Jarod,

S Car Go has actually been doing a great job. There are things that they simply can't control. Things just keep changing. .............. Besides, I have plenty of other things to keep me busy.

As for the suspension. We will change things one at a time, take it to Infineron for some tests and then change another item. We need to have the car running with the desired power for this.

 

just checking in to say hi!

hope you get this thing done soon

 

rduffyt,

Me too. Haven't spoken with Rob @ S Car Go Racing since Monday. I'll give him a call tomorrow.

 

David,

All the above, a little more but no air jacks.

Brakes that are way lighter and the GT3 Cup ABS/accuator. These Cup parts make the braking about 100 times quicker than the 996 system. This is no exaggeration. The lighter brakes will gain better feel. In addition, the four way JRZ's and the sway bar will be able to be "trimmed" on the fly while entering the turns.

I guess one of the most radical changes will be the front end which will get new uprights/hangers capable of utilizing the GT3R front hubs.

 

Nah, not before the 150,000th view.

 

How many views do you think the picture of me eating a shark werks hat will get? That alone is worth speeding up the project!

 

.....and introducing the hat....



At least this way it will be a win-win situation amoung friends!

 

I just received some very interesting information. One reagrding throttle bodies and the other re seats.

The new 996 GT3 is using a 82 mm TB. Yes, that is 6 mm larger than the 76 mm currently being used on the GT3 and yes we can use it on our 996's. Unfortunately it is not larger than 90 mm so it is no help to KA, but to everyone else your 76 mm TB's are now obsolete.

Regarding seats . The new GT3 racing seats look exactly like the CGT seats and yes they will fit in our 996tt's. It looks like the old GT3 seats are on their way out. These new seats are exactly what I have been looking for. I should have mine in three weeks.

 

Hey, now wait one second. I just received a call from sharkster. What is he eating? .........

 

Chad - is the shiny MAF ready for the masses? Can you tell me a little about it? I'm dieing here waiting for a reliable solution.

 

LOL I'm eating a banana and some key lime pie. I made some Pasta and sat down to watch the Sopranos. I'm all "car'd" out

 

CJV,
Sportec newly designed DUAL TBs specifically designed for high HP 996TT is perfect for your application.

Do you have any information on this intake manifold? We looked at dual TB's but were not able to overcome the fly by wire problems with the accelerator.

 

Chad, I'm hungry for some hats! Are we there yet!?

 

I have spoken to Sportec about this. They use their own cast inlets on the SPR1 car - one for each bank. It uses twin injectors and twin TB's. However, they will not sell these parts! They did offer me an engine for £60k though.
