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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello everyone, I have recently purchaced a 2000 Boxster. I have been a Honda owner since I was sixteen. My first car was an 87' Civic, followed by a '90 Accord, and then a 00' Civic Si. I sold my beloved Si and bought the Boxster. A little about myself: I am a recent graduate of Florida State University. I am 23 and currently live in Orlando. I work for a retirement community builder as their Webmaster. I also am a partner in a small company called KDM Technologies that specializes in dynamic (database driven) websites. I was a long time member of Superhonda.com and browsed and posted frequently. I am now looking for a new forum home, and hopefully I have found one. I have raced my Si in a few Solo II events in the Dixie Region SCCA 2002 season. I also raced a few Solo II events in the Central Florida SCCA 2002 season. I also run a website with my roomate: http://www.digitalinsomnia.cc Enough about me, I'm gonna learn all about my car in the forums. Time to read! Matt~

POST 2Original post

Welcome Matt! (no pun intended... geez, you must be sick of that joke? ). Hope you enjoy your car and become active with the info sharing on this site.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I would defiantly like to be proactive on this board. On Superhonda.com a post would have 2-3 responses an hour, and that was in the Civic Si specific forum. It was a very busy site.

POST 4Original post

Welcome to the forum, looking forward to seeing you post a lot here. This place has great potential. Congratulations on your Boxster, hope we get to see some pictures of it as well.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Here are some pictures of my Boxster: http://www.digitalinsomnia.cc/mom/boxster/

POST 6Original post

Very nice! I checked all of your pictures. What camera did you use for those shots? Like the colored wheel crests. Overall a really great looking Boxster. Every time I look at a Boxster, I just fall in love all over again.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just a Sony 2 Megapixel camera. Nothing special, picked it up for $200

POST 8Original post

Well guys just wanted to say hi as the primary borrower of that green Boxster. I must say that its a pretty sweet ride, just need some tweeking in certain areas. By the way Matt we need to get to the track soon and race, both 1/4 and autocross. By the way for you guys that havn't figured out what my daily beater is, its a 03 350Z Track. Maybe Matt will put some pics of it one day

POST 9Original post

Kind of liked the new Z when I first saw pictures of it. Now that I have seen it in person though, I don't really care for the looks of it that much. I am sure it is a great car though as far as performance goes.

POST 10Original post

I love his Z, it is a really sweet ride. One thing I like much more in the Z than the Boxster is the shifter, very short shifts.

POST 11Original post

Not sure if you have tried the Boxster wiht B&M shoft shifter in place, but that makes one hello of a difference. Short shifts and notchy, very positive, love it. CCLinLOO

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have been considering one. I think I'll give it a try. How easy is it to install. Could it be done by anyone, or does it need a pro.

POST 13Original post

I have the B& M Short Shifter and it makes a world of difference. t actually cuts down the shift throw by atleast 30% in each gear. Only downside I have noticed is that it is slightly louder then the stock shifter. Its very easy to install and a must for the performance enthusiast. It comes with instructions and can be installed within 30-45 minutes as a beginner.

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Here are some pictures of my old car: At the Dixie Region SCCA Solo 2 At my old apartment in Tallahassee (with ZSAK's old car, he used to go by CobraSak) At Central Florida Region SCCA Solo 2
