I think (like the clock) it just comes down to upgraded & more accurate readings.

BTW... RED is awesome. Stay the course!
Great! I will make a note of that for when I send mine in.

On the color, yes, I agree. I know I would regret it down the line if I went with any color other than original on this one... I will get the Koni shocks, at least I will have something orange in the car

I think I am at about the half way point boys & girls.

Today I fiddled with the windshield & door threshold trim. I looked at the shelves & thought to myself "self, the shelves are getting empty"

My temp gauge moves only when the temp gets to the halfway mark and I rev the motor. I wonder if my sensor is getting bad

The wheels do look deep, but they are flat 6's all around.

I would think you would want to try another temp sensor. Your sensor may have lost its sensitivity. I have my factory one on the shelf if you want to try it. It was a good unit. Just say the word.

Yeah, the 912 zone here at Rennlist was a tad weak about a year ago. But with the flurry of activity from you / me / ECS / Ultra / etc its gotten a bit of deserved attention now.

We are all doing a lot & its a fun read.

Today I took my headlights apart for repainting of the internal rim. I am going to keep putting glass in the car and get it back out to the bodyshop for a final buff soon. I got to get to my Spec Miata this month (engine refresh) too...

Spec Miata? Is that the battery? I think it's great you two got this forum going! Maybe some of the 912R guys will start jumping on. My wife says I've been on the computer too much the last year but it's all Porsche. I've never been on line daily before. It was only doing work stuff. I actually work outside but have always done by bidding, billing and the likes in the evening. I don't do any of that on-line though.
