997GT2RS Arrives @ SharkWerks for a few goodies

This white 2011 997 GT2RS came into us for a few goodies. Since the owner intends to daily drive the car he opted for the TechArt Noselift system to help make life easier navigating in and out of steep driveways. The GT2RS sits low enough that entering/exiting driveways takes a lot of time 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 GT3s have an option to solve this from the factory, but the GT2RS doesn't.

In she comes:


Up she goes:


Off comes the factory suspension.


The TechArt Noselift hydraulic spring and assembly is installed back into the car:


The necessary lines are also run and installed underneath:


The front trunk area disassembled to allow for the controller/wiring harness to be installed:


The new battery tray is installed with the TechArt pump & controller:


Filling the system with hydraulic fluid:


Then the switch is installed into the interior:


Ready to go home:




A quick video demonstration:

The entire car was wrapped by Premier in their Satin Guard film and she'll be coming back for a few more goodies shortly:

Wow

Alex, amazing you guys can knock that out in one day. Love that car in white, only good color with the blacked out hood IMO. Saw a red one here in Houston and looked great, but the white is hands down classic Porsche. What else will you do to a car like this?

Aw thanks and well... there's not too much to touch you're right. We're mostly prepping it for track-work. Harnesses, our FE kit etc...
