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.

Nah....not yet. I'll wait till the OE is worn out. No reason to crack it open for a simple swap.
...and that will be awhile with only 29K on the ticker.

+1 get the tarett drop links or TRG... much stronger than the agency power ones that kept breaking on me. just do a search trg vs. agency power. i posted pics.
you don't mention shocks. get a really good suspension before the engine bits.
+1 on the drop links RE: Agency Power
The car already has some PSS9's, I believe. I know, soft for the track... JIC's might be a good replacement for those PSS9's.
I'd spend that $3400 in better places than the engine, for example, your suspension. IMHO, that is a waste of money. Spend that $3400 on suspension and you will get much more bang for the buck. For $3400 you can get a nice set of coilovers (PSS9, H&R, etc).
Car came with coilovers. PSS9's, (which I had on my old M3). For the 2-3 events I do a year, they were perfect. In combination with the GT3 bars, they will be perfect.
Thanks for all the concern.

No worries Dell. Just stirrin the mud.
Much of what is listed might in fact change. Particularly in the engine / power department.
But the track trailer is definately a want...
C.
Hey Dell, I see you're back "slumming" on the 996 Forum again. How is the little one? Are you getting any sleep yet? Kids are the GREATEST thing in the world!
why do you guys enjoy messin' with me lately knowing that I have ZERO sleep???
Man I gotta get a better way to read some of these responses. Maybe a special decoder ring or something
Trailer?
Best purchase I ever made for the track. I store my car in it overnight locked up tight. I can store all my track crap in it without worry. And best of all......when I am done with a track weekend and back home I can use it as a storage unit!
I think I hear the kid crying...........
I have to slum from time to time. There is just so much more "fun" topics over her. Do chicks dig a Porsche? Which oil do I use? Would 20" wheels with 385 wide rubber work on my narrow body?
NO F'IN SLEEP!!!!!!!
oh i thought you were a trackaholic. 2-3 events on pss9s are fine. curious, do you really need a trailer for only 2-3 events. you can go with a slightly higher spring rate on the pss9s.
those engine mods will only give you a small percentage increase in performance and won't be much of a difference on the street. where 10ths of a second count, those engine mods DO make a difference, on a race track.
Congrats Dell. I remember when I posted on here about being a new Daddy...
Enjoy - It does get better my friend.
Track stuff - Next time you come to Road Atlanta, you are welcome to stay at my house (wife approval of course)...I only live 15-20min from the track.
C.
dude, you'll love the motons
i just got erp rear links and tarett monoballs installed. coupled with my motons, an aggressive track alignment by tcdesignfab, the effing thing is on rails!
I have ridden in a GT3 on Road Atlanta with Motons. -WOW-
Granted the driver was a Speed World Challenge driver, but damn...
Totally makes the car react, and drive like it should. YOU WILL LIKEY.

Nice mod list Chad! If you want some spacers, I have a set of H&R spacers that I was going to ebay later this week with a reserve price of 50.00 bucks. If not, no sweat. They include the longer bolts (but not the cone washers, since I just removed the washers from the stock bolts). I used them for about two weeks on the rear, but they caused a wobble when I moved them to the front wheels (I put H&R 14mm spacers on the rear, which are hubcentric). If you want them, they are yours for 40 bucks (plus actual shipping).
