The GT1 is just beautiful, but I am really intrigued about what's under the skin.... Did the guys at Matech change the suspension design dramatically? I can see they are using a centrelock hub, are there any major changes down there?

Matteo,

Yeah, pretty much everything is different except for the body tub and front & rear subframes. Suspension is completely different. Matech GTs do not even use FGT A-arms.

Chip,

Do you know what kind of pump is being driven off the axle shaft in pic #3?

I was wondering that as well. Air-conditioning?
