The Force Is Strong"R" With This One

[Socalrugger]

Dream car acquired! Finally brought home a 2015 Porsche GT3. I’ve been a Ford guy forever but I always wanted a Porsche ever since the first Bad Boys movie. I can see why Ford benchmarked the new GT500 against these.
.
I kind of feel like I shouldn’t have it. I got tapped to help grow our Porsche connection at Signature Wheel and the cost of the car was extremely favorable from a friend. Otherwise it wouldn’t of happened
. Looks damn good on our Precision Series SV705.
.
This is one hell of a car and I appreciate it a little more every time I drive it. 23 gallon extended tank and gets 20+ MPG. The car feels extremely nimble, solid, well engineered. Hoping to do some cool on track comparisons with my GT500 since both cars are PDK/DCT. There are some areas where I like the GT500 DCT more, recognizing a 5-year development gap of course. I still think I prefer the GT350R to all of them in terms of a drivers car.
.
Any recommendations on places to connect with the Porsche gents let me know. Drop a pic of yours if you have one!

Those wheels are sex......

Nice GT3. Continuing to blaze trails. May want to ping @Bossing for Porsche connections.

One of the best cars ever made and also on my dream board. Someday I will have a blue one.

Been missing the GT350R lately. Had to throw it in storage for a while as I sorted out other projects. Brought it home to finalize a few things before bringing it back out with its new look. Hope for some fun track days this year.
.
Been tweaking the suspension with the DSC Sport Controller which has been fun. I swapped in the 16.5" 2020 GT500 brakes a while back but did not want the weight penalty. Sooooooooo I changed the front to the Racing Brake Carbon Ceramic 2020 GT500 front 16.5" rotors and street compound pads.
.
Currently sitting on our Signature Wheel Royal Series SV801 in Brushed Bronze Tinted. This is a maximum fitment with a 20x11.5 square, 315/30/20 Michelin 4S at all four corners, and DEEP concave.
.
The 2021 iteration should be quite impressive with a few goodies from Archetype Racing

OK. Will stick with my SV701s for now. Got my eyes open for another set later this year (summer), but with no poke.

You can run 315 squared without modifications to the front steering? (Or did I miss that post)?

Just a good alignment and the right wheel specs. That’s it
