Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Well.. That didn't take long. http://www.hbc.co.uk/cgi-bin/zyview/D=vehicles/V=popwin/R=6168843/MAKE_MODEL=PORSCHE%20CAYMAN%20.98/ZV_AND_OR=and/MAKE_MODEL_ZV_ENABLED=no Disturbing how the front shock has been ripped clean out. Are the towers aluminium on the GT4?

Strut top tower is most likely cast so fairly brittle. It would make a great base for a Race car....

Why would cast aluminium be brittle ?
Redarress said: Why would cast aluminium be brittle ? Cast metals are generally more brittle, well, less ductile, than forged metals. It is a characteristic arising from the grain size and orientation of the grains of cast metal vs. forged metal. When my 2008 Cayman S was hit some cast iron hardware was fractured. While cast alumumin and iron are tough there is a limit to the forces they can withstand. There is nothing sinister in that damage. In this case it is just the result of a car encountering something it shouldn't have...
Strong glass
Word is circulating that the owner is now in a silver GT4..... Thinking is Porsche helped him out.... Not sure but that's a quick recovery either way!!!
