Default My Yellow GT2

Well I changed my car color in the 9th hour. It was GT Silver but since my brother choose the EXACT same color I have now decided on SPEED YELLOW. I will not be telling him since that will only lead to him changing to my new color.

Jerry (JROK) was nice enough to re-finish the wheels and mirrors on a Silver GT2 for me earlier, Jerry could you do the same magic on this yellow for me?

Thanks much

Hi Peter,

I think the GT2 looks great in bling. Either SY or GR. I'm bias on SY. Coat them wheels in black. I'll see if I can PS them black for reference.

Be bold, be brave - the car deserves to be different.

Very nice, and I see your GT2 is featured in the cover story of the Porsche Panorama magazine (November 2007 issue)

With best regards,

Gt3s understeer a lot. I would love to know how the GT2 is set up to not be worse knowing that the rear will have 325 tires. I would like to know the car setting if anyone knows. May be that is the best way to cure understeer.

Stephan,

Here are the specs from the 997 GT2 product information book:

Front axle:
Toe-in min: 6’ ±2’
Camber: -1°30’ ±5’

Rear axle
Toe-in min: 13’ ±2’
Camber: -1°30’ ±5’

In comparison, the product information book for the 997 GT3 is as follows (note the front vs. rear camber):

Front axle:
Toe-in min: 6’ ±2’
Camber: -1°20' (±5')

Rear axle:
Toe-in min: 13’ ±2’
Camber: -2°(±5')

Please note that neither of these are the track specs, these are the road specs as the car should be delivered.
