New to Me GT3
 
7 Attachment(s)
Picked up this white beauty last November in Houston and have been lurking around these forums. This is my second Porsche and my first one was an 04 996.2 GT2, which was truly a wild car and blast to own. Car has great options just missing the LWB's but got a great deal with only 4K miles on it. Just recently did the only mods I plan at this moment, BBi Autosport bypass and some new shoes from Race Tech Forged. The bypass offers great weight reduction has slight more racy tone change and makes the engine sound wonderful above 7K. Jerry from BBi was great to work with glad I chose this Bypass system. :thumbsup:

Here are some photos of the install.

Given your "past" I am really curious to know how you enjoy your present. Enjoy in good health your gorgeous new car.

Thanks, two very different animals. My GT2 was unique and commanded certain type of respect. This newer GT3 is very refined and instilled a bit more confidence and I noticed the car feels considerably more balanced. Have gotten it out on track yet for true comparison but looking forward to comparing my laps times this spring.

Looks great, congrats!

Question, have you noticed any mid range loss with the side deletes? I know there a lot of threads out there about this but I always like to hear what different people feel and think.:)

Thanks

Looks like black LEDs. 2016? More pics please!

mid range loss, if any, is minor.

use only the first 3 gears. until you are on track

3rd gear at WOT will still get you in trouble on the street, trust me I know. :banghead:
