They are Champion RG5's painted black. The owner is currently having another set of Champions (IIRC) in flat black being mounted up with track tires as we speak. That is going to look pretty mean I think.
It had Kinesis rims on it, but when we put the Brembo big brake kit on, the valve stems (they came from the center of the rim) didn't clear the calipers (glad I spun the wheel before letting it down off the lift!).

I'm about to send mine off to the coater and wouldn't mind seeing that flat v. one that are on the car.Those GT3 seats look killer as does the rest of the car.

I'm lucky today! I just scored me some great 997 GT3 seats, fresh from germany with a complete CF shell and a porsche emblem stamped in em! I can't wait to get them in... I picked one up, they have to be around 20-25lbs with the hardware on them!
... catch... I'm now on a starvation diet now... I must lose 20lbs to fit my fat *** in them!

You are going all out. Both you and your car are going on a diet. I was 260, now 240, going to 220 so my fat *** will fit in GT3 seats. Once Kevin's turbos show up I'm going to need them.
I assume, like most GT3 seats, they don't fold for access to the back and also aren't heated??

Hey Seth,

The car so far:
- Fixed CF wing (no wing moving stuff)
- CF Hood
- Removed rear seats, rear seat belts
- Removed rear wiper and motor
- Removed bass (sub?) cabinet (around 30lbs right there)
- Has the PCCB's which are good for 30-40lbs per corner
- HRE 545R's on each corner (nice and light).
- GT3 The seats... gotta be good for 80lbs.
Things that make it heavier
- Roll bar
- Europipe (might weigh similar to stock, but it is heavy).
I'm at 250, need to get to 220-230 (would prefer to be at my sexy weight of 205).
Seth.

I wrote it that way so it would sound disturbing! Next time I will write "big dick swinging 997 gt3 seats"... Its not like I wrote anything like "its just a guy helping a guy" or "what goes on in the change room stays in the change room"

), I really just have to do a bit of cardio and pump some iron and I will transform pretty quickly. I've done it a few times, it's not so bad.Seth.

This attempt to explain it is also disturbing.

Hehehe... I'm 5'11.. I big all around, I used to body build when I lived in Canada (not at a pro level, but the same way the pro's do it ), I really just have to do a bit of cardio and pump some iron and I will transform pretty quickly. I've done it a few times, it's not so bad.

It's good to laugh, even at yourself, every now and then. Thanks for making my day.
p.s.
I'm the 6' 205lb old guy!!
