Sweet car, congrats. Any idea if those front brakes work on 18" rims?

Kevin,

Congrats bruddah! Patrick and I were there 3 weeks ago and saw your beautiful TT there in pieces. They were waiting for some parts... Your Turbo R and set up is one of my favorite. Enjoy in great health!

Ruf catalog states "Requires Porsche 18" Techno or 19" RUF wheels. Otherwise "please carefully check the clearances".

Perfect stance. Perfect wheels. Hell, perfect car! Without a doubt one of the best looking cars I've ever seen. Nice Job.

Kevin,

Holy craporamas... you did it! Congratulations... the car is beautiful. a real amazing sight to behold. I have no doubt its performance will exceeed your expectations. Welcome to the esteemed group of serious nitwits... Rufaholics.

Photoshoot? You name the time and place. BTW, the best way to break in that beauty is with a road trip to Dallas... in 3 weeks.

Two thumbs up for the great work, It looks absolutley and Ruf is worth it for the name,reputation and understatted numbers regarding performance modifications. Enjoy it in the best of health, you deserve it.

kevin, I'm really happy for you. as a frequent customer of Ruf in Dallas, it was always cool to see your car being re-done over the last few months. you're really gonna love the way it drives, stops, and photographs when you get it back, I've got no doubt. I've bought and sold and modified cars through them and really love the way they treat their customers, can't wait to hear impressions from a fresh conversion!!!!!!

cheers!

Thanks guys for all the great comments. Glad I could provide some worthy pics for a change instead of drooling over your cars all the time!

Also good know there were so many R-listers checking in on my car while it she was under the knife! What a great family.

I knew Patrick and Tony were out there, but thanks to the others for checking in as well!

Steve let's get together soon. You're as responsible for this as anyone!

CJ, I'll definately report back once i've had some quality seat time.

More pics will be coming over the next few days. Wayne and the crew took additional pics when they were loading the car, which i'll post tomorrow.

Cheers!

Kevin
