Most 1995s have no key-fob immobilizer and are key-only affairs (someone correct me but I think later 95s got the immobilizer). So yes, I lock/unlock with the key, the way God had intended
...actually, not sure I need that smiley considering the immobilzer's track record speaks of itself

It's Momo mod08 from FVD. The kit includes the airbag delete resistor and the hub extension. Very nice wheel!

Took some video of the Dansk exhaust (full exhaust with headers etc.), as my friend did a short test drive:

Yeah, yeah rub it in. Who's got not one but TWO 993s with bolt on fender flares and bad-*** race preparations? ... That guy over in Finland.

Ok I admit I might be a bit jealous of your stable.

My CUP engine is getting rebuilt so I cannot race it this weekend... Therefore the only possible outcome was to fit the 993 with necessary safety gear and race that instead. :thumb up:
And while we were at it:

Moton Clubsports
RS stabilisers
Tarrett droplinks
RS/GT2 uprights
RS tierod ends (pinned of course)
Motorsport hubs and centre locks
Rennline monoball camber plates/shock upper mounts

The safety equipment:

Heigo cage (already installed)
Sparco racing seat
Scroth 6-point belts (with button release = street legal = Touristenfahte legal)
Main switch with remote pull
Extinguisher

Then corner balance and alignment, slap on stickers and some slicks (the wheels from my CUP are a perfect fit btw.) and we are ready to race!

I hate you.................

That said, I'm glad that car got some gt2 uprights! It was needing them something awful.

Have fun!
