Porsche 997 R13 GT3R

As our product line expands so does our customer base, with our parts being exported all over the world, and with that export we get to work with some fantastic people supplying our parts for their vision and build.

Our latest collaboration has been on a 997 GT3R build of Christopher Goode, based in New Jersey USA and this is the third incarnation, and whilst we adored the version two, this is just another level.

The second generation of the car was a personal favourite of ours with its GT3R R12 body work and Red Bull livery it was a little bit special, but after a crash it was time for Christopher to raise his game and boy did he raise it several levels.

The front end need to be completely replaced so we made a complete R13 front end comprising of the front bumper, front fenders, front floor and front splitter, with the bumper canards and grill set finishing off the small details.

Christopher then made his own side skirts to tie in the all new R13 front end into the rear R12 rear over fenders and all new rear bumper design, rear diffuser and race wing, it all makes for one very aggressive looking road racer.

With every new look needs a new colour, with white being Christopher’s desired choice, and it works so well on this build all finished off with an incredible interior to match.

This is one build we have known about and discussed for a while, and its one we are really happy to of been involved with, this is one 997 that will grab all the attention where ever it goes.

2019 Players Classic show, at the Goodwood Motor Circuit.

Another year another Players classic show at the beautiful Goodwood Motor Circuit down in Chichester and we have to say they never fail to impress with the wonderful selection of cars they have on display, which is organise year in year out and this year was no different.

As we did last year we headed down to the show with our brother from another mother Iby in the blindingly fast Speedwells 997 Turbo-R only this time with its new look and with some serious power upgrades, 700 + BHP to be more precise, it’s absolutely immense, we got there a little late with the show in full flow but with the prime spot on the Bilstein stand just waiting for the Turbo-R to arrive.

If you haven’t been to the show we can strongly suggest you do, as you have every car you can think of on display, full range of Fords, VW, Japanese sports cars, old classics, hot rods, you name it, its on display, split over various fields, pits lanes and enclosures, it really is a great place for a car show, people seem to come from all over Europe to have their vehicle on show at one of the best modified car gatherings in the UK.

On the Saturday the track is open with a full range of various marquees hitting the tarmac from super quick old classic Cosworth tuned RS Escort’s, to a range of super modern sports cars like the McLaren 570, BMW M3 and Mercedes AMG all in full song, it’s a sight to behold, especially when you see the Escorts RS brigade seem to be a lot quicker than most, the noise is intoxicating.

We had a couple of personal favourites on display this year with the McLaren MP4-12C displayed on the Auto Finesse stand that was tastefully modified, lowered onto a set of BBS LM’S and the MMR full race BMW Z4 GT3 which was pretty spectaular, sat a little high for our liking, but what an absolute beast of a car, makes us really excited as our own Z4 GT3 V8 project is almost ready to hit the streets, it was great to get up close and personal which such an epic car.

Its great to see so many hight quality japanese cars also in attendance, Supras, RX7, Nissan GTR's, with the R32 and R33 our personal favourites, but the one that had us hooked was the Datsun 260Z with the fat flares, dished steels and rat look body, this is the one we wanted to take home.

Carbon fibre roof for the Nissan GTR

For the last few months we have been adding various carbon fibre parts to our various product lines, with the Porsche brand being the main focus for most of the updates, but after being tiered of sourcing parts we didn’t make for the Nissan GTR we have just become extremely tiered of bad quality, especially when we have been ordering from the main stream players of the industry and paying good money for absolute garbage.

This post could easily tune into a rage of how bad the parts are and what is being charged, but we are not that kind of company, but what we can say is if you are paying $2850 USD for a so called American manufactured part, you expect great quality, what you don’t expect flaws in the carbon, or a badly laid weave, and as this is the fourth GTR carbon roof we have had issue with over the last couple of months it was time to take action, which is exactly what we have done.
