wait wait.. Performance friction makes floating rotors to fit the front? I thought they made only GT3 offsets? Did you swap out to Gt3/GT2 spindle/uprights?
Please let me know the part#....

Funny you mentioned that as i was just going to ask... I thought GMG set the car up for you? Those arent their toe links, dog bones, etc... right? Did you get your Motons from them?

GMG did not set the car up... they would have been great choice im sure, they were going to but i wanted to drive it some before i did any mods... then once on the east coast hard to send it back to the west... i was impatient i guess! ..

Greg Jones His Company is 3G Motorsports in NC did the work.. Greg is Excellent works with several race teams now and has worked with several others in the past.

yes it has Motons and we took our time setting them up for the track over a long weekend at the track ...

fully adjustable rear he actually machined some of the parts himself.

The Center locks are in prep. for center lock wheels they are motorsport i felt a little stronger

i dont have the part numbers for uprights but they are for 997 cup at motorsports North America.. lowered the car a bit

it holds its own on the track! not the fastest car around the track but a blast to drive
thats all i have to say bout that...

and yes i drive it on street whenever i can and the sun is shining !

Where is 3G located and do they do the "small stuff?" i.e. simple set of coilovers and corner balance? I'm in Hickory and looking for someone...

PF makes the 996GT3/GT2 floating setup, and from what OG Racing told me, they're both the same. That is in the long DIY brake tech thread I started a while back... Not sure about the 997 stuff...
