Game Changer, I rank this up there with installing LWB in my car. Massively improves the human to machine connection.

Kept losing my keys. So I got this diecast car, 2 d rings, a magnetic quick disconnect, and I printed a wall mount for the car.

Now I can just grab it on the way out, or pop it back on on the way in.

Does the diecast car match your real car? Cool I like it.

Nah, I couldn't find a 991.2 carrera S die cast. It's the right color at least.

Default The best

Single best mod I have done. FYI the shift will feel super stiff at first and takes ~two weeks of driving until it breaks in.

Thanks! Was expecting the stiffness (similar to GT4?) especially as I specced the stiffer spring.

Carbon fiber - can there be too much? It’s an addiction! The bd chrono eyelid was going to take till October so I bought one on eBay, quality seems great. Anyone done the inner sills in carbon fiber as well?

The first time you drive it, it will be stiffer than the GT4 and will take some effort to shift. I was sore from the gym the day before and really struggled, lol. I also used the stiffer spring, and it's absolutely perfect now. Give it two weeks of drive time and then let us know what you think!

With the cables, you will get some new noises, especially if you coast in 7th. I love the new sounds, but I know they would bother some people.

Bought this and posted a while back...finally got around to putting it in. VR Performance prototype kit, catless. Still needing to install the headers yet, but everything is rusty....need to muster up and replenish my energy..this was enough to deal with for the time being.

Didn’t buy it today, but it was delivered. Dissident ducktail. Was just test fitting. Will get it all dialed in after paint.
