here are shots of the engine build. if you look close, you will see the shuffle pins, boat tailing on the case halves, knife edging on crank, cross drilled and groved crank and the dual pick up on hte rsr oil pump.

here are some more of the motor, the head studs, and sport tec air box. these were the pistons that were reused the first go around and cause of all my grief...the second time had brand new gt2 pistons.

these are pics of the tranny. you can see the oil cooler that is a callage of the best gt2, rsr, and gt3 parts of the last 10 years. you can see i had to get a new case half. i also have the rsr main shaft, synchros, shift forks, and gears. i have the rsr hiemed shift linkage as well. i omitted the LS due to being warned of problems when used with the awd that i kept, otherwise i would have the Guard LS.

here are a couple pics of the rims being built. i only had to use weights on 1 rim...the rest balanced perfect! these are the rsr motorsport rims with the magnesium centers.
the centers are satin, and the lips are glossy.

last but not least, the erp suspension. i have everything he makes, short of the centerlock uprights.
there is NO rubber in the car, except for the tires and hoses! LOL
i have all the solid bushings, and hiem jointed control arms, camber plates, and drop links, the gt3 rsr subframes with the racing pick up points for the suspension.
the ride is perfect, and response is better than crisp...PERFECT!
i have the JRZ 3 way coilovers, what the gt3 rsr uses!
you can also see the 8 piston brembo BBK with 15" rotors.

You sure do
. The roof looks very nice along with the hood. How is the roof attached, some type of adhesive?
