New 40th edition owner!

Hey everyone, new to the community here.
I got really lucky and found an 08’ 40th edition in wonderful shape. Had all maintenance records.. just got new coils and plugs/wires.Racing beat exhaust. Upgraded actuators for radiator. Only 70k miles! I fell in love at first sight. Needless to say she’s going to be my baby forever hopefully. I daily a Nissan Versa so definitely an upgrade when I want to drive. Also the guy gave me his Tein Coilovers with the deal and leftover Idemitsu premix and a quart of oil. I was truly blessed. Any newbie suggestions please do tell.
-Thanks , Jake

I’m probably using the wrong terminology but it keeps the radiator fans on longer to keep the temp down/runs after shut down.

Definitely, I’ve done a fair bit before hand but I’m going to dig through all of that. Thank you!
