Z, I haven't been at the 6 in awhile, good to see your wheels movin out. very cool sound. good luck with the GF, my lady doesn't want to drive my car, or even ride in it usually. Can't say I mind all that much.... she just closes her eyes when I can get her in there for even a short trip. check out the twin-turbo Burk put in his... the spooling up sound is also very cool. best, j

That said here's my C4S, it doesn't have the "carrera 4s" logo in these pics (new decklid) but it is on right now (red S).

Cheers,

headlights are interesting. I've seen similar stuff on this forum over the years. how did you get yours done, if you dont mind sharing....

and consider painting the lower trim all the way around...also looks very good on some of the cars here.

Don't mind at all , I've got Techart headlight masks (from P. dealer) but the combo with the customized 997 GT2 bumper makes it work IMO (don't think there's anybody kicking around here with that on a 996 ).

I had the urethane lip painted on my other P. but it's freaking disaster!!
The front lip gets way too much contact with the road up here... but at least I've gotten rid of the flat black side skirt and replaced those with Precision Porsche 997 GT street look ones.

The rear bumper is going to be replaced with the 997 GT street Techart this winter.

Cheers,

Sid.

Gotta keep this thread going... the calling all cabs thread is starting to gain some ground.

Anyway... here is my baby. It is an '02, 39k... ish miles, fairly stock but still looking pretty good in my somewhat tainted opinion!

Thanks man.... It had two previous owners who obviously babied it. I am doing my best to preserve the beauty, but given that it is driven everyday, and I am planning some track time in the VERY near future (and hopefully on a consistent basis) I'm not sure how long it will hold its' current look.

I am looking at suspension options now, but not sure which way to go. I know it needs to be lower, but am strugling with the neverending question "how low should I go?".... Seriously I am just not sure how much adjustability I truly need in the suspension (ROW or a PSS10 for instance). Also trying to figure out if the car needs spacers with the stock wheels...

Anyone have pictures of a stock wheel setup with and without spacers?

Car Washed by a few new friends!

This past Saturday I was in the Stony Brook area and came across a car wash even which was run by... SORORITY GIRLS from Stony Brook University! Thought I'd share the 2 pics that I took.
