Very budget track build
Mekaniko:
Maybe you can change your rims for a 17' ones? Less weight as the OEM ones are very heavy as far as I know, pro-track are very good on quality-price.
Regarding the tires, this tyre profile still quite good to have a track use but a semi-slick tyre will be a game changer, AR-1 will do a excelent job on it!
I have B12 on my GTI and it's a good suspension for daily driving but for track use I would not recomend it as it is too soft, go for BC ;) and specially if you will go for the slick tires.

Wheels are on my list and yeah probably will just get a set of ns2r for now but would like to have a spare set of ar1's for dry use. Ahh i assumed as they are monotube and up rated they may be OK but fair enough sounds like bc racing is deffo the way to go.
Mekaniko:
Yes, Ar-1 are very good tires but will not work if the track is not dry.
Did you know about Zestino? Good tires for the money.

Not heard of them actually. Dry only sort of semi slick? Or ok for wet track work as well?

Never driven it on wet track but I heared good reports from it.
