Very true. I should have said something like it is finally ready to hit the track and do some real world testing. In fact, I alreafy have the next stage plannrd out for the car. Motec standalone, flex fuel and aero improvents are the next things I will be working on.
Maybe a bit weight reduction?
Yes weight reduction was one of my priorities too. I will list you the mods that are contributing to reducing weight: Rear seats delete Audio system delete (includes head u nit, speakers, wirings and satellite radio.) Air conditioner delete XS15K lithium battery (32lbs lighter than OEM) Lighterfaster carbon fiber sunroof delete kit (sunroof glass, rails, motor, drains are all gone) Recaro Sporster CS seats Ksport 2 piece rotors and forged calipers Aluminum front lower control arms and spindles Seibon carbon fiber hood and rear hatch Volk Racing ZE40 rims (weight just under 20 lbs even its at the sizr of 19x10) TTV Racing single mass DSG flywheel (10lbs lighter than OEM dual mass flywheel) Titanium downpipe back exhaust
You can tell from the picture that the interior isnt stripped, because i want to keep the interior clean but there are still many signs of weight reduction like the Porsche GT3RS.
Very soon the suspension will be properly dialed in for road course and corner balanced. By then i should get a clear number how much the car weighs now.
Feel free to check out my previous posts. I covered most of the mods i listed.
