Default 991.2 GT3 RS MR

Thought I'd post this since there are no official picks up yet on Manthey's website.

Wet Ring lap with the master:

Indeed. Recaro P1300. Same seat in our Cups. Wish Porsche would offer the same fit for the street.

He has a bunch of videos out there driving both yellow and green 3RS's. Most are in stock car, not in the Manthey version. The one you posted looks like it was shot on the same day.

Not just one but two! Baller. And you have the Ti roll bar.

Any other mods to the car?

Now can anyone tell me what's going on with those tailpipes? They look like they're blocked off.

Holy smokes... there's more in those seats than most people have in their whole cars.

Jokes aside, this really IS the best seat money can buy (without subjecting your road car to crazy tub mods). Be sure to get the right size Recaro padding kit for a great fit!

How do the rails mount to the tub? Did you have to cut out the OEM carpet?

They had to use them that day for noise regulations (if my memory serves me right).

So The Ring has noise limits as well and stock RS doesn't pass? Or is it just because Kevin really does drive flat out??

What are they exactly - block-offs, turn-downs, added muffler in tips?

The right pads are very important for sure! You donīt have to cut out the carpet. On the driver side everything works perfect. Unfortunately there is no separate flexible sidemount for the passenger side. So you have to remove the lever for the length adjustment because there is not enough space for it. But I donīt care that itīs fix.

The car has a few more Manthey upgrades like brake lines, brake pads, brake fluid, brake calibers in black, lithium battery, VBOX installation without any visible cables, PPF on the whole car, suspension setup, ......

Wonder what brake pad they are using? I am sure there is some exhaust work?

Manthey has its own Pagid brake pad mixture for the steal und PCCB brake. So they recommend them. Last year they recommended Endless brake pads for the PCCB. But they and myself found out that the Endless ones wear the brake discs too fast. The Pagids are way more disc friendly.
