Smile wanting to get into autox need to get in any starter advise

For a long time I have been waiting to get into auto x. Now after driving my bosses M5 I want in what do i need to build a successful car

So far I have the flowing mods so far:
1jz vvti swap going in soon with r154 and kazama short shifter
Front and rear prothane uca lca kit
Ls400 bbk
Front slotted and drilled
rear slotted and rear motors
New front rear wheel breaking
18x10 wheels front a rear
Boyz car zero coilovers
Tanabe front sway bar
Do luck floor cross bar
Do luck strut tower bar

Again this is my dd and will be for along time just want somthing I can take to miller park stadium and act a fool on the weekends what am i missing .

Not really feeling the street racing scene no more here in Milwaukee is pathetic as ever here nothing but hondas on the streets here

what exactly do you want to know?

i autocrossed my 1jzvvti SC and it did very well, except that i have an open diff.

after looking at your list of mods, i'll say GET AN LSD.
i would have picked up multiple seconds on the autox course if i had had an LSD...

you will have too much car for your first autox. just get an LSD, get a good alignment, and learn how to drive.

having a successful car doesnt mean anything if you cant drive it. when i say "drive it" i mean pushing it to the limit of its full potential. invest in seat time at autoX or track. i suggest track days because it offers more seat time. you already have a good amount of upgrades for your car. i tracked my car twice and i only have coils, brakes, and tires
