into something solid should you not align first....

 

You are absolutely right... almost every GT3 I know of comes misaligned from the factory. It is indeed alignment sensitive, and with the eccentrics in the suspension, it is very easy to lose your alignment as well if you go over bumps or rough surfaces (particularly toe settings).

The GT3 is one of the best or worst handling cars depending on how it's setup.

 

Maybe time to post a sticky of recommended alignment shops?

West End Alignment - Gardena, CA is fantastic w/ many years of P car experience. Done with you in the car, a few test drives etc. and your out the door in 3 hours. He's meticulous.

 

Street tires or r-compound?
