About 2.5"

Few more things back on the car.

Level 5 DSS hubs and finally rear brakes!

4" aluminum under there doesn't leave much room.

Everything is clean because it's new! I do sweep often and wipe the dust off things for pictures though, lol... at least it can look nice!

Sway bar because street car.

Another few things updated on this never ending project.

It's alright.

It's coming along.. I need to find the sway bar and get the auto diff cleaned up and installed.

Got this done over the weekend.

Got the car up on stands to do the rear subframe.

Got the garage ready to get the Volk subframe in place when I get back from vacation.

Sold the awd Spyder.

I did the unthinkable. I sold this car last night.

Started getting things installed over the weekend.

He took me for a ride when I picked up the trans...it's a very cool car for sure!My Porsches aren't a pain to work on, but there is definitely a tax on the parts cost.

Look into an Audi RS3!

Porsche or BMW definitely get my vote for the daily driver! I absolutely love my Turbo Cayennes but the gas mileage is rated in SPG, not MPG! (smiles per gallon vs miles). You simply can't beat the driving experience and comfort of a German engineered car.

Adding a few goodies thanks to Volk Metal Craft!

I put some new parts in the garage with it. :D

I posted the chassis(basically rolling chassis for 7500. I was keeping the drivetrain, electronics and the drag radials.

I wouldn't ever part the car out like that. For me it would be full chassis type thing.

Did he end up pulling the motor out of it? lol It was a parts car that we got to use then lost the car the parts were for in a fire.

Just a couple weeks ago I reached an agreement with a guy and I thought the car was going away.I got into the cars initially because it was fun to outrun the v8 guys with a 4 banger. The platform really grew on me and it just snowballed from there. Built several cars over the years and moved...

Out with the old FP/PTE combination. In with the new Archer Fabrications/VS Racing 62/62.

The Red one was supposed to be a parts car for the silver one but it's just too nice for me to part out even with the minor body damage. LOL I have a problem.

These Porsches are my next weakness. There’s just something about a TTv8 ManVan that I love!😎

Just an old 4x4.

I have to disagree at this point, Marty. With Volk making the AWD swap bushing kit now it saves a lot of the pain in the ass work. If the chassis you're starting with is clean or something you have an attachment to, it's a viable option. it's getting harder to find a good car for a good price.

I put a good end clutch pack in the Spyder and got to take it for a spin. This car is a blast to drive, Auto, AWD and the 6152.

I traded a good/running 98 4G63T long block for the AWD Spyder shell(no drivetrain) about 5 years ago.

I threw it on there about 2 years ago for $15k with a few less parts and only had 1 actual person interested.

Still have the speed density version?

$25k

Paul @ Volk Metal Craft is the only vendor that picked up handles to have on the shelf! I do not keep handles in stock because of the cost! The only time to get in on a set is when I do a group buy. The next one won't be till the end of the year to ship in the spring.

Certainly.

I still have 3 of these damn things!

I'm going to tinker with doing some caps with my printer. It'll be a good way to offer a cheaper than billet alternative. I've tried with the handles but haven't been to happy with the results.

It is does not meet the rules but it passed tech. In the blue car where the cell is actually located the plan is still to build a firewall for the increased safety and to actually comply with the rules.

I sold the chassis to a friend when I bought the blue chassis.

That is one of Hal's caps. I based mine off of his and they are pretty much the same thing. I did recess the bolt and change the outlets to opposing on the dual port. As stated above, you can bend the arms up slightly to cause it to clamp harder or add a second gasket to achieve the same basic...

None of the Above.

2011?? That's it?

Now it looks like a baby 4th gen camaro! :D

Maybe it's just me but a start up video usually is a car cranking and then actually starting... This sounds more like an air compressor already running than a start up vid.

Glad to see another set installed!

Got it out of the garage.

I just saw this. The Yellow wire from the harness goes to the F connector (black wire if you're using a saturn harness) connector on the alternator. The black wire from the harness goes to the black/white on the alt conector.

The last line says "Wiring is pretty straight forward, the large yellow wire goes to the F(black) wire on the saturn connector and the small black wire goes to the L(black w/ white stripe) on the saturn connector."
