Morning All,
It's been a while since I posted anything here, with work being manic I just haven't found the time. Over the last 18 months, I've been on the fringe of selling my Turbo, with the intention of then pocketing the money and saving for either a GT3 or getting straight into a track ready 964. Having looked about, and tried a couple of cars - I came to the conclusion that I'd have to dig deep to get into what I wanted (i.e. around the £90k+ mark). Having then looked at more affordable cars - I was gaining absolutely nothing on my turbo, but taking on the risk of a car that had no love for years.
I then made the decision that although the turbo isn't the best basis car for me, I'd start the journey of turning into a track / road car and make the most of it - which is what I'm sharing here.
Over the last few months I've fitted cage, seats and harnesses - but made my life easy as follows;
Cage installed using 7/16 Grade 10 Studs - custom machined. This allows the cage to be installed easily - got the idea from the Americans.
Rennline harness mounts installed - for ease of harness removal.
Carbon GT3 replica Seats - from D911 - quality is much better then I expected.
GT2 sub bars
Scroth 6 Point Harnesses
GT3 Brake Ducts fitted
RSS Engine Mounts Fitted
Miltek Exhaust
Other mild mods
Fast Road Geo
Pleased with set up so far, off to Dinslaken this weekend with the crew here, but will be getting to Oulton Park on return to try it out.
Following this next parts will be GT3 Big Reds & Centre Gravity for a suspension overhaul.
It's never going to be a GT3 round the track - but doesn't stop me loving it for what it is!
Some pics!
