Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm just wondering if many folks out there with non GT3 996/997s are outdoing track days ?

POST 2Original post

They're definitely out there! If you go to pcnsw.com.au and look for results, you'll be able to see who's been sprinting, and I know there are non-Mezger engined 99x cars, as well as Boxsters and Caymans...Caymen...Caymaenner....erm, all kinds of 986 and 987 cars. As a side note, the 996 Turbo is closer to the GT3 than to Carreras, as it shares the Mezger-designed engine.

POST 3Original post

There were more than a couple 996 Turbos at Sandown over the weekend.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks James & Theo. I was getting a bit worried when I searched you tube for 'eastern creek' and '996' and all I found was GT3 & Cup car videos.

POST 6Original post

I have tracked my 996 Carrera a couple of times. Only mods are a baffled and enlarged Gemballa sump and some semi slick tyres.
