Been thinking about taking the nose panel off and going with a 944 GTP setup but am unsure if the hood scoop will look A-OK. Be safe.. have fun. and Happy Easter Everyone!!

Hey no disrespect intended. Your car looks great and clean. Nice colour too. Judging from the pic you don't have a large lift angle on the hood at the windscreen side. See the pic of Corleone's car from Sweden. He has a noticeably lifted hood. Even so, this in itself won't create an uninterrupted flow of air from the nose to the rear of the engine bay and out the hood. That's why he also has hood vents. Although his car has been dyno'd at 563whp so it's highly important for him to clear as much hot air out as possible.

Hey Paddy, well that's actually my nickname being a Patrick so perhaps we do go back somewhere? Not surprised that your car has won prizes. Seriously amazing in the pics. Nice work.
I had D9 lights on my old Grey car (until I crashed it.
) they will go onto the new Black one with the D9 hood vents after a bit of TLC.
Sorry to indulge. Saddens me when I see pics of the old car. So much time and money (Blood, sweat and tears) was put into that car.
Luckily we were able to salvage 99% of the mechanicals and transfer them into this '86 Black one. So it has all the race suspension and late offset arms etc and I can use all my wheels and tyres that I'd built up. They're 18"x10" all round with 275mm Nitto NTO1s. Good tyre.
GT3076 and front mount intercooler etc...
Lastly, sorry about any thread hijack. Guess I just got inspired by the 2 beauties shown above!
