I road raced with my M-21 for quite awhile before I grenaded it at Infineon. I now use an M-22 and love it. Weight and tires are also very important. Shave wait where ever you can. When you buy new component think about what it weights. Toyo RA-1 or R888's tires are the best for the money and can last you quite a long time and can use them on the street. If you are trying to save money you can get away with just buying upper control arms. Everybody has leaf spring choices but I like the Global West springs and I've tried a few different brands. I fit 17x9.5 with 275/40's all the way around with stock subframe, back space is 5.5". Up front you need to cut the inner fender well and roll your fender lip but they fit. A minimum of 2 piston calipers up front with good race pads will get you by until you progress.

Good luck and glad to hear there may be another future track junky.
