Santa did his shopping on Rennlist, FD Turbo mufflers from FisterD and a set of Turbo twist hallow wheels from Pewter82. Need to get those mufflers on ASAP.

Chris Walrod "wins"!!!!

Tony, your board is sweet-looking .

JD, that's one sexy shot of a remote reservoir. I like your lomo stuff (it is lomo, right?)

Steve - I hope your 2010 is better than 2009. I love the build quality of the Macs.

Lomo... Yes. But not many good car shots with the Lomo. I haven't taken any pics lately, have to get back into the swing of things...

Sweet. Definitely need one of these. I dread having to lug out the Shopvac everytime, which results in the interior getting dirtier than it should be.

I agree, Chris Walrod "wins"!

My car got a set of Moton Motorsport triples and a box full of suspension goodies from Steve at Rennsport.

If any of you local guys are bored this winter and want lend a hand with the install let me know

Santa came a little early for me, and brought me JasonF's C4



I can't really mention it without thanks to Jason who has taken great care of the car, and made the transaction easy, Robbie Provost of Provost Motor Sports in Bordentown, NJ, who did the PPI, a few smaill repairs and baby sat until the shipper could pick up the car, Plycar auto shippers (booked through High End Transport) who picked the car up in NJ and delivered it in CA in a week (in December!).

And thanks to all of you who opined, emailed, looked at, test drove and chatted with me during my loooooong search. Rennlist is a great place thanks to all of you!

The GF (now Fiance) got me a signed Publishers edition of this: http://www.amazon.com/Porsche-Protot...e=UTF8&s=books as well as a battery maintainer for the Porsche.

Very Cool.

Couldn't resist sharing this : I was after a simpler system than making up rear foot well speaker boxes to enhance the hifi with low volume base. Santa had just the ticket: JVC powered subwoofer CS-DA1 http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...VC+CS-DA1.html with a built-in amp and remote volume control with auto boost toggle mounted under the streering column. The subwoof simply rests perfectly on the rear seat squab as if purpose tailored to fit and unplugs from the wiring loom if I need to remove it for any reason. And wow .... packs a wallop too. 1/2 Vol is more than enough for me.

Sean-- Sounds like a great solution FWIW, this sonicElectronix.com link currently claims they only have 1 left in stock: "JVC CS-DA1 - 170W Max, 8" Powered Active Subwoofer System with Wired Remote ($179.99)." No affiliation. In fact, I have no trace of a stereo in my 993; just know RL bass-heads have been looking for a removable, pre-manufactured sub solution for years.

Sometimes, no webz sleuthing required... a friend simply sent the following photo to me

Cool coincidence: he happens to be a RLer with a Turquoise Blue 993 WB beauty, but I don't think he's seen this thread or directly-related ones recently. I feel like the TMZ.com of Rennlist.

He's also a mutual friend of Dean's! SansH2O approved this for posting: shipper unloading her on Christmas eve, home on the west coast:
