The car has been blowing blue smoke for awhile and its getting worse which is worrying me, as of what it could be, valve seals or piston rings, deciding what to do with it after track day. Hoping that its the seals, but we'll just have to wait and see.
Not looking good, and bug bucks to fix
Good luck for winton, I miss this one

octane booster give you no performance increase (dyno proven on a FTO I read a long time ago) if your engine does not support it, putting 98 in our car which is designed for 91 is usless, except for cleaning the engine. My car has been tuned to use 98, but guess how many kw I gain, 3kw at peak
Unless your engine is desiged for checking the octane level (such as the golf gti), no performance increase at all, the following 2 videos say it.. actually
using octane booster will drop power by 2%
before reset the ecu, make sure you know your audio security code, disconnect the battery for 20 minutes, reset the audio security code
I don't know why your exhaust will take away any torque, no torque should be lost across the whole rpm range
Read the following, it includes torque graph as well
http://www.importtun...10_mazda_3_atx/
Our car should yield similar result, if you are losing torque, there might be leaking in your exhaust

is this car new?

use this http://www.torquesta...?pid=calculator
exhaust will have only 4kw increase at the wheel
If you want to be faster, use a light wheel, 16 or 17.. wheel does make

Take off all your seat, and use 1/4 of fuel, they should make another 0.1 or 0.2
Shifting from 2nd to 3rd lost so much time, keep practising it
For the exhaust , another memeber has done a dyno before and after a cat back (dutchie101), no evidence to prove that the torque has been lost

My next rotor is plain as well as the slotted one does not seem to have performance improvement, eating my pads and more expensive, thus the above article also recommened it

I like it, very clean, there are some rust in the engine bay.. if u don't mind you polish you engine to look good. Pod filter is dirty as well, please clean it.
Please also chrome the bumper to make it shinny, I also would want to put back some badge at the back
I like classic car to have chrome everywhere
-

time to winton to set some lap time
-
what did you do to wax your car? red car , after waxing, looks really shinny

no cost at all, if they charge you cost, then it is not comparison rate..
Comparison rate includes all fees and cost
NO FEES SHOULD BE CHARGED
-
it is by law in nsw that when you have a mortgage (house or car) to have comparison rate listed. Bank like to charge fees to deceive people. Comparsion rate is the real interest rate including all the fees
-
defintely not relate to engine, otherwise CEL will throw
I think some sensors is broken. Toyota should be able to diagnoise, they are just being lazy
I got a OBD2 reader, but it only read CEL, which is not your case

Just for safety, please upgrade your brake pad first before going to your first track day, the factory pad is pretty ****ty, I use Remsa, you can order from GSL rallsport in queensland..
Change your tyres as well to a better one would be better
