Read through your thread but couldn't see what spec the suspension is on the car.
What shocks/springs are you running? Have you polly bushed the car?
From the pics above the car isn't rolling that badly, look at the nissan behind you!
To be honest as it was your first time on track there will be seconds to find in yourself before you even begin to search for more power, get back out there as soon as you can and you will be amazed a the time you can find.

thanks for your interest. I believe it has hot bits coilovers, they were in there when I bought it. And the bushes are all original afaik.

Yes I agree, I'm not spending any money on performance when all it takes to reduces my lap times in practice and a few suspension tweaks

Found this photo of me and my competition


Swapped over my steering wheel today, thanks to Colin for the wheel.

Surely you could have beaten that crappy old RX-7!! LOL. Was it the real deal Group C unit?
Good luck with the car, its looking great in the tack. You might want to look at all your bushes and some high quality suspension as well. Koni or Bilstein etc.
Save up for a 16v motor work it really hard and drop in in once you have got the car/yourself as quick as you can
