How does the saying go - "Blue and green should never be seen, unless it's Titanium and Viper Green."

nothing interesting just expensive repairs for me today....
all new coolant pipes (including some plastic pipe that cost a fortune)
crank position sensor
cooling fan from the front which again should be made of solid gold based on the price
:sad: :sad: :sad:
 
Sports seats.

They need a little TLC and my leather backed comfort seats are in better condition but the Sports versions are nicer to look at, and provide more lateral support when you sit in them - so they will be staying once they are given a thorough clean and treatment.

What have people used to clean and recolour a discoloured side bolster?

Also would like to make them electrically heated. Did post a question but it got moved to a 996 forum so I haven't had any feedback who has done a retrofit seated seat conversion on a 997 yet.

Set of nice condition black 997 leather backed comfort seats anyone? :D
 
:eek: A new hartech engine for me also Cargraphic headers with 200cell cats to complete the cargraphic full set up. :grin: also just been gathering a few bits for when I get it back, RS front arch extenders and the RS wider side indicators , RS dive planes/canards, RSS semi solid engine mounts, GT3TEK rear window roof defuser. looking forward to starting the mods again :thumb: :thumb:

Bought the EVOMSIT tune for the 997.2 turbo :) Lets see how this works.
Their tune for the NA was amazing to say the least
 
997.1 exhausts back boxes

My old ones (originals from 2007) barely creeped through last years MOT in May so I thought I'd better get them replaced in plenty of time, I'm glad I did them yesterday as it's raining today!

Nothing exotic just a pair of standard factory PSE silencers with new clamps, stainless bolts and new tips, I also replaced both the braided vacuum hoses as one side had perished and the valve was very slow to respond. I also fitted a new vacuum switch, y piece and all rubber connectors as they came with the kit!

On Saturday I'd also fitted two new idler pulleys, a new tension pulley and a new belt.

New GT3/Aero Splitter...at last arrived at Porsche Silverstone! Expected the finish to be a bit shabby as this is the one from the motorsport division and only £104 ex VAT, but looks fine to me and certainly better than the rubbish one I bought off eBay that I thought was genuine for £188!

Need to trim off about 15mm before fitting otherwise it won't last very long :D
 
Australian 996 I see... :)
 
Not sure how it did it, try this one. both in their pyjamas.
