3.9 RSR project --- my Carrera reborn

[CBRacerX]

Change oil every month! Wow - that is a great maint schedule

P.S. it is still a lot easier than the tank filter on the "real" 993 - ask the man who owns one.

[quattrorunner]

I meant evry other month "or so".

I see an Excellence article in your future.

I visit this forum daily and by some unbelievable misfortune I didn't notice this tread until today. This is an awesome project.

You are living the dream. Keep us posted.

OK I have got the pics of the powder coated tub.

I apologize for the darkness and the use of the flash. The car was stored in a dark corner of the shop.

It will be moved in the next couple pf days to get sanded and primed.

Then painted and back to Zuffenhaus for the re-assembling...

OK, we have Clinton (who has surely already hit it), and Dole (who has been selling Viagra -- maybe to Clinton). So far, a nic bipartisan sexual confab...

Who is the other guy?

I am surprised though that they could not fix youre shell, since the dammage does not look bad at all. When you consider some wrecked cars that get repaired
and repaired well at that. I Just hope the mechanic is not being a wuss by not fixing the shell and costing you more $$$. Second opinion would be a good idea but it looks like youre pretty committed your mechanic.

If you can I would really apreciate some pics of the torsion tube cut and reinforcing of that area since I am also planing on going with a G50 also.

Are you going to shorten the bell housing or just try to squeeze it in there?

Now is youre chance to change colors, so whats it going to be?

Flavah Flave say OWWWWWWW!!!!! sick,man. Why are you cutting the torque tube as opposed to using a short bell housing G50 and kevalr clutch, etc? Will that not work with the 6 speed box?

Beautiful project teo - I wish I had the means .

disclaimer * not in any way meant to be insincere.

There is no way my old project could hyjack this thread, but I have to post one or two pics since the color was similar. I media blasted (plastic) the tub after lots of work, but never got brave enough to powder coat it. Great job can't wait to see the next phase!
