To me, if you want to build a gt2 clone, don't get cute when it comes to the wheels.

I hope it's just the FP. I guess it's in limp mode but why?
Turns out I didn't secure the hose connection under the sender unit. Connected it and all is good. I'll still order a higher flow pump and Radium adapter.

In general I'm not a fan of black wheels. They just disappear into the car and make it seem like the tires are just floating

I humbly disagree - I love the GT3 wheels on the Turbo and I also love them in gloss black

That contrast does look very slick.

GT3 style wheels look good in dark grey but I sometimes wish mine were the stock silver.

Both of the above nicely contrast against the paint.

@maxse01 I'm actually just in the process of renovating my garage and this is basically what I want it to look like...

How tall are your ceilings and what are your total dimensions?
