Background & Plans
Nearly done...

I’ve always admired the Porsche GT3 RS because it was both an amazing vehicle for the track, utilized many of the GT3 RSR pars, yet was still suitable for the street. Using what amounts to a parts list from the 302R, 302S, and supporting vendors, I am hoping to create what I’m calling a 302SX. A car nearly as capable as the 302S but with the ability to convert into a suitable road car for show and mountain driving.

FRPP did something similar when they tried to increase the performance of the 302S by adding an aluminator. Not really interested in the aluminator swap, but I like the experimental concept. (https://carbuzz.com/news/ford-mustang-boss-302sx-concept-appears-at-pri)
