Isn't there an OEM option to match the RS rear wing as well?

 

That splitter looks very good, but unfortunately its for a 997. There isnt much out there for a 996.

Hopefully I maybe able to get GMG to alter the 996 version for me. I would like the front to extend to approx 3-4", not the 2" that is extends as standard. This it for reference.

 

I agree there aren't many options and most of the ones that are can be destroyed easily or are all CF. The GMG front splitter looks like a good product and is truly a serious splitter/lip combination that controls airflow and reduces lift. It still is an expensive fix, if you get a little to aggressive on a corner or go for a spin in the grass. I tend to side with those who use the Cup Lip for that reason. It's easily replaced (trackside) and doesn't become a budget issue. Not only that it is effective in increasing down force over the Stock lip (not in the same class as GMG).

The reason i showed the 997 splitter is that i wanted to share some of the advancements that i have seen made in splitters developed in the past 5 years. Adjustable for short course or long high speed courses, removable for easy repair of major wear points (the lip). The designer was using his/her head when developing this product and i like to see that type of thought put into good functional designs for performance enhancements.

Absolutely agree with you, definitely wasnt having a go at you for posting a 997 lip in the 996 thread.

If you look at a GT3 Cup S' front under tray & splitter, it also has the adjustability as seen in those photo's on a factory lip/splitter.

I think I will contact GMG & see if they can make some changes for me. As I have no rules to comply with, I'd like the front splitter to extend a little further forward.

 

Go for it! Chuck

 

Thread revival- so what did GMG say?

 

Pretty sure the J3 splitter is the same as this one on Wolf Hensler's WSC cup....

 

Yes. The J3 one is from the World Challenge 996 Cars.

 

no lie!! I had 2 run over by the guy behind me at the track, another can off while exiting a ferry, and a couple more here and there. The 996GT3 splitter IS a disposable item.

 

Unfortunately I havent had a chance to speak to them, after spending 5 months in hospital just after i posted that last comment, my car hasnt really been a high priority.

Hopefully I will be able to look at again after xmas.
