That's SWEET! What clutch and flywheel are you running?

No carbon engine shroud or tins?
No talk of carbon rotors? I know Hoover is working on some. For this project maybe?

I like the color scheme so far...aside from the engine tins.

Thanks, and we've already got our Stoptech Level 3 BBK in hand :)

Rogelio’s Auto Upholstery in Bladwin Park completely blew us away with the finished product on our seats for the 911. We wanted to do something different, but still classy…

We started with a blank Sparco SPX Carbon seat – then with the rendering we shared previously from Steady Garage (@fransclemente on IG)

https://csfrace.com/wp-content/uploa...27581295_n.jpg

We ended up using a combination of grey alcantara, grey leather (@mooreandgiles), and Goyard bags. About three of the bags were carefully cut and positioned perfectly vertically, horizontally and diagonally across the seat so the pattern always looks correct no matter which way they are viewed.

The first production sample of our ’73 RSR style center oil coolers is here :D These are slightly shorter and more narrow than our current IROC style oil coolers, also the fittings go straight back to clear the front tub.

This one specifically is finished in thermal dispersion space grey coating.

Here is a picture of the engine with engine harness 95% complete, fully installed – just waiting to fit the last few hoses on the car, which we just received from BMRS through Kinsler and Ed Pink Racing.

This is a proprietary hose kit for Ed Pink Racing, which BMRS has done for us in their “pro gold series” with black hoses and their signature gold collars.

I guess we're all competing for 2nd place now. Wowza.

SV builds awesome cars.

CSF Cooling 08-20-2021 02:13 PM

It’s been 2 weeks since our last updates.

The car is now at Santana’s Auto Body in Ontario, CA – it’s been block sanded, all panels have been aligned, and it just finished getting primered.

https://csfrace.com/wp-content/uploa...9497423598.jpg
https://csfrace.com/wp-content/uploa...9497459359.jpg

A little bit more block sanding needs to be done before we shoot the exterior in paint with PPG materials, including “Glamour” clear coat. You’ll have to wait until our YouTube series to see the exterior color.

https://csfrace.com/wp-content/uploa...9497447905.jpg
https://csfrace.com/wp-content/uploa...9497436751.jpg

Along with selecting the exterior paint color, we also were deciding on the underbody and interior panel color. We’ve picked a color that complements the exterior and doesn’t stand out too much, but still draws attention to all of the quality suspension/brake components and the hard parts i.e. exhaust, headers, etc. Part of our marketing plan will include a video of the car on the lift so you can check out and learn more about all of the components that have been installed on the CSF 911.

We should have the car back from paint in the next 2-3 weeks – Stay tuned.

The last piece of the bodywork is the all-metal ducktail decklid.

The car is at Santana’s Auto Body – we spent a few hours there last week finalizing the color and can’t wait to share it with you.

We experimented with Porsche GT Silver (with and without a hint of maroon to tie in the burgundy interior), and also with and without a full Xpel Stealth wrap – not only to protect the paint, but also to add a different look to the vehicle.

…But we decided to go a different direction.

If that car doesn’t put out 1.12 gigawatts I’ll be mighty disappointed.

Showdown 08-27-2021 07:38 PM

The embarrassment is profound.

Goddamn iPhone, screws me again!

If only I had a way to go back in time and correct it.

jpnovak 08-28-2021 07:26 AM

Can you detail, the insert fitted to the rear seat area please?

CSF Cooling 09-20-2021 04:06 PM

More updates to our all-aluminum duckbill. It’s fitted on the car now and the rear decklid cutouts have been completed.

Cool part from our partners at Fabspeed motorsports – a steel muffler brace used on our 991 GT3 titanium exhaust. The 991 exhaust is susceptible to cracking, so our good friends at Fabspeed sent us over this exhaust brace for added strength.

Car is back from paint – we will update more frequently as we just started assembly last week.
