The 3.4 machine is almost done!!

After 33 months off the road, give or take a drive to break in the 3.4, the car is nearly done. I am taking it out on the local PCA drive Saturday morning (early) and then it needs a CB and alignment and a few little details cleaned up!! My scales will show up on wednesday to do the CB.

Car started life as a special order color 84 in Pacific Blue. I had built a warm 3.2 for it then took it off the road/track to build my own idea of what a DE/fun car should be. It has a 3.4 twin plug motor with ITB's that made 285hp at the wheels and weighs about 2225lbs empty!!

Car has 935 style coil over suspension front and rear and Brembo big brakes with a dual adjustable MC. Has a factory LSD too boot! Monoballs in all joints, SRP sways and Elephant racing front 935 strut brace.

Anyways, here are some pics of it today!!!










Cheers

Love the Hargett! Had a Wevo, like this better!

hmmm, engine pics, okay, the build was detailed on the engine rebuild forum. I will dig out some pics.

The wheels are going to be for sale, I will be using two sets of my new 17 inch fuchs for track and street.

On the firewall is the ECU (laptop programable) and the igintion box to fire the coils.

Cheers

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

Yah that pretty much has everything I would want. What is the dash treatment? Alcantara? Where did you source it and how did you install it?

The dash is a custom FG piece I made (I have a mold) and then I covered it in a Alcantare like material. The one piece lower dash is from Rennline.

The Fuchs will make the car!!

Cheers

Nice.

I can't imagine not being able to drive it for so long.
Staring at it must have been killing you.

Killing me? You bet! But the whole time I was working on it so that helps! I got to work on lots of other cool projects at the same time though!

Cheers
