Default SOMEHOW IM A NEW MEMBER (Intro)

Hey everybody,just checking in.Not sure how I havnt joined before today as I am freequent flyer on allot of other P car forums.I have a lightweight 82 911 SC and I just purchased a Grand Prix 993 last month.Talk about opposite ends of the spectrum,Day and night/salt and pepper/good and evil but love em both.

the 993 has B&B mufflers/eibach springs/RUF wheels (for now)/hollow spokes and Michelin SS tires going on this week,Techart tail/chin spoiler and SS door sills.cashmier interior.

Anyway just wanted to say hi as I am about to start digging into this 993 and am starting with Fister stage III muffler as the B&B is not to my liking.Here are some pics of my babies.

Thanks,suppose I should put a few more of the 993,I also had her chipped and Dyno tuned last week.





















Also got the true hollow spokes ready to go on and save me some weight,ordered the new Michelin Pilot Super Sport in 225/40/18 fronts and 265/35/18 rears (installing Friday).

Welcome, Nippy. Great pics! I've got an '82 and a '96. Looks like you're personalizing the 993, too. Beautiful car.
