Track brake pads
Camber plates
Dedicated wheels and tires (square setup to allow rotation)

They are listed in order of importance for me. All the rest of the car is stock. I decided to rather focus on upgrading the part of the car that needs the most improving, the one between the seat and the steering wheel .
This makes me feel like I did my homework...

I had the M3 on track for the first time at the end of August (tracked my 335i last year at Summit Point (Jefferson)) at NJMP Lightning. Beforehand I tended to the brakes - motul 600, goodridge braided lines and Pagid RS-19/RS-7. That track is pretty rough on left fronts (swapped my PSSes right to left to even out wear on day 2)...

Got home and bought GC camber plates and Apex ARC-8s with AD08s (265 square).

Going back to Lightning in October - absolutely cannot wait to see the difference!

So much excellent advice in this thread
