I cannot wait to get the car and get started on some improvements, it’s remaining with him for a while to sort a few little bits however it’s a very solid and well improved car. The spec is:

930 trailing arm, Motec M48 ecu, Kaaz plate diff, 4.00 final drive (~150mph max), Mocal oil cooler, Ohlins adjustable dampers, 30mm elephant racing rear torsion bars, 22mm elephant racing front torsion bars, Adjustable anti roll bars, elephant racing rear, porsche front, 3.8l 964 engine – unit eleven porsche, mapped wayne schofield, Schrick cam 040, GT3 crank, Uprated valve springs, Jenvey ITBs throttle bodies, Stack instruments, Momo wheel, 8” front wheel Fuchs, 9” rear wheel Fuchs, Michelin TB5 tyres
