Went to see the car for the first time in person today after the paint job and boy was I impressed. Pictures from 3C did no justice to what the car actually looked like. The car had the exhaust, turbos, and headers already removed. I will post more pictures of the progress in the next few days to come.

On a side note, the pictures just can't capture the actual color of the GT3 RS Green. Also the Techart GT Street Wing looks perfect on the car. For some reason in all the Techart promotional pics the wing looks very high. In person its actually not that tall and has a perfect height for the car.

Absolutely unbelievable progress. I doubted how the color would look from the start, but this is surely going to be one of the sickest turbos out there.

That looks real good, hopefully the wheels you finish it off with will do all that hard work justice!

I appreciate it. Everyone has put a lot of hard work and tons of effort to make this car perfect.

Its been about a 5 months project so far. I hope to get it back in about 2 weeks completed. Auto Talent in one day already had most of the turbo upgrade work done.

It would be an honor. There are many very nice fully built turbos out there. The GT3 RS green was my third color choice and I am glad I picked it now.

Thanks bro. I am having such a hard time deciding what wheels I want to put on. Not sure yet if I want 19" or 20"

I have some Brembo Gran Turismo 15" 6 Piston Fronts and 14" 4 Piston Rears in stock 997 GT3 Yellow color. I will put them on after the wheel upgrade as the stock wheels don't clear now. You are right the red calipers and the green color of the car remind me of christmas.

Any thoughts on doing some of the new HRE Monoblok wheels w/ the green pinstripe? I'm a huge fan of what I've seen on some of the MB and P-cars.
