And I noticed prices have risen. Here's my new ride I picked up a week or so ago. It has 911 tuning exhaust, Bilstein adjustable coil overs, GT2 adjustable control arms, GT2 clutch, flywheel and a GMG roll bar or cage, what ever is the correct terminology. Bigger front calipers, but they don't look like 6 piston though. The previous owner is sending me the original shifter and things he removed. I hope he sends a Cobb accessport as it has a tune but I'm not sure whose it is yet. I put the original seats back in it too. Purchased this from my friend that owns a dealership. It came from Florida, anyone know who owned it?

I changed all of the brake pads too. It had Hawk pads on all four corners, buy they're way too noisy. Any idea if the front calipers were upgraded to a bigger unit? I put original pads back on. When I was looking up part numbers every place I checked called for the same pad for the front and rear.

Front



Rear

Thank you, the car is low but doesn't scrape anywhere and the ride is very nice. Who ever set up the suspension knew what they were doing.

Yes, they were Recaro's, looked really nice but not fun to take the wife out for cruise. To be honest I hated them too.

It's a satellite radio unit. I have a nice touch screen double din stereo for it, I'm trying to figure out the correct bezel for stereo. Is there a certain one for cars with factory cup holders?

I'll look up Timmayfest, never heard of it.

That looks like a good time. 90% I'm going to be there, I just have to make the dreaded call to in-laws to dog sit and confirm the wife can get day off.

Thanks for the heads up.
