Hi rsa,

The wheels are "Speedline for Porsche" wheels, but modified to use a forged - rather than cast - center. In high polish finish. Yes, the caps are reversed from their usual position.

Hi boomboom,

The GT2 was up on the lift precisely because - for about the third time in the last decade - I was contemplating re-installing the original exhaust system. And for the third time, I backed off taking the exhaust back to stock after seeing the titanium system up close.

Crafted in Japan by a specialist fabricator, you can see the labor of love in the welds and the materials. Top tier Japanese work is always a treat, from exhausts to woodwork to swords. Even now, the exhaust looks like new (well - you see that small scruff on the left bottom from my spirited driving). Even the side mufflers - hardly visible - are titanium. And the kit was crafted at a time when titanium exhaust were almost exclusively the province of F1 or similar level cars.

The original GT2 wheels are in magnesium. Close to impossible these days to find a set in case there is damage. One of the projects when I find the time is to measure weights between the stock magnesium set versus the forged ones.
