OK. Just a little news that's come in down under. Read and weep boys. Looks like our beloved 997tt's glory days are soon coming to an end.

Saw that! PDK only everything sigh

 

They are indicating stick is still an option tho, although likely not the faster out of the 2. But still i'd sacrifice a few tenths just to keep the connection. I guess so long as the choice is there is the main thing..... but once that goes then, sigh!

 

Aye but not for the GT3

 

Maybe i'm reading it wrong but sure it says the 3 still has stick? Let me take a good look. It's hard to imagine GT3 will ever have the stick removed..

 

Hope this will increase the value of my GT2 to CGT prices!!!

 

You never know. If the stick is no longer an option anythings a possibility..

And Alex,

This is the extract i was referring to below..

Porsche has yet to confirm details of the 991-series GT3, but it is understood it will be offered with both the conventional seven-speed manual gearbox and, for the first time, a PDK dual-clutch transmission.


I guess they are still; "yet to confirm details"..... so you may be right eh....but i hope not.

 

Welcome back Paul. :-)))
I read in my UK mag, that they are keeping the Mezger for the new club sport racer but with PDK! Will try to scan the article and post.

 

How did the rehab go? Welcome back Paul!

 

Detox was good Dave but they realized they couldn't live without me so they released the shackles. All i gotta do now is figure out what kind of meds some of the boys are on over here....and keep plenty of supply on hand .
Btw have you got your car screwed back together yet? Or have you turned into a greeny and got a Porsche pushbike now?

 

Lets try that again.

 

I think it was getting way to boring around here.

I better start posting some pics on my build again. Longest build in history.

 

I like the "let's" bit bob....so, "let's" all just call it a work in progress eh..

I mean life's good with two way traffic flowing .

 

Thought that must have been the case.

No kidding. Is the engine in yet? Exactly where are you up to and what's the hold up? Have you lost some of the bolts?

 

Thought I had all the parts. Decided to go 3.8, started assembling, then realized sleeves are bigger and no longer fit stock bottom gaskets.
Getting some custom ones made from Cometic.
