I'm mulling over keeping my jalopy a hotrod vs building it in the spirit of a GT3RS.

I'm curious what the readers here would do to an SC to make it more GT3RS-like.
Please discuss.
I think it comes down to what you are looking for. GT3RS performance? GT3RS looks? GT3RS handling?

You know you are looking at 30 years of technological innovation, right?

There is a thread somewhere where someone put a GT3 motor in an aircooled car. It might be worth checking out.

Here is another build worth checking out. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/1040045-check-out-bondo-repair-10.html#post10978467

The thing is, right now. you have a CLASSIC. So that is in of itself very cool. Take your car to a track event or a C&C and you will be surprised how much attention your car gets. So that is a consideration.

As far as performance goes, that is another thing. Now if you want to drive on the track and have GT3 RS performance, you will need a GT3 RS or maybe a turbo. I got a ride in a 09 Turbo at Laguna Seca a couple of years ago and let me tell you it was in a different universe performance wise.

If I was you I would put the loudest mufflers you could stand on and call it good. And perhaps a wide body kit..... After that a motor like the Singers have may be a consideration.
