Is that the kit from WhiteNSX? I saw your pics on Prime under his thread. Looks great!
Yes sir I got this kit from Stephen - he came by the local JDM show in SF to drop off the lights to me last week

I'm on Prime as well under the same SN....

Just an FYI but the bulb size in the s2000 and the GT3 are EXACTLY the same using D2S bulbs!

I tried two diferrent brands since in my s2000 I am running the PRO-lumen units and in the GT3 I ended up getting McCullough bulbs. I have yet to drive the GT3 at night but it seemed the McCullough bulbs are a bit more intense but this could be due to the projector design.

Yea the s2000 is a PITA requiring a full bumper removal and all those 10mm bolts (that install must have taken me over 2 hours!) The GT3 is a walk in the park as long as you know what you are doing...hehe


My rims I'm keeping on the D/L so just have to wait - only clue is that they are Japanese rims......

I love your car, 997 gt3's are one of my favorite Porsches!!! And if it were my car I would be getting Work Brombacher's in gold with a polished lip Whatever they are Im sure they will look great!

Rick you should just sell the M3! With that GT3, you are not even going to touch the bimmer!

Ben,

No sense in selling the m3 - the market is just not worth selling for what I have tied up in that car and I'm never going to sell it for market value with all that work.

My friend said it best "used m3's are the best daily driver's and modded ones are even better!"

The s2k is slowly turning into a show car so probably just drive the m3 more often these days.
