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 folks after a lot of searching and trying 964's, 993's and a few others i 've taken the plunge and just picked up a rather sweet 996 in azure blue with the ever popular GT 3 aerokit.......................very happy boy am I so i guess i'll be posting on this section a little more in the future stand by for an avalanche of daft questions...![ ][ ]
Nice, any pics?
And stupid answers.[ ] Cheers,
not yet mate.....just waiting for a day without monsoon or snow and then will get number one daughter on the job ![ ]
I have same but in Black. Mods done are PSE - you will want one of these if you ever hear one. (plus new exhaust tips) HIDS - you will want these if you want to see at night [ ] diff stereo and last week front 7mm and rear 17mm spacers fitted. No more mods for me that's it now [ ] Pics below : http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?act=module&module=gallery&cmd=si&img=502462 http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?act=module&module=gallery&cmd=si&img=502460
Nice car jamma. Black - really is the only colour.[ ]
Very Nice - where did you get the exhaust tips from and how much. Mine original ones won't stay clean.
Design 911 in Essex, website below. 200 quid . http://www.design911.co.uk/index.htm?Region=UK
Nice plate [ ]
Its got some exhaust tips jamma..gembella. Had already heard about the hids...what sort of cost am i looking at there? whats the PSE by the way? nice looking car as well mate...but i would say that [ ]
wash yer mouth out....the only colour is azure blue....but i'll post some pics and let the masses decide ! [ ][ ]
PSE is porsche sports exhaust and the HIDS were 125 quid from www.aceparts.com , you can fit yourself but I paid an indy to fit as I could not risk buggering it up haha Do you live in Yorkshire?
[anorak n] Do you mean Azure Blue, or could it be Zenith Blue? http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/tm.asp?m=230691 [anorak ff]
Zeb, What is the paint code? That will tell people for sure. Don't know where the sticker is. Cheers,
I'm not sure i'll check it tonight
No mate, as my signature says i'm an exiled yorkshireman now in lancashire...[ ]
PSE = Porsche Spare Engine. Useful option for any 996 owner (excl turbos and GT3's)
Only 'cos' they won't let him back into the county.[ ] "Yorkshire, one of the nicest parts of Lancashire" Cheers,
there speaks dorsets finest grumbleweed ![ ] anyroadup...the paint code is 3 AX so thats seems to be azure blue according to that list ?
3AX is Zenith Blue - there is no Azure Blue. Anyway, very nice colour.
Zeb, Can you take some B&W photos on your Box Brownie and post them on here so we can decide for ourselves what colour it is. [ ] Cheers
You don't have to own a 996 to be daft do you Fred![ ][ ]
aha! thanks for clearing that one up richard...zenith blue it is then...I will send word for the salesman to be ritually tarred and feathered ! [ ]
I heard that !
No, but apparently it helps. 996, Sheffield, hasn't got a lot going for him, has he? Cheers,
What's wrong with owning a 996 and living in Sheffield [8D] .......................... even thought the battery is so damn flat I can't open the bonnet to get the jump leads out[ ]
Nothing Veronica as long as you are still living in Sheffield.[8|][ ] You can always sell the 996 for something else. It is when people realise that the grass IS greener on the other side and sneak over the border whilst the guards are having a cuppa.[ ] I'm a Southerner doing missionary work up here in Lancashire so you can imagine what a culture shock is was for me. Cheers,
Drat! I knew there was a good reason everyone raves about it? Anyone got a spare 3.6, mine is in bits!
Rob, What is happening to your engine. Totally cream crackered or repairable? (Didn't have this sort of problem with that trusty 944). Cheers,
Am not entirely sure... I believe it is completely cream crackered, a conrod has let go and caused so much internal damage that the starter motor needs replacing, as does the clutch which is contaminated with oil. Not heard from Bolton since last week as Dealer Principal has been away. Their view seems to be that it's nothing to do with what they did to it last year but I'm not yet sure how they can reach that conclusion given that we don't know (and may never know) what caused it to let go? It is apparently more cost effective to fit a new engine than strip down mine. I am, obviously, at this stage, over the fucking moon!
