A Classic SharkWerks 996TT Project: GT660, HRE MonoBlok's and TechArt Type1 Hey fellas, thought I'd share some pix of a 996TT GT660 project we finished today for a chap in Wisconsin, with Bilstein coil overs, 19" P43 HRE Monoblok's, a stage II
clutch kit and the TechArt Type 1 kit (which I can't remember doing in a while).
First thing's first, off with the transmission, stock clutch assembly and in with the beefier stage II. That's about the limit for the Sachs 999. After that you have to go
to a level 3 style clutch, which isn't quite as "stock" in terms of engagement/feel.
With the DV's, fuel kit (fuel rails and injectors) already inplace on go the GT28 turbos, EVO headers etc...
Pretty nifty exhaust-side and obviously the Bilstein coil overs are already on...
On go the EVO boost hoses (black to stay stock-looking), the MillTek Exhaust, V-Flow intake and Hitachi conversion.
The TechArt side skirts fit/install a lot easier on the 996TT's than they do on the 997TT's and here's a nice side-profile (I'd always go authentic on these folks) along
with some 19 inch HRE P43 Monoblok's.
On goes the TechArt Type 1 front lip, which is actually not something we've done very often (usually the GT Street or GT2 bumper) but it's really grown on me...

A few final touches with a 5hp plate holder and the pedal kit...
And away she goes on the transport back to Wisconsin.
The cool thing was that the very same transport was delivering this to us too:
It was also carrying one of these which you don't see everday

Sharky, in the fifth picture titled "On go the EVO boost hoses (black to stay stock-looking), the MillTek Exhaust, V-Flow intake and Hitachi conversion." there is an amazing car parked on the left, its grey i guess, can we see more pics of that car as well?

Hey 911S, I think that's Karlooz's street-turned-race car? It's a gutted 996, with a full cage etc... and gets tracked all the time. I'll try and find some more.

Nice....no issues with the pss9's at that height? I was thinking about going a little bit lower. Im at 30mm lower than stock right now.
