    More driver tuition - yes.

    100cell cats, remap - all good for an extra 15bhp on CSL.

    Lighter Recaro seats - yes and maybe removal of 18kg in the rear. Total weight saved - 30kg IMO.

    Go on a diet and lose 10kg or more - yes. :hahaha:

    Some more camber on the front and Brembo BBK.

    That's all i'd do. I wouldn't even do the suspension change.

    Good luck. :thumbs:

      There is also the option that your friend sells the GT3 and gets a CSL.
      Then you can beat him

        remove 80+ kilos as explained before
        carbon bonnet
        front spoiler
        rear spoiler
        rear boot
        lighter exhaust
        seats
        hole saw the front and rear bumper carriers

        if you really wanted to you could strip out all the carpet with the sound deadening in it and put in some light weight custom stuff

        weight loss is a sum of all the parts they might only be 7 kilos 10 kilos here and there put all together it makes a difference big difference.

        shorter rear diff 3.73 or something similar

        remap for the extra 15 bhp

        proper set up and valved race motons these will make a big difference.

        you will be all over him and if you can improve your driving skill past him with ease.

        With these improvements it will be in corner speeds where you will get the lap time so you have to be able to improve the driving skill to get full use of these improvements.

        dont bother with just trying to get big power it is not needed waste of money as mentioned before go buy a different car.

          Forget the re-map. Waste of money on a CSL.
          Front bumper/spolier is already carbon.
          Rear bumper/spoiler - you'd struggle to get one any lighter.

          The rest I broadly agree with apart from also needing better brakes and look into lighter 18" wheels as mentioned earlier in thread.

              Minimal power gains for your money.

                      no, never. most likely keep CSL and buy GT3RS. but to be honest I'm not fan of the 911 rear based engine. And after owning 600HP super moded GTR I like something simple, even it's not that fast and powerfull.

                          mine was black with the same carbon bonnet, TI exhaust, changed ECU map, JRZ suspension, Aeromotions active wing etc..

                          last picture shows the bonnet right?

                            Hi,

                            Is this ''Ricer'' meets ''itchy minge'' or
                            have I missed something ?

                            Regards,

                            The Gorilla.
