TechArt Noselift Kit installed on SharkWerks 2007 GT3RS
Hey guys, I thought this was an interesting upgrade that many would be interested in. My biggest struggle with driving the RS and other GT3s is probably shared by many others: the car sits low enough that entering/exiting driveways takes a lot of time (sometimes requiring you to stop traffic or risk danger), and the front lip is so easy to destroy in the process. Regardless of your approach angle and speed, sometimes you simply have no choice but to just grit your teeth and listen to the plastic bits be sheered away. The 2010s have an option to solve this, but the 997.1s do not.
Driving the car became a whole lot more practical. When approaching a driveway, you click the button on your home link (near your dome light) and within a few seconds your car is ready to drive in with an extra 2-inches of clearance. We recently had a 750 mile road trip with a stock GT3RS and the nose lift-equipped Kermit. The random gas stations along the Mojave desert, mini-marts for snacks, hotel entrance and so-on were covered with ease on Kermit but were often a challenge with the stock car.
We also had the car hot-lapped by Cort Wagner around Willow Springs for a few hours, and he commented that it actually felt a bit stiffer and settled than the factory GT3 RS that he drives/owns. He observed no adverse effects to having the kit installed (our car is lowered slightly over factory by about 1/2").
For anyone in the Bay that would like to see this in action we can demonstrate it here at the shop.

Been using/driving the car daily with the kit installed and I have to say it's so nice to just not have to worry about driveways/gas stations etc.. Just hit the button and you've got so much more clearance. If anyone in the Bay Area wants a demo let me know.

I'm getting very tempted to do this to my GT3. Scraping on steep driveways (which I have to encounter at my parking garage) is the only thing that keeps me from daily driving it.
How many hours does the install usually take?

It's pretty useful once you get used to it. It's about an 8-9 hour install.
