I remember seeing this car at the Krispy Kreme meet in Burbank! Your car is absolutely amazing.

This is a gorgeous car, I have always loved that crazy double wing set up for this gen of 911. Keep up the good work, I'm inspiring to get a 911 after I finish my 944 daily.

It's a '68, so it's a SWB. I'm pretty stoked about it. I'm still waiting for the p.o. to get the title though.Originally posted by hawaii911 View Postaw shit you got a 912.what year is it? and im pretty sure you can tackle the front pan change. i did my front pan in my garage. just make sure the front torsion mounts line up and the gas tank support lines up with the gas tank
Sorry for the lack of updates. I've literally worked every day nonstop for the last 2 months, and have work booked everyday for the next 3-4 months. This had delayed the work I can do to the car.
So after all of the work I took it out to Buttonwillow two weeks ago. The car performed great, but it is obvious I need to dial in the suspension. Despite all of the new mods the lap time was about the same. Granted I was on shredded tires so it wasn't a fair comparison. With some new rubber I'm thinking the car will be a couple of seconds faster without any work to dial it in. I'll update in the next few weeks as I get

Unfortunately I got a little crazy at the last Auto-X and lost a headlight ring hahaha.

So everything is installed, and I was able to clearance the fenders to fit at the new ride height, and with the extended arms. The only downside is that it makes the car look higher, but that's the price of performance I suppose.
Here it is with 4 degrees of camber. I'm going to start at 4 and dial it in at the track this weekend when I get a chance to check the tire temps.

Turned out my clutch cable needed some love so I replaced that while I had it up in the air.

Then I decided to take a trip to NY to visit my friend Brett at Sloancars. As you can see here, they have some beautiful cars.

No worries. I was trying to be informative, not come off like a dick. Unfortunately that gets lost in translation online.Originally posted by sawatsky View PostA little late, but no actually I didn't realize that. I have never taken a close look at a "proper" race/track car. I also wasn't trying to be critical, I was just surprised to see it. Makes sense though, wood is so durable and cheap, and the strength to weight is pretty great too. I love this build
Thanks!Originally posted by charlie_91 View PostThis car is so damn sick. Would do anything to own a car like this. Keep doing what ur doing
Thanks for the awesome pics Nyk!Originally posted by nykwhy2 View PostI'm no spastic dwarf but;!!
Sorry, I had you mixed up with someone else.Originally posted by rsingh3g View PostNo it's not Rush. My name is Raman
Thanks, I'm still a little torn on what to do with that car. I'm not 100% set on keeping it since it needs a new front pan, and that's a ton of work.Originally posted by M.Sam View PostIm excited to see what you will do with the 912. Also, your 911 is awesome. Dont change the wing, I like it a lot, the fact that it is not color matched and the shape. The ''raw'' look of your race car is amazing. My dream car is a 930. Your thread make me want to speed up the thing a bit!
Thanks, I'm still torn on what to do with the wing. I'll probably keep the one on there or have two set ups. I'm glad I could inspire you to expedite the 930 ownership process haha.
Thanks again, and I understand why you'd expect different. My car may not be about poke and crazy stretch, but I find like to think of it as a nice balance between form and function.Originally posted by CandySucker View PostForgive me.
Considering this is "Stanceworks" you're right...I was expecting something different
Anyway keep up the work on your car man, I appreciate any kind of work, especially work of this level!
Thanks Nic. Your e21 has been one of my favorites since I saw it at bimmerfest '08 at CJ's house.Originally posted by TheNeek View Posthi Amir. Your car is cool... If you're into that whole "engineering" kind of thing.
Thank you!Originally posted by Codarsnacht View PostBeautiful. One of the nicest cars on here

Honestly, I’m beyond superlatives at this point. I’ve no idea how you guys keep delivering such a high standard every week. Simply put, it’s inspiring. This is also the first week where I’ve started to see #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER live in the field, with images leaking in from the recent Rallye Monte Carlo. I’m just itching for …
You got featured!

You do realize that most splitters on track cars are made of wood? The pretty CF ones that don't mount to the body are mainly for show. Despite this I'm still toying with the idea of making my own CF splitter. Composites are interesting. I just don't know if I have the time.
