Matteo, looking really good!!!

Any chance you can snap a pic of how they adapted the cable throttle linkage of the ITB's to the "rod" linkage of the car??

Cheers

the motor is like 700 miles away. I think Timmins will do that when the actual car is there with him.
I plan to drive up sometimes in January. That way he'll have 2 months to tune the thing and get it ready for the track season in March.

PS
I will contact you soon for a set of Kodiak 18's for the Comp tires.

Matteo I see you are utilizing a distributor, that is why I asked what you were using for ignition. I am also using the Motec M600 but I went with the M&W CDI for ignition and M&W double ended coils. Looking good, it will be interesting to see the numbers you get from your NA lightweight beastie.

OH Schnele I completely missed your question... sorry!!!

OK basically it is a stock 993 engine with some mods.
Of non stock there is:
- Ti springs
- Ti retainers
- Ti RS Valves
- 45mm ported heads
- 3.9l P&C
- Carrillo rods
- DC 62 cams
- RS pulley
- GT3 oil pump (I think... we specced the motor in February)
- Jenvey Induction
- Motec ECU

So all the rest of the components are stock 993 (case, crank, dist etc)

I would be happy with 370-380 hp at the crank. I think we can spin it to 7,500-7,700 with no problem. And the DC-62 are just sweet up there...
The capacity should give us enough torque to reach 375hp. If it is less it does not matter... I am still beyond the GT3RS power to weight ratio... :D

Matteo

I am loving your updates.

When do we get to see the pics of the painted shell??

amazing car and project! Definately subscribing!

Matteo, my geography sucks, did not realize the motor was not closer to you!! At any rate, can't wait to see the pics, your car is smoking!!

Contact me anytime about wheels, no rush at all.

Cheers

Ha! About that.. I waited 3 months for this day... then I forgot the memory card of the camera in the media slot at home...

Anyway i will go to the shop next week and get a lot of pics...
Sorry!

Your first test run is gonna be interesting...

Finally I managed to take some pictures of the car as it is right now.

It looks like the buys at Zuffenhaus will be able to start working on it from tomorrow.

Let's say they have been quite busy on another crazy project....
