Your new 99 C2 project should be fun and will definitely be worth watching as you SC it.

Are you going to add the "special wiring" on it like you did the other P-car?
Hi Russ,

Thanks for the very kind words.. and sorry for being so busy Just happens like that sometimes... and it's always fun to meet other board members from outside Norcal!

Don't underestimate the powers of the dark side! 2600? Try lower lol... Actually you're likely correct. If we have a cage done eventually that'll put it up a bit...

a gt3R/RSR with full cage and carbon doors, hood, decklid, gutted dash/interior, polycarbonate windows, no mufflers (megaphones) no underbody coating, no sound insulation, no sunroof and AC (of course ) is ~2500lbs.

of course this is with the slightly heavier, and stiffer, gt3/c4/TT chassis. the lighter early 996 c2 chassis can achieve this but be ready to slap down some coin fo rthe CF bits

Here's a few goodies that we're plopping in for phase 1.... Exhaust, headers, pedals, steering wheel (arling has these btw folks), B&M SSK etc...

The suspension set up, brakes, SC and so forth will be arriving shortly but this is good for now:P
