GP White back together Again!
Yet another winter of projects has come to an end and for a change I'm actually finished early!
Owing to the fact I'm practically PC illiterate I never post much especially photos so here goes my little contribution to an excellent forum
Ok how do I add multiple pictures ?! HELP!!

I've had the car for 9 years so it been a constant evolution over the years. The car is a carrera4 originally but after first track day that slope started and ive never reached the bottom yet!!
Basically it's a 3.8 on bodies, with a 6 speed 021 g/box motorsport LSD and 4:1 CWP, accel is paramount!!
Every thing has been changed to monoball cartridges no rubber, RS uprights bump steer kit, front brace kit, gt2/evo front ARB, H&R rear ARB, adjustable drop links ,manual steering rack, RSR shifter(see photo)
The body is all composite panels except the shell, sunroof delete, plastic windows side and rear, turbo arches, twin oil coolers aeroquip hoses and a Heigo cage.
I use the car for hill climbing and trackdays so it's stripped out to suit but still ok on the road!
Probably a few things I've forgot but that's it in a nutshell!

Cheers guys
Car is running a DTA ECU tuned by Wayne Schofield who I've used for a great many years, very good at what he does!!
I've got another engine just amassing the parts to build something better more reliable, the current engine is pretty basic other than capacity increase.

Great stuff. I'm in a similar boat 3.8 on ITBs but still awd - could you please give us your insight into the 993 six speed?
For reliability I chose Mahle 993RS 3.8 P&Cs. What are you running atm?
What hp, torque figures?
Whose your engine builder?

Since changing to 2WD the 6 speed has been awesome but I think that's down to the fact that its the G50/021 as it has a good gear set standard ideal for tracks etc. and since add the new CWP it's made it even better!
The barrels are later style with sealing ring bored out and re coated, pistons are JE. I did all the work myself, gearbox, engine etc.
Power output is very subjective as all dyno's vary but last year on Wayne's dyno's it produced 299.6 rwhp but not sure what torque was?
Got another pic to add since I only seem to be able to do 1 per post!!!

Three Wheelin'
Glad that you've started this, always liked the look of your 964, great to get some more info.
I had issues loading photo's too. I now use PhotoBucket. You can upload all your photos on to it, then when posting on RL, you go to PB, click on the photo you want, then in the the top RH corner a chain link and it gives you the options, click on the second from last option and it gives you the option to save to clip board, do that, then come back to RL and paste the link. Sounds complicated, but is very easy.
Hope that works for you and I haven't miss led you.

As Stuart says, open up a free photobucket account, upload photos and then just copy the IMG links and paste into your posts.
What about the exhaust? Is it below trackday noise levels?

Ok thanks again guys!
Tonight I'll try and do the photobucket thing! And push my PC skills to the limit Ha Ha
The exhaust is a fabspeed system but I had to get the rear box remade as it had a lot of drone at low revs, I believe this has now been addressed. Noise is 100dB when last tested, but I'm looking for a new set of headers.
Well wish me luck into the Breach dear boy etc !!!
