FarnbacherLoles upgrade package
Just saw a blur on their site:
"At the 12 Hours of Sebring, Yokohama Tire featured our latest project Porsche: the GT3S is a performance upgrade package to the 997 GT3 street car. The "S" package contains major upgrades to the suspension and brakes incorporating Cup car components to turn your GT3 into an even better track car. A unique carbon fiber splitter with integrated underside fins plus an adjustable carbon fiber rear wing with a built in Gurney lip add functionality and visual excitement. To pre-order your components, call 203.798.2929"

Anybody have more info? Non PASM dampers generally requires some tweaking to the ECU to get rid of the idiot light. Hope my dealer will do that for me.

For a package advertised as it is, there should be some track testing (preferably independent). Maybe GT3 vs. RS vs. FarnbacherLoles GT3 "S". The RS should only be around a second faster than the GT3 on a 2 minute track. If their car is a second or more faster than an RS, it would be a good selling point. Of course all cars should be properly aligned (not factory alignment) to show the worth of the parts you have to buy.

I saw the project GT3S car yesterday at Farnbacher. Nicely done. The exact details of the upgrades are still being worked out, but, looks like lots of Cup Car parts have migrated onto the GT3. They will be testing at the Glen in 2 weeks to see what works and what doesn't before releasing definitive information, therefore, they asked me not to post any specifics...

I am sure Farnbacher will have a nice upgrade ready. These car simprove a lot with some changes and become almost race cars.
Check out also Cargraphic http://www.cargraphic.com/index.php?...,18,3131,3166/ they have developped a GT3RS program, I like the lip that they have developped. This products is what they will be using on their GT3 during this year's German Tuner GP (They already won it for two consecutive years). Forget the colour or rims BTW
