After Gurch had worked his magic on my motor, it went in for -30mm springs, chin spoiler, braided hoses and a Revo trial yesterday. I left the Porscheshop, went for a 40 mile drive, returned and had it installed. It's truly like a breath of fresh air. The engine is so sharp and keen to rev. Moving along at 80 in 6th, then dropping a cog and flooring it, it picks up to 130 much much quicker than before. Its how I felt when bolting on the strut brace, why aren't they like this 'from the crate'
Anyhow I recommend this upgrade as it is worthwhile on a 'slower 3.4'

When do you stop adding bits? lol.
 
IS your wife monitoring the spend on your car Mark? You seem to have done loads to it!
 
Absolutely hasn't got a clue Chris, and thats the way its staying :wink:
Just thought! gonna be difficult 'hiding' the new wheels lol.
 
Speaking of bits, I took off the black Targa badging at the rear and replaced it with a 997 silver Targa badge instead. It stands out against the midnight blue paintwork. I am well chuffed. :D

Was this on a track or is the speedo switched to kph?

To answer the question, you stop adding bits the day you decide to sell it.

Cargraphix alloys

If you are fitting these - do you want to sell the Turbo I alloys you have at the moment?

If so I am interested.
 
No , I'm having them refurbished with a black chrome finish
<pure sex> then polished and waxed to within an inch of their lives, whipped till they bleed and then buffed up for 6 years, then glossed with a £60 million wax, dipped in acid then repeat the process 30 times, then washed and wiped till quite shiny!

No, sorry gonna have them refurbed and stored :?
