(Subject to change on jakes discretion). basically the deal is to let Jake build what he wants, with whats available. Soooo excited. Of course a littler nervous because of the money... I just want a screamer. MY version of a GT3.

Cool; is it an elective build or did the engine fail?

I will get both this weekend! Already thinking of the next steps with this car. I am between wheels, suspension, or front end respray/detail/clear bra. I actually like the lobsters and am struggling to find something I really like more for less than $10k. I have had a slight vibration since I have owned the car so a full suspension refresh with some B16s paired to my DSC would hopefully fix that (unless it is the wheels). It is a black car with 60k and I track it so the front end is stone chip city, which does bother me a little, but I still plan to treat it as a “driver”. Ugh decisions!!!

Front end refresh with B16 will probably be 8k plus suspension parts, about 5-6k. You're car will be brand new. Plus you'll have some fun projects.

Yeah, eventually I will do it all, just have to decide what comes first. I doubt the wife will let me drop another $14k on the 911 so soon, but I could probably get away with $6-7k

In that case, I'd probably do as much suspension as I could.

Well with 4” of snow coming next week my time might be coming to an end. They put brine down already, typically I would have been done a while ago, but I want to get a couple of data logs and get them back to Jake and Jud so we can move forward on more tuning. I will get a video or two this weekend, then probably run it to the car wash and that might be it for a while 😞.
