Steve,

Looking nice. I have the 930s wheel in my Carrera and love it! What do you think of the 4-speed box?

The 4 speed box is very different than what I am used to. Very long gears. I kinda like it. I don't feel rushed between gears.

I put almost the same wheel in mine except it had the porsche crest in the middle. I like it a lot better than the stock one (which I kept for "originality")....especially becasue without power steering, the larger wheel circumference makes gripping and turning a bit easier when you're not moving.

Personally I like the four speed with the long gears....but on one rally tour, we went up a winding mountain road and some of the cars kept slowing down making it difficult to find a gear that would work...I was either winding too tight or lugging. But on the track or the road, you can keep the rpms right and it's a blast....especially taking an onramp!

Sadly, I'm in europe through the 5th of Feb, then to New Orleans for my son's birthday. Back in AZ on the 14th. I'll PM you when I get back and we can go scare the locals!!

She's a beauty! I miss my 86,930 except when it was hot out. My a/c was terrible. I had a ssk in mine and it really improved the shifting.
