Panoz GTS modified, independant rear suspension


Good morning.. I thought some of you might find the modifications and fabrication on this GTS quite interesting.. It is all very well done... whole new rear end, interesting duct work around the radiator, additional tubes added to the roll cage/chassis and much more!!!


Let me know if anyone wants more detailed photographs..
Best wishes
James Redman

Very cool. I've been thinking about going to IRS for my car. It's gotta handle better (when properly set up) and it could remove some weight. I'd go with a Vette set up since I have some experience in that direction.

BTW, selling that car for $25k is a KILLER to our resale value! Should be worth MUCH more with all that work!! I wouldn't sell mine for less than $25k and it's doesn't have nearly that amount of work!

Yeah, in stock trim they are leaf, but conversion to coil overs are very common and should be easy (probably a huge understatement) to implement. I'm hoping I can get a good geometry figured out that doesn't need too many alterations to the existing frame members.
