Post Hmmm - what next - favourite mods

Own a 96 993 Coupe. And I love it! Came with PSS.

Done the Motor Sound, ordered RSR's, I've done 18" wheels and love them, ordered the FPB, upgraded the shifter and emergency brake to carbon and upgraded my sills to "stainless Carrera" - mostly cosmetic stuff,

Ok, in order of one to five what mods would you do next?

Hmm Techart short shifter? Is this priced similar to the factory version? Which car do you have it on Danny?

I should be getting a Tilton carbon/carbon clutch and flywheel setup soon

Danny already had op notch mods (I wish that my vallet at the moment would have anough stuff in it to tranny & flywheel...)

Anyways, here are some (believe, there are more!):

-RS Sways & Camber plates/monoballs (if you don't have them)
-Clear turn signals & get rid of bumperettes (front & rear)
-Recaros
-Big Reds
-RS carpets (dump the rear sears etc. this might be little 'extreme' for most though)
-RS Splitters & Wing

I have the short shifter on the race car, I got it from Gert on a package deal along with the Motorsports Steering wheel. Not sure about the comparo with pricing, check with Gert for this. I really like the short shifter, quality stuff as always from TechArt, smooth short action, when i get around it it's going to go in the cab as well.

Danny,

Did you install the shifter by yourself?

It's pretty easy isn't it? Do you by any chance have any DIY shots?

Thanks!

No, I did not do it myself. The car was getting preped for the race at my mechanics and this was a last minute purchase on an offer from Gert along with the motorsports steering wheel so I did not have time to play with it.
The only thing I did myself was the install of a carbon/aluminum 993 **** using the stock boot after my mechanic had installed the shifter. That was pretty easy it took me about an hour to do and the result is really good.
