Holy Cow, David! I'm still kicking myself for selling it, but it looks like you've taken care of it and more!

Same engine, suspension, etc? I see it looks like it’s on rails, the window tint is gone, a bigger wing and the revised oil cooler up front.

Let's see the list is longer, but;

Engine is now EFI with a custom intercooler and Garret ball bearing water cooled turbo on a custom header system from RarlyL8 with twin wastegates. Also up to 3.4 litres with Nickies from LN compression up around 8:1 and makes 460 at the wheels on 0.9 bar.

Engine refreshed about 3 times with 50 hours on the current build. Gearbox has been re-geared all but first so it is a close ratio 3 speed more or less with a Guard LSD.

Complete Elephant Racing suspension with essentially everything in their catalogue and MCS 3 way dampers. Nice big StopTech brakes all around.

I got the weight down below 2600 lbs and yes I did away with the multiple oil coolers and have one huge cooler in the front with a front mounted tank. The oil only on really hot days gets to 200F.

Love the car and it still gets lots of attention in the paddock.

Next project,
Cayman with a proper drysump LS7 and a Weddle sequential box with BOSCH Motorsport ABS. Hope to be testing this season.

Thanks for the update. It’s Great that you are on the track where it belongs and over 10 years of wondering about how you and the 930 we’re doing.

Edit: can I buy it back for the selling price? 😂
