Hello 6speed members,

Spring is in the air, and it's time to start bringing your cars out of hibernation for the coming year. To celebrate this, we're going to put one of our differentials on sale. This differential is for the 6spd Cayman S and Boxster S 987 chassis cars. We do have a TBD for the 5 spd Cayman currently in production and we will offer the same deal on them as soon as the arrive in about 30 days or so. If you've got a 5 spd car, hang in there. We havent' forgotten about you.

Our torque biasing differential is a significant upgrade to your gearbox and will get more of your power to the ground. For someone who isn't a serious racer, it's the most cost effective no hassle solution to a better differential in your car. Being gear driven, these differentials do not have a service interval on them like a clutch type LSD does. They also don't require a break in period or the added cost of changing your gear oil more frequently like an LSD. They are great for canyon carving, auto-crossing and open track days.

Regular price on them is $1795. For the next 30 days, we're going to offer them at 20% off. That makes your price $1435 plus shipping. They can be purchased either directly through us, or through one of our authorized resellers who would be installing the unit for you.

Specialist installation is strongly suggested. In addition to the LSD you will need a set of early G50 bolt in axle flanges, replacement side and axle seals, as well adjustment shims. New carrier bearings are not required but suggested as cheap insurance while you are in there. These are all item you should be able to source through the shop that does the install for you.

Please feel free to post up with any questions and I'll do my best to answer them in a timely fashion. PMs. direct emails, and phone calls are all welcome if you prefer.

Kind Regards,

Matt

 

matt, whats the status of the 5-spd tbd? is it on schedule?

also, as paul has relocated back to hawaii, do you think that he'll be able to recommend a reputable shop to install the unit?

 

I'll update on the 5spd TBD this week. I need to get some input from manufacturing.

As for Paul? He's the true silent partner in his retirement. I don't know where he is right now. He's been down in South America some, in Hawaii some, and in CA some. I'll shoot him an email and will usually hear back within a week.

However, your best bet is to probably post something on the Pelican board in the 911 technical forum. There's a few Pelicans from Hawaii and I think they may even have their own usersgroup over there.

 

thanks for the response. i'll check out pelican.

 

I expect to have the new Cayman 5spd TBDs in my hands within 2 weeks. I should have tiptronic ones at the same time.

 

thanks for the update.

 

How about 986 6-speed ?

 

You mean the G86/20? Yeah. We've got that in stock. It's the same as a G50.
