- If you install a full cage that's going to add weight
- You will definitely need some bigger brakes as the standard 334mm are not big enought even with harder pads, so 4 or even 6 pots and bigger disc will be mandatory and will add (unsprung)weight (expensive)
- You will be needing bespoke springs and shocks (expensive)
- LSD will be needed (expensive)
- Oh and I don't think you will get very far with the OE 766 "slush" transmission (expensive)

The electric seats in these things weight a stupid amount. Nice bit of gain from adding some nice light weight buckets.
Brakes will be fine as long as your not doing 20 laps in a row.
Suspension just needs to have thicker away bars (front from the clk55)
With these mods you'll have fun! No you won't be killing a new gtr...
