Get my 993 finished and back on the road in a couple of months. It has been a long haul from the day that my lift crushed the car roof. It will be stunning, can't wait!!!! Also, to just drive that thing!!!

my plan (for 993 TT)

DIY: RS engine mount
DIY: muffler bypass
DIY: billet diverter valve
DIY: rope or Pedro's Ice Wax for windshield squeak fix
??DIY: billet lower valve covers (Will for sure DIY if it is done, but not sure if needing it)
suspension (Bilstein PSS9 or HD+H&R)
DIY: new stereo head unit to accept iPod

Drive like I stole it (I thought I had stolen it until the fix/mod bug bit)

Next year: Kevin's UMW upgrades (first gotta know it well stock before mods, and have to make reservation for 2009 starting NOW knowing how busy Kevin is)

And if really ambitious, tear into the engine for new guides and some yet undecided tweaks.
What cool prototype 993 stuff are you working on. Are these bushings...I am willing to help test them out...I am willing to test anything out...

Track time and then some more track time.

Currently dumping money into an old Datsun 2000 that's being restored, but I might consider doing a few more things to the 993:

New rotors and street pads (ordering these tomorrow actually)
Rennline dead pedal
ERP camber plates or sell PSS9's and replace with JRZ suspension
RS Door panels

Get a new to me one (Narrow Body, C2) and prep it for club racing...Many parts already in boxes from the previous 993, but others are already in storage: motons, RS sways, Aux oil Cooler, Recaro Pole Positions, Cage, Short Shift, LWF & Clutch, install G2X, RS door panels, etc...the list is too long.

Then get to the track and back into racing. Hopefully I can be a little more competitive in the racing area than I had been with the 'pig'.

Merry Motoring...

C4S--nothing
'95--nothing
Just pick up a cab whenever "the right one" shows up.
