996 Turbo down under
He's probably so busy from referrals he doesn't need a website or do any marketing which is always encouraging.
Quick spool and a wide power band appeals to me a lot more than peak HP.
I'm still really keen to understand how his turbos differ from other billet or hybrid turbos and what his packages go for.
I'll contact him one I'm ready to start mods.

If only this 996tt was a 6 speed manual. 
I would have been on the first plane to Melbourne if it was.
It ticked almost every box (colour, km's, condition).

Not many 996TT's for sale in Australia (only 8 on the Market ATM).
There is only 1 Manual left on the market and they are asking $125,000AUD
The prices are definitely heading North and i was lucky to get in before they were completely out of my price range.
I'm already getting a few bits and pieces from Markski.
It's already got an exhaust and tune so the next steps will be billet turbos, fuel upgrade etc.
I have tuned every car i have ever owned and this one won't be any different.
I was also thinking about getting lowered springs or coil overs but i currently scrape the front bumper on my driveway already.
Cheers
Pete
but scrapes, i think tim will agree, try for a c4s lip maybe like we have..?
and ask jim here ( he's just gone missing for a minute
about driveways! iirc? he actually got the neighborhood someone or other to PAY for the reworking of his driveway to minimize the "scrapes"! now thats what i call "workin' it". 
anyway.. you're working with markski here who all swear by, and you should also hook up with sam at by design in here as he is really knowledgeable and helps as often as he sells stuff. but either way, hang onto that thing and enjoy it, shiny side up. up to 125K AUD!? wow..

wow those prices are insane even if the aud is - against the usd! but good you grabbed one. folks keep saying the values are going up everywhere? i'm still a bit skeptical about any possible increase in $ value, but i just drive mine..

when you buy the car, enjoy it for at least few months...know the car better, check what it needs, and yeah inspect the car very carefully before buying , few cars out there are just sitting to be picked up so you put tons of money out of your pocket to make it run right. search the forum, read the threads, you can save tons of money by fixing it yourself.

Love to have you over here, I'll line up the didgeridoo for you
I am now having the council do my mums driveway as well so I can at least drive T in. I have even phoned them about the lane way entrance off the road at work and guess what they said....we'll have a look at it.
