I'm BACK!!! :D

Hi All,
Been a while for sure, but finally made the decision to drop the hammer and get back into a 996 Turbs. After making the mistake of selling my 2001 996TT 6spd...I ended up getting a 98 Gen 2 viper, fun to look at but that's about it. I ended up selling that after about a year and then picked up an F80 BWM M3 DCT..which I really enjoy but was still missing something and realized I didn't need 4-doors for fun drives and occasional track duty. Finally started looking at the turbo again and found the one! It's 2002 996 TT, 6spd. Glad to be back in the community!!





New (to me) Turbo!!

Welcome back! It's hard to beat a 911 as an all around sports car. Careful with the curb in that last pic, you'll scrape your headers!

Thanks!

I really like it..it was pretty fast with a stg 2 e85 tune, exhaust and intake (570-585 rwhp with little mods). Great daily driver, all the electric gizmos that I might miss a little and looks very aggressive IMO. Maybe someday I'll pick up another one but just can't have both right now.

Glad to be back Sam! Might be hitting you up for a Cobb AP soon too!

It looks to be all stock except for the addition of factory lowering kit/suspension (X73?), gt3 wheels and RUF brake kit.

I've got GT3 wheels to go on mine. What size spacers have you got fitted?

I think a ~5mm up front and a ~12mm in the rear.
