Things left acquire are the shifter and the pedal assembly and the limited slip G50 pedal assemblies are non existent or expensive I am money ahead on that also. It all depends on the effort you want to put into it. Even a G50 needs to be broke down to modify it for an easy install and from what I have seen the cost of that is 3500 plus shipping to and from if you dont have someone local that can do it.

I was running the numbers and I think it'd be roughly $15-20k. Probably a bit less if you're able to do all the fab on your own. But I agree, I'd prefer the G96 over the G50.

I flew F-18s for the Marine Corps. I now train F-35 students in the simulators at Miramar. Nice - I don't know how many novels about submarines I've read throughout the years.
