Nice Mike

Missing my GT2 and hopefully in a position to do something with you boys next year again

 

Sold already? Did you get her out to the track before you let her go?

The black looks fantastic. My black 4.0 is a chore, but I love it. What wax do you use?
I use Pinnacle.

 

RSSmike, Very nice & rare black GT3 w/ exceptional upgrades.
RSS products are top notch & I'm considering the Tarmac series of upgrades also.

Does the 4.125 ring/pinion make a big difference in acceleration?
Also, does the LSD have new internals from Guard?

Keep up the posts!

 

Thanks for the kind words Nan,

The Tarmac Series Suspension upgrade makes a significant difference in the overall handling dynamics of the chassis, regardless of stock or aftermarket dampers. Depending on your particular performance goals you can choose between the Tarmac stage 1 or stage 2 package.

The Ring and Pinion really wakes up the car even with the stock gear ratios. There is a noticeable increase in torque and acceleration. The LSD upgrade does have the Guard internals.
