    Just read that article .. Think he must of read my thread !

    This situation seems a little odd to a chap who lost the thick end of £10k in one year on a 997 GT3 gen 1 between spring 2010 and 2011.

      A CS specs would be ideal...
      JZM told me they could retro-fit rear seats and seat belts into a GT3 Comfort, which would suit my purposes. In any case, it's all academic now. To console myself about the possible lack of value increase I would have seen with a GT3, I got downpipes fitted to my GTR so that it spits flame :supz:

        You could have managed that by simply changing the fuelling in the map. Its an easy fix for a mapper who know what they're doing... Would have saved yourself quite a bit I'd have thought, but the larger bore pipes will move exhaust gas quicker which means better bhp generally...

          Even with an aggressive map, it's difficult to get flame without downpipes - when I bought the car from Litchfield, I asked them to throw in their upgraded bellhousing. At that point, adding the downpipes is very little extra labour. Add the pops and bangs map, and whoof.

          Plus I wanted the car to be ready to accept larger turbos (ie. stage 4.5) if I decided to upgrade. As it is, the car is way faster than I am as a driver. I'm planning on some CAT training as my next upgrade.

            Have heard one on full chat in 2nd gear. God knows how fast it was moving by then, but the noise... Oh...my...lord.

            To this day, I haven't heard anything so bonkers. Even the CSL...

              Yes I have had belts put in the back of my 997.1 GT3 Comfort so can use for occasional short journeys for the kids. Interestingly you cant do this for a 997.2 as the fixing points are not present as it has a slightly different subframe apparently.
