Apologies for the iPhone image. GT2RS mirrors just arrived. Contrast color is going to be SICK!

 

How the holy *%^& have I made almost 4,000 posts on this forum and somehow managed to miss this thread entirely! I had no idea this whole time that you were working on this project. Wow.

Absolutely subscribed!! Can't wait to see this thing finished now!

 

I've never seen this thread before and I am glad I just did. :-o

 

You are def going for Thread of the Decade on this one arent you man? hahahahahahahaha

Excited for you and for this car to be completed. Show us more pictures!!!

 

We need moar updates JCay! How much more work remains? Can't wait to see the final product, such a sick build!

 

I wish it was going as swiftly as you guys want it to go! We have about 70% or the parts sourced and ready but rest are taking their sweet time.
More as it happens!

 

JCAY, how about updating a few things i may have once known and forgotten LOL

What color is the car going to be? Will the interior be a "race car" interior or 'nice' like an oem interior? What is the target hp/tq for the motor?

 

Where did you get that rear bumper from? I remember that GT3 style bumper being produced for the first time in '07, but was discontinued. There are "GT3" bumpers out now, but they look terrible in my opinion, the openings being the rear wheels are wayy too large and cartoon looking.

That one is perfection.

 

Matte Silver, with a green contrast color. It's going to be a pretty sparten interior, but it's still going to be nice. No radio (won't be able to hear it anyway). Aircon and Heat, yes.

With all the parts we have already we will be pushing high 400's to the wheels, and well over 500 to the flywheel on BBI's dyno. Real numbers once it's done of course.

This rear bumper is about the the only piece that I have actually received from my supplier. I've ordered 5 other pieces from him. He is dreadfully slow at getting back to me. I'll reveal his info (with caveats about slowness) once I have my stuff form him. I think he is ADD and don't want him getting any more distracted. HAHA.
