Hello:

After nearly 1 year of 964 ownership, i have achieved nearly all the upgrades which i had planned, thought about when i purchased my car:

H&R damper and springs.
4 pot calipers all round.
Rs interior. App Biz
17" RH wheels.
Toyo 888.
Gt3 leather seats.
Rs doors.
Heigo half Roll cage.
Sunroof delete.
Cat bypass.
Cup pipe.
K&N filter.
Steve wong chip.
Rear wiper delete.
Carbon fibre heater bypass.
Carbon fibre air intake.
Spare wheel...delete
Trunk carpet delete.
Front struts bar.
RS set up.
Top and bottom Rebuilt engine ( less than 3000 kms since done)
Rebuilt gearbox with:
New Lightweight flywheel.
New RS clutch
Limited sleep diferential ( stock)


I am enjoying the car basically on track and I am extremeley happy with the above,my priorities during the first year of ownership was weight reduction an I think I have achieved this. I have many doubts on what to do next, my goals are to have a still usable on street car basically to take me to the track with comfort with Air Con and Radio, with and aesthetic function so that I can look at it with pride and of course being fast, close to gt3's. For the second year of ownership I have many doubts on what upgrades I should do, I would list the ones I think would give me more benefits and would like your opinion and advise:


1) Increase BHP to 330 via Motec 9M upgrade.

2) Continue weight reduction to achieve 1150/1170 kgs hrough doors,boonet and other in Carbon.

3) Shorten 3rd, 4th and 5th gear ratios to reduce gap between gears, improving acceleration and track performance. Finding a good 6 gear is ifficult and very expensive.

4) Do nothing and concentrate to enjoy the car and improve my driving..

5) Any other ideas.



Thanks to all, hope to get some light.

My 2c - I would do bonnet in carbon but not doors. I like the added safetly factor of steel

Re-gearing the car makes it so much more enjoyable to drive. I have done this once and would definitely do it again.

" spare wheel... delete" - how was this achieved ? Was it just removal of spare or something else was used to maintain structural rigidity of trunk's floor (crash worthiness) which the spare is a part of?

My guess, it was just a delete

Hi:

I don't have pics this days as I am on holidays and using blackberry to connect.. I promise to do when i am back.

The process on the sunroof was to weld the metal, fill the gaps with some painter material and paint it same colour as rest. On the inner side basically empty everything under the steel, incluidng rails, electric engine, some wires and not much else, now the roof is bareshell and we will laminate it with black lightweight carpet to give it a decent look...

Apologise for my english, the sparewheel delete, i mean removal, simple.

Any ideas on what to do next?

Bye
