Sameer, on the GT3 are those BBS wheels? If so, what style and are they widely available or special order. Thanks.

Wow....totally awesome...totaly awesome pics....I think I just finally found a cure for the common cold - what better way to brighten up a "blah" weekend!

I love the side by side...nothing wrong with some sexy old school cosying-up next to a bit of new school.

Sameer - Looks like some real high end machinery in that last pic, of course the 6series really stands out.

I was in Singapore a few moons ago and completely enjoyed my three week stint, and there really are some impressive cars there, but I always wanted to know, with such a small geographical layout, where can you really open-up such high hp cars such as yours and your friend's GT3?

(This is my first post on Rennlist after a long time lurking, but definately worthy of my first post! Just bought an '89 930, which I am going to share with everyone soon.)

Yasin,
Welcome to the club. Post some pics of your ride. The 930 is a lovely car and can be dangerously quick if done up correctly and maintained well. However be carefull, it can and will bite back if you dont show it respect. Roads here are lovely but pity they are pretty strict with speeding.

blackboy,
Yup those are original Magnesium 3 piece BBS wheels which I think costed my friend just about US$7-8k. I'm gonna get those rims some day.

Thanks for the welcome Sameer. I will definately post some pics of my "new" 930 this weekend, and in the meantime your great pics found their way as my new wallpaper at work AND at the house!

Sameer-

Nice pics of some very nice rides! Is it just a coincidence that your "beast" of a car has a "666" license plate?

Jeff,

I bid $2k for that number and was lucky enough to get it. I'll be able to tranfer it to my next ride for a small fee.

Sameer, are the side mirrors on your yellow beauty by Ruf ?. If so, would you or anyone else out there know if they are street legal here in the states. Thanks.

blackboy,

Yup its from Ruf and also from the Porsche 934 race car. Not to sure abt the rules in the US but I can tell you that the passengers side is useless. Can hardly see the driver in the next lane.

Sameer -

Awesome car. Who did you source the RSR fenders from? I had a track incident this past weekend and need to replace my rears and was contemplating doing a RSR clone. What are you thoughts on quality and material?

Thanks

Got the front Ruf bumper from MASHAW and the rear from Ruf but I told Ruf I dont want any slots. I wanted to look clean. It's same as the rsr rear bumper. In my opinion, get your stuff from either Getty or MASHAW. I think fibreglass would be easier to work on and is cheaper. However if I were to replace my front bonet, it would be CF.

Rob,
I'm sorry did you mean bumpers or fenders? My fenders are stock 930 fenders.

Actually both. Is the front bumper a new addition with the paint or have you had it? Any opinion on durability with clearance issues?
