Garodisk as rear slipper pad and AE HD as front slipper pad
JC Hazard wheels with gold barcodes ground smooth

Also a few pics of my chassis brace. Guy before me made it to keep the belt cover from warping. Seems to keep chassis flex down.

If you replaced them with brand new ?
Doubt you would notice a improvement in performance....
