Does anyone have the instructions to perform this programming? I have my PIWIS tester and I'm pretty sure the value is changed under Maintenance of Vehicle Data, but not 100%.
If anyone has a solid answer on how to perform this programming, please post up!
I would also be very interested in having
this done...if technically possible. I just
acquired a 2017 .2 991S coupe a manual
transmission, 'Sport Package' & Sport Pasm.
And I sold my 'Signal Green' 2015 .1 991
gt3 one month ago. I don't really miss the
PDK Plus at all, improved as it was for the
.1 991 gt3! But, upon starting to drive the
.2 991S, I did feel that it lacked the distinctive
steering 'feel' (slightly more weight, etc) of
the gt3. Other than that, I am very happy
with the switch!
If you or anyone finds anything on the topic,
please let me know.
Even if the software is identical, and the actual steering hardware is identical as well, the geometry of the car (suspension, bearings, etc.) and not to mention the different tires, would probably contribute just as much to steering "feel" as the actual software and hardware would.

Agree. The only way to get your 911 variant to handle and feel like a GT3, is to buy a GT3.

Out of curiosity, do you have the PSP (Power steering plus) option?

You should not have mentioned tires. The
ones in my .2 991S are the same size(s) as
in my .1 991 gt3! But there might be other
mechanical differences in the two that could
prevent getting the exact same feel. But it
might be able to be improved.

Nonsense! I HAVE bought a gt3 & I like this
.2 991S better than my .1 991 gt3...except
for the steering feel. And if I can't improve
it, so be it. It's still a better car for my purposes!

from political circles that are
un-democratic & authoritarian.

No, I posted my specs on the thread
reported about my recent acquisition
on this forum. And it doesn't have
Power Steeering Plus. It does have
'Rear Axle Steering' like my old gt3!

So being a wiseass is only ok if you're name is Eduardo?
Yes, I like to inject some humor into my posts sometimes. Oh well.
I read enough and have driven the GT variants enough to have an educated opinion on .1's, .2's, and GT's. Go look at all my threads I have started. Actually I know you have. You can be the King of Rennlist so don't worry about the competition. I like to fly under the radar anyway.
You should be more upset with all the ridiculous threads on RL these days.
I'll email Porsche and see if they can add a GT3 suspension package to the Carrera models. Of course, that same buyer will add PSP to it and complain about the low clearance

You are probably confusing
'wise' with 'wiseass'?

I love humor. But when it
crosses into mocking decisions
made by owners about what
to do on the cars they own,
I think it's wiser not to be
too critical!

Well, you have been fairly critical of the
.1 991 gt3 in your HFS threads to the
point of perhaps even damaging the
values of those cars in the US used car
market. Now that we have the extended
warranty on those engines from PAG,
hopefully you will be more careful in the
words used re: these vehicles. Loose
lips do sink ships!

I am the 'King of Nothing', to quote from
one of my old 'Seals & Crofts' songs! But
I would not say you like to 'fly under the
radar' with your posts & threads. Perhaps
your next **Official** thread might be
the bridge too far in the 991 gt3 forum for
you! Don't you think you should leave that
to the folks that own a gt3 or are ordering
a gt3? We will find out soon enough!

I am. That is why I would hate to see
you guys turn this forum into that. So
something for you to think about!

Maybe that is the difference
between you & me, George.
I have folks all over the US,
Canada & Europe that invite
me to meet with them when
they know I am in their area.
Perhaps if you try to be nicer,
they'll want to be with you too!

I'll let my threads speak for themselves and their views/posts. See any complaints there? Anyone can go look them up. Very comprehensive and informative when talking about the .2 GT3 thread and Hot for Sale. The most in depth information available anywhere on those topics.
Because I'm not actively looking for a pre-owned 991.1 or have an allocation for a .2 GT3, does that mean I can't make contributions on those subjects? Is there something wrong with me actually enjoying my .1 C2S? I don't need to flip cars yearly to show off to the forum crowd.
You write about PTS, deviated stitching, and Exclusive options but when is the last time you ordered a new 911 and used any of those?
As far as "friends", I can't even keep up with the ones I have or spend enough time with my family because of work. Not really looking to be invited over to talk about PTS over wine and cigars around the world.
Anyway Eduardo, you do make some very good contributions to the forum and I won't dispute that. I've gotten to know you well enough to know the rest of your persona. I'll let it rest.
I think I can move on now. Update me with any GT steering software findings. If any small improvements or tweaks can be made to a great car, why not??
