Default Re: Trackrat's GT3RS Project

Just had a phenomenal day at Reno Fernley Raceway, C Config (includes "The Peanut"!) testing all the project mods. RaceTech halo seat didn't make it into the car. I just could not get a fit I was happy with and popped the OE seats back in. Can't believe the transformation to the car The Intrax coilovers were superb out of the box. Response and driving dynamics were razor sharp.

The OE suspension is great but this is on another planet. Due to the bumpy track I softened the rear shocks compression and rebound a bit but otherwise it was great. Front sway was on middle hole, rear blade was 2 back from full stiff.

Very neutral everywhere: fast, slow, bumpy, smooth. Throttle steer was very responsive.

Of course the Akrapovic Race exhaust config was intoxicating especially at 8400 rpm.

Video later, here are some pics.

This was a SCCA TT and PDX day. High-Desert tracking at its finest, look at that elevation change of the track! Enjoy...
