There aren't many videos of people tracking the old 1.9L Z3, so here's my contribution. The car sits on KW Variant 2 suspension and rolls on OEM BMW Style 30 16x7 wheels mounted with 205/55/16 Maxxis VR1 tires (purchased as old stock, 4-5 years old and $59.95 shipped!). There are aftermarket anti-roll bars from the previous owner, but I'm not sure the details. I have 5mm spacers in front and 10mm in back because I also have some wider tires. The front brakes are from an E46 because the original Z3 came without vented rotors in front or rear (still using solid rotors in the rear). Brake pads are StopTech 309, which is what I use on pretty much every vehicle I own. The 1996 model didn't have factory roll-over protection, so there's a HardDog roll bar, which is where the camera is mounted.
A 1.9L Z3 has about the same performance as NA Miatas, which is perfect for the aspiring track driver. On the used market, they are priced similarly these days, and the BMW is probably better taken care of. Repairs and spares are going to be a little more expensive on the BMW, and you will have to carry more than a 10, 12, 14, and 17 on your socket rail.
