12mm spacers are perfect, you could get away with 15mm but it depends on what wheel and tyres your running and what height it is.

I can't ever remember ribbing you Andy... Lol!

In my case I knew the CSL was a keeper and 'unfortunately' the track day bug bit hard hence spending on upgrades.

Like Daz, I would buy select mods second time round having learned the hard way and wasted considerable money on mods which I then changed or removed completely.

If I bought another Csl it would be road use only.

Uprated pads, hoses and fluid
Set of spacers
Enjoy

Mod a standard m3 for track work.

Andy.

It might just be the pics, but your car looks lower on drivers side.?

Get the tape measure out and check. What suspension are you running?

Yep, ridiculous to use bolt-ons on any quick car, let alone one thats the best part of 2 tonnes and heading for the track. That said, can it EVER be a good idea to bolt direct to an ali spacer thats just a few mm thick???? Beyond belief that they appeared on the GT-R, the OP had a lucky escape there!
