V12V personalisation project
I love my V12V but always like to tinker and make things my own so I started with some tasteful modifications.
I wanted to make the car feel a little rawer, a little noisier, a little more race inspired and at the same time lose a decent amount of weight from the car to add to the overall experience.
So I have removed the secondary cats which makes the car sound great from the cabin.
I have just ordered some lightweight BC Forged wheels which will be shod in Michelin Pilot Supersports.
The plan now will be to focus on the weight saving and items within the interior to add to the feeling of a track type car.
Things on the to do list:
Lightweight battery
Quality Lexan rear and quarter windows
Carbon front grille V12VS
Alcantara Gear ****
Carbon door tops and entry sills
Titanium wheel nuts
Custom Carbon Induction setup
Potentials list
Lighter Exhaust
Primary 100 cell cats
Manifolds
I would welcome any suggestions for weight saving!

Don't know what type of seats you have (europe had a light weight seat available which they didn't offer in the states) but if you have the standard seats, replacing them with racing seats would cut weight. Also, throwing in a 5pt harness would help add to the track car feel. Be sure to post pics of the progress.

Unfortunately they do not have harness guides though!

You are thinking DBS? my car has no rear seats. Also Ceramic brakes as standard!
