Default So I drove Boulderbobo's PSS10 w/FD Stage II/GR & SS: WOW!

Today Boulderbobo came over to look at my 993 and give me the opportunity to drive his ride. I was excited since the PSS10 suspension was something I have been considering. He also has the Fister D short shift kit along with the Golden Rod and Stage II exhaust. Man does that vehicle handle awesome. The shifts are clean and crisp and the sound is mean. The bad part of the ride was getting out Now I have a real desire to drop some serious cash on my ride. Damn you Bob!!

Yes, the first time is free. The next will cost you.

Welcome to the slippery slope; you've been officially bit.

Yep, I have all three mods (exept I have the ROW M030 w/ Bilstiens) and they are the best bang for the buck. Some of the best mods BTW. Add the RS shifter and you will really get the feel for the car.

Same here. I did the PSS10 install, GR, SSK, Stage 2 exhaust 2 weeks ago and have been waiting to STOP driving the car everyday, take a break, and post a note of thanks. It's a transformative experience. And my wife now knows it's me, not my neighbor's 993, pulling up.

Hey Chris, It was a pleasure to meet you today. Your car is a stunning example of a low mileage 993. It is like going in a time machine, it is in such a preserved condition.

I can't wait for the p-car get together at your shop.

Thanks for the kind words about the GRR. I don't think you need to be in any rush to change out the suspension in your ride.

Can you please explain to us what that thingamagig is on your front license plate? Hmmmmmmm.

Are these cars AWESOME or WHAT?



Bob-

I love posts with pics. Thanks Bob.

Oh yeah, Chris, let your credit card company know there'll be some "larger" purchases coming. Wouldn't want your ride down the slope to be held up in any way!

Great pics. Both cars look amazing! Now that's the garage set-up I am look for. Bob, I'm looking forward to getting together with you soon and sharing some new project ideas. Chris, what part of town are you in?

The pics turned out great Bob! Thanks for stopping by. The garage is a "work" in progress as you all can see from the pictures. Hopefully by Tuesday the 4 post lift will be complete and the mess can be cleaned up! I have been working out the "man den" for 1.5 month and man what a project it has been. I hope to have some local "mod days" when it is complete and "yes" Bob you can change your oil at my house and what ever else you want to do to the car so I can watch and learn!!

I am going to organize one at my house when the "man den" is all complete. I will keep you informed. We have 5 individuals so far.

Only thing better than our wonderful weather:
seeing your beautiful 993s out enjoying it!

Your P-cars look perfect -- great pics

PS If you haven't seen Patrick's thread on the 993 Turbo forum; more Colorado 993 scenery:

Your not suppose to tell anyone about the weather Remember, it always snows here and is real cold so it is not worth moving here
