Up for sale is my 2002 GMG 3.8L WC Turbo. I’ve only had the car 6 months and had intended to take the roll bar out and install seats in back so I can do a bit of DD with the car, but it is so well put together I’ve been advised by many to leave it in the GT2 config. In parallel, I had been trying to pick up a new GT350R but as we know those allocations don’t come around very often… well I got the call and my car comes off the line in a few weeks. Sacrilege but one of the first bods is rear-seat install!

More pictures to follow, but let me know if there is a specific view you need.

The car is beautiful and in excellent shape both inside and out. The whole front is clear coated as which looks excellent except for some slight blemish on front of the nose (see picture). Windshield was also clear coated but I removed that last month when I installed new windshield wipers. There is a scratch from what looks like a cat near the rear passenger window. It might be buffable, but I have not had a chance to address.

It drives fantastic- the Motons are adjustable from soft to stiff. There are no odd noises from car/suspension/brakes, just the turbo spool and grunt of the built 3.8L.

GMG exhaust is aggressive so previous owner had some spool inserts made post X-pipe. They are easy to install/remove. Car sounds incredible without them and quite civil with. I currently have them in, but one bolt and the pipe slides off to remove them spools. Passed CA smog Aug 2016 with OEM unit (included with sale) and it passed OR Smog with GMG unit.

GMG wheels look amazing and were purpose built for this car. They have decent NT01 tires in GT2 size with no rubbing and really set this car off.
Currently has the Aero lip but I also have a new in box Turbo lip should you want to go that route.

Car will also come with a set of Silver Turbo twists (with caps) with very good Continental Extreme Contact. Wheels are in decent condition and with spacers (8/15) look really good.

All speakers have been upgraded including the subs in the Bose box, just a cleaner sound then OEM not basey at all- must be from the insulation that was added.

Interior is extremely nice including the newer GT3 Euro seats and all of the carbon fiber. Cup holders and all storage bins work perfect.
Spares: Turbo twists with Conti tires, Turbo front lip, GMG headers (OEM installed), front Stoptech rotors, used pads, GIAC hand-held programmer, new JoeToth front Splitter, maybe others- need to look in my trailer.

I have the history back to 2006, but for the most part it was all reset during the GMG build in 2012 at 49k miles. Previous owner did all the work and here is most of the build thread from GMG: https://rennlist.com/forums/996-turb...onversion.html
Since then the PO also installed a GT2 tranny (no front drive or diff) and had the LSD installed.

Appreciate the inquiry- I'm picking up the new GT shortly so no trades needed right now. Perhaps a future Tesla however-

Beautiful build. I'm curious, why did you go back to the factory headers, when you have these beautiful GMG pieces?

Thanks G50!
I think they hung down a bit lower than OEM and they have a few scuffs. I've read a few times that the OEM headers are quite good and this car certainly doesn't lack power.
