I usually spray it down and use the brush about 3-5 times until 99% of debris is gone. So how often should I change fluids in diffs? Shocks? Bearings? ECT? What other cleaning should I do? I have had the car about 3 months now and only driven it about 6 track days. I did change all the fluids, cleaned every bearing, and re-greased the spots the instruction manual said to.

What else?
I usually do a FULL cleaning after every track day.. but im anal As far as the diffs and shocks are concerned I only mess with them when the car starts to not drive like I like it... or once a month if I run every weekend. Bearings should be checked about once a month as well, dont wanna have one go out on you im the a main
