Did you convert to center lock hubs? WOW...

Looks great - I'm a sucker for BBS on P-cars, too.

I wish Chris...the wheels are made for center lock or lug and those are simulated center lock covers if you go the lug route....

Looks sweet Chuck. I notice your cup front splitter too. What rollbar do you have? What else have you done the car? Considering regearing mine.

Nelson, it's a tequipment bar that I had powder coated white (of course) Other than Euro GT3 seats and Scroth 6 points, Sharkey flash thats it. Have the CF mirrors coming and that should complete the look...gearing sure would help at the track (while you are in there go with the single mass flywheel too)...there are some threads specific to GT3 gearing on the "other" forum...if you don't have access let me know and I'll pm you the info...

Thanks Chuck, I've also done the cup splitter plus Euro RS buckets, console delete, LWFW/Clutch and Fabspeed muffler bypass for a combined weight reduction of approx. 120lbs. I think the re-gearing with cup LSD and floating hat rotors might be next. Do you recommend anyone in SoCal that can do the gears for me?

Nelson, no personal experience....AASE is in Fullerton 714-992-2283 and Hergesheimer is in Lake Forest 949-458-7223. You might call Steve Alarcon at Johnson's Alignment in Torrance...he is a big time POC racer and will know where you should go for tranny work in socal....310-370-6301. You could also call or PM Arling at Lucent and see what he has to say...Others who have done the gear change with LW flywheel swear that it transforms the cars track performance...some make 5th gear top gear and leave 1st and possibly 2nd and only change 3rd, 4th and 5th (least expensive option)...this saves some money but gives up gas mileage on the road...if you are going to the cup LSD you might as well do the gears to cup spec depending on what LSD ratio you select...Arnold Weber is on the other forum and I see you are too...he runs a cup car at most of the California tracks...you might pm him and find out what LSD ratio he is running and what his gears are...I'm jealous...let me know how it goes....
