took the kid out for a ride in the cab today

no school today so had him for the day. weather was nice. he seemed to enjoy it. had to move the front seat up though.


seat fit tight, didn't budge an inch. seemed like it was pretty safe. hope it is.

Sorry to be a stickler but my high school English teacher once said, "Goats have kids. Humans have CHILDREN." Children ... not "kids."

Did you put a turbo wing on your cab? I don't see the turbo intakes so I'm guessing you put it in yourself? How difficult is it? I like the rear wing look but all seem to be a bit big, I think the turbo is the perfect size.

I also noticed your NB Turbo wheels too. I have a set and looking for a spare set. It s hard to find the narrow body offset turbo wheels. Most people are not even aware they are available. Or is your car a C4?

rear seat belt goes through the back of the car seat. the belt you see in that picture is the front seat belt.

yes I replaced the standard decklid with the turbo decklid. it actually wasn't that hard. toughest part is finding a good condition decklid with working hydraulics. you have to change the fan and buy a new wiring harness, but otherwise it's pretty easy on a 997.2. on a 997.1 it's harder because the stock air intake won't allow it to fit. here is the link to the thread where I had it installed. https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...installed.html

I am aware of the NB turbo wheels but couldn't find any. these are actually the WB turbo wheels on my narrow body they seem to fit okay without really protruding despite the increased width.

I understand you can use the widebody wheels with spacers... is that what you have? 295s or 305 tires in rear?

both NB and wb have 11 inch rears and nb 8 inch front and wb 8.5 inch front. It s the offsets that make the difference.
Classy looking car!!!

Being a dad with kids that still fit in the back of my 911 make me one of the coolest days in the car pool like at my kids elementary school.
