Justin, can you please expand on what was done to the car exactly? Engine, exhaust, drive train, suspension, shifting, radiators, wheels, brakes, aero, etc. Pics are nice but certainly don't tell the whole story. I'd like to get more info on this car.

With prices of 997 GT3 and especially RS being so high, the 997TT becomes an obvious choice for a bullet proof modern race car.

What kind of wet weight are we looking at? I'd bet that thing is a space ship.

Justin has been the biggest supporter of our CSF Radiators.

He's using the 997 GT3 set for this build. #7047(L) and #7048(R) on the sides and #7053 for the center radiator

Way to go RS-1
