My 981 GT4 Project

Thought it was about time to start a project thread as I've had the car 10 days now and I plan to do a few bits with it. I recently sold my 997.2 Carrera S to make way for a 981 GT4 and couldn't be happier with it.

The car is a 6k mile Guards Red Clubsport car with a load of nice spec.

Here it is on collection day in it's natural habitat:









I fancy some BBS E88s after having a set on my 997 but polished lips aren't ideal over winter, so for now the wheels have been refurbed White Gold as I'm not a fan of black wheels.



First track day at Croft went really well along with my Dad's 991.2 GT3. Honestly - not an awful lot between them other than the engine which is a really nice surprise. The car is all I hoped for and more on track. I'd like more noise for the road but don't want to struggle with track days.

I managed to fit the fire extinguisher, which has never been fitted, in conjunction with the mat which was impossible according to Porsche. It was a challenge but pleased that it's in. I didn't get chance to get the harnesses fitted yet but they'll be a nice bonus for track days - however, the 918 buckets provide such good support that I found little difference between my car and the GT3 with harnesses (also 918 buckets).













I've removed the stripe as well as the GT4 wing endplate decals as I really didn't like them.







More to follow soon. I'll try and keep this updated.
 
........unlike your signature :wack:

That looks a fun car and one which offers good VFM in my book.
 
Very nice! Enjoy 👍

Haha, oops! Updated it now!
 
Car looks great and I too prefer without stripe. :thumb:

Is that a 964 in the garage?
 
congrats on a fantastic car

Love the GT4, Im happy with the noise on the road as its easily the loudest car I have owned (including a straight pipe GTR)

Keep us updated on your mods as you do them
 
Another day at Croft and the car was brilliant again. RSNV wing risers fitted purely for the aesthetics. It looks like it always should have done. The stock risers are a bit fussy and have strange proportions IMO.

Yes that's a Guards 964 C4.
