    GT-R

    The owner of that car passed back in Feb. He also bought all the moulds from Matech as he was planning on making body panels to sell to Ford GT owners.

    Ceramic carbon brakes

    Budget and CC are not 2 words to use in the same sentence. When I looked at this a few years ago, a complete package (rotors, calipers, pins and springs) was around $8 to 9k new and this was all original GM OEM stuff no aftermarket stuff.

    I will talk to him. He left on Wednesday for a race so might be back Sunday. Allot of factory support has been pulled as well as sponsorship, so there might be some stuff floating around.

    Gear ratios

    Gear ratios

    Thanks for the info. Yes the plan all along was to dyno the engine for the hp/torque curve to determine optimal shift points and race gear ratios. In the earlier stage of planning and did not think heavier about the clutch. I will have to compromise a little on the clutch as the clutch and...

    Gear ratios
