There as also the BIRA stage two, which is a bit smaller than the big reds,
but still a nice upgrade. It uses Porsche Boxster calipers, Audi A8 (or
maybe S8) rotors.

Definately a front strut brace, and either a stiffer spring/strut combo or
coilovers. You might also want to look up Dan Garza, he runs at Sears
Point, IIRC. You can find him on the 4000 forum over on Quattroworld. Lives
somewhere in that area, and has an Audi Coupe GT full track car.
