Day off, great weather. Took a nice drive and gave her a good bath.

I promise professional pics are coming. I might be the worlds worst iphone photographer.

On the down side, one of my tires still leaks and tireracl told me to more or less pound sand today.

And of course the app won't load, and the" new" pic loader isn't working either.

Without digging out paperwork, I think I've had my 964 a year now. What a year it's been

Full motor rebuild
Full transmission rebuild
Interior gutted and done rs style
Suspension upgrade
Lighting upgrade
Hidden stereo
Wheels

And the list goes on

For its birthday I was handed a killer deal. Time to upgrade the brakes. Getting a set of big reds up front with Alcon rotors, and a brembo gt kit for the rear, plus all the parts needs to make it work ( master cyl ect). Just in time for winter

Strongly considering a glass out respray over the winter too

Brakes are on, but I can't pick it up until tomorrow because of my work schedule. Have to say they look positively massive. Tilton mc looks pretty cool too. Also have working brake cooling ducts as an added bonus.
More pics from last weekend coming.,got this one sent as a teaser

Wow man, serious brake hardware. 0-100 real quick. No more ABS?

Any pics of the MC components prior to installation and under the carpet?

Still has abs, just no booster. Picking it up tomorrow so I'll try to get a pic with the carpet pulled back. I decided to keep the carpet and cut around the mc, I think it turned out pretty clean.
I'm hoping my eyes have trouble staying in place

Had a noble m400 which had manual brakes before. Weighed roughly the same as my 964 does, but with another 150+whp. It should be fine.

Went for a drive today..

Brake pedal is definately heavier but I like the feel. Brakes feel as massive as they are. Added bonus now my brake duct guides are actually hooked up to ducts

Next up: paint
New glass, possibly 993 windshield quarter windows and rear windshield.
refinish my wheels. Still deciding on color
new steering wheel (anybody have a ruf wheel for sale?)
oil lines/cooler(s)
new tail lights

And then I have a brand new 115k 1990 964 lol

Wow! Really? Care to elaborate? You're car is super clean as is. But I do see the temptation. They are absolutely stunning! Whatever you decide, please let us know! Did they happen to give you a quote? Is it the $20k that I've seen floating around on here?
