Having purchased my GT3 last November I decided as usual with all cars I,ve owned to lavish cash and love into it and have started on extensive upgrades / improvements. Have no intention of selling anywhere near in the furuter and besides want my car 100 %

Tell me what you think.

Have had the following completed to date

- New braided brake lines.
- Replace Alcon front disks and Pads all round
- KW Manthey suspension fitted supply from JZM
- Had front air intake grills fitted and rads cleaned / inspected
- New drop links front and rear as showing signs of wear including anti roll bar bushes
- Wheels refinished graphite Grey , I like the stealth look but maybe not everyones tatse.
- Fitted my Snooper Sat nav , owned this before the car purchase, simply removed CD tray and the unit fits snug with no mods or brackets required.
-Full Geo set up by local race shop.
- Getting a full cargraphic R exahaust system fitted in 2 weeks time by Parr.

Undecided as to get an ECU remap from Parr to match exhaust system .....would be interested in comments from anyone with experience of having this completed and if it would be worth the spend.
A few pics attached

Nicely maintained, think about getting JZM to fit Cup diff plates, as yours guarantee worne out. You'll notice a substantial improvement in handleing.

Yes Cup diffs are on the want list for sure. That will have to wait till end year now though as Porsche fund is needing maintaining after the spend.
