I get the feeling now that I have heard the motor I might need to upgrade my brakes and diff pretty soon... Because Ive gone nuts to get the car running, whats my best cost effective brake upgrade? FC Brakes?

Dash back in with some paint and aftermarket gauges as I cant trust the factory ones at this point
went with a classic JDM Bride seat set up.
here is the finished up set up, going on a trailer today for drop off to the tuner... getting Brent Curran from CBR Racing to put the tun on it, cause he is a pro

Hi, Not in New Zealand , we are road legal with factory belts (and I just installed brand new ones) but I do plan on putting a half cage in at least with harness system... the plan is to get it tuned, get some kms on it, then diff swap, brake upgrade and cage probably in 3-6 months time.
After that just drive, I am about to enter a bunch of classic car events like Targa Tour etc... I do have a Group C body Kit for it, but I think I will keep it Havana Brown and narrow body for a while and just enjoy it, after a lot of hard and sometimes frustrating work... Grow some love back so to say.
That said this is a californian car I imported to NZ so I still have the Cali plates and title... If I ever do sell it, I think I will ship it back to Los Angeles and sell it there.... there is simply a bigger racecar market in the states than NZ

Well its been dyno tuned and back for a few more finishing touches like water overflow bottle and stuff. Buttoned up a few small oil leaks... and here is a quick vid of me driving it to the tire shop to get my rims checked over before a track day in a few weeks...
Sorry about the quality I was taking it on my iphone
