I would change that to:
driver = 60%
tires = 30%
Everything else = 10% (doesn't matter much where you spend the money).

Smartest thing is to spend the money according to that list too....60% into driving events/schools etc, 30% tire budget, maybe add pads and other expendables, 10% spent on all the issues that crop up...power, suspension etc..

And torsen diffs don't really offer any advantages...If you get one wheel into the air somehow its back to open diff mode.. Difficult to find and expensive too, so dont spend much time looking for one.


good advice.
Also, a good alignment and brake pads should be up there as well. All new suspension bushings is another good path to take.
I would avoid being a rush to buy a bunch of expensive suspension units that are easily recommended with out reason or specifics. Hold up on that until you know what it is you want changed and by how much. Just throwing on random suspesnion parts with out an understanding of how it all works together is a sure fire way to making your car handle like crap.(which laughably is more often then not the case among 'tuner street cars' *giggles*)
