CGT 4yr Major

Did they put sandbags in the front trunk so it doesn't fall off the hoist ? Serious question, our dealer does that.

 

cool pics, Kuzi. dare I ask what a 4yr major on a CGT costs?

 

And what it includes.

 

Good point, falling off the lift is a bad thing:

Such a gorgeous machine. Love in yellow.

 

I read something similar in Evo magazine, coincidentally, when Paul Bailey was having his yellow Carrera GT serviced!

Thanks for the pictures Kuzi

 

I believe they may have put some ballast in front but I'm not positive on that. I noticed that the front hood was open so maybe they did. I emailed the mechanic to ask about that and will let you guys know what he says.

I'll have more pictures to share from earlier today. The mechanic took more components off the CGT but the most interesting part was this. For instance did you know that all four brakes have a duct that directs cool air directly into each rotor. The two in front are carbon fiber ducts and the two in the back are plastic. Also, there's a large vented opening in the front fender liners that also helps to keep things well ventilated. Just amazing being able to see those little details up close with all the body panels off.

 

Here's what the mechanic said when I asked about the rear bias issue on the lift:

"With the layout of our rack design its hard to keep the car tied down to the rack. Over night and all other times the veh will be tied down to the lift. As long as I am taking weight off of the rear it will be fine. As soon as any weight is removed from the front of the veh, I will tie the veh down at all times and use ballast in the front of the car to keep it down on the rack."

 

+1. And thanx for sharing. The car is indeed a race car. w/ smiles Jimmy

 

awesome pics! thanks for sharing... man i love this car...awesome hardware..

 

Great insight of a stunning vehicle. Love the detail shots. Thanks

 

1 of my ATF!
so it takes belts instead of timing chains?

 

I hate to ask money questions, but what did it cost? I've always wanted a CGT, but always been turned off by $25K clutch jobs and so many CF pieces. I think that it would cost me a ton, being that I'd probably drive it so much.

 

Great pics.

Thanks for sharing kuzi, Atomic thanks for taking them.

 

Here's the rest of the pictures in a slideshow, enjoy!

Photos like that just wow me with how impressive the CGT can be! what a machine. amazing the engineering that went into that machine.

awsome.

just curious, how much is that valve service, and just curious if you thought about knocking that off whilest you had it all pulled apart.
