The big Iwrin clamp is just a woodworking bar clamp. It has trigger action, which makes it easy to use. In our case, you just flip one end so that the clamping faces are opposite each other. Then you place the fixed end on the brake pedal and the other on the seat bottom, so that you can trigger the seat end in order to depress the brake pedal.

The other tool never locked in place. It always slipped. Worthless POS.

What size compressor is a good balance between size and portability, if I am going to pack it into the car?

There is also this fire extinguisher that's large enough for PCA:

I found the Michelin Care and Feeding Guide good in the past for dialing in setup. I've not found one for the MPSC2 vs the MPSC but I think this is helps gets things dialed in.

I guess, but it's easy to search Tire Rack. The nice thing about many of the items now is that the only way you would find them is by spending hours and hours searching or starting a new thread every time. I'm sure I am missing a lot of hard to find stuff. I haven't even received my GT3 yet, so I'll be adding more things as I need them (or any suggestions posted here)

Default Oil Filter

Mayor
We need to find a source for oil filters besides the stealership. I have looked high and low for comparable filter with no luck. Here is a photo of the filter on my car. I plan to keep looking. There must be a cross reference filter.

For how infrequently I change it, I guess $55 from suncoast doesn't seem like a big deal, but if you do find one, I'll gladly replace the link so everyone can benefit.

I guess Mayor I hate paying 55.00 for a 5.00 oil filter. Porsche seams to have the manufacturer Mahle tied up other wise we would have some competition.

Does anyone know of any other jacks that will fit under the GT3 with the jackpot stand caps?

Someone asked about a collapsible breaker bar to fit in the frunk. I use this one: Matco, PN 14ADR40T

In case of puncture, is the car equipped for a wheel change ?

Assuming we manage to bring her to any garage to change the damage tyre (supposedly while on a trip in another country and no Porsche dealer around) ?

If not what shall we buy to be equipped for such an occurence ?

No. Probably easiest to just tow to your favorite shop. No one is likey the have the tire in stock near you.
