914World.com _ The Paddock _ New paint and new front end

Posted by: groot Aug 27 2006, 10:48 AM

Some of you may know that I decided to skip the Runoffs this year... just not ready enough to justify the trip. So, I took some time to get the car a bit more presentable.

Thanks go to Seanery for the numbers and wide stripe ideas.

Kevin.

Car looks great. Very clean, I really like the new bumper/spoiler.

Damn!! Sean needs to do us some matching MassIVe decals for it!

Engine is **almost** done!

car looks great....

how is the progress on your new rear suspension design???

Posted by: Aaron Cox Aug 27 2006, 12:49 PM

savage!

Rear suspension design.... complete.... at least conceptually... and I've gathered all the parts. I just need some mill and TIG time to modify the 944 trailing arms.

Time is the real issue here. I've pushed it off until the off season.

I really like that paint color/scheme! What are the wheels? It is hard to tell if they are painted phone dials or ? Look good black...

Looks Awesome!

What are the specs on your new 'JAKE MOTOR'?

looks like 16" phone dials on the front but the rears look different.

Sorry, I've been away on business....

Fronts are 15" phone dials painted black (hope to powdercoat them one day). Rears are BBS Mahles 15x7s. I have 10 phone dials and 2 BBS Mahles. 2 sets of the phone dials are silver.

Specs on the Jake motor are straight from the GCR. It will be a legal EP 2.0L. It's up to Jake whether he wants to publish power figures or not.

Looks good, man. I was over at Nashville for the SARRC race and really want to get my car done to come out and play.
