Swapped out the Prototipo wheel for the Mod.07. It’s definitely better.

Thanks Nam. I went with the BendPak HD9 XW which is a couple inches wider and taller than the standard HD9. I added one rolling bridge jack. I was a little worried about doing maint with a 4 post lift but for the oil change it went quite well. As you can see you have a nice base for the triage from the oil tank!

Filled the gas tank after its first month and ~200 miles with me and replaced the old disintegrated oil filler accordion!

I was actually a couple of days ago now, but I played hooky on a beautiful Friday, installed the oil fan cooler mod cable from Kappi2907 (it only took a few minutes) and set off for a drive in the 993 through Eastern North Carolina to eat some wonderful BBQ at a place called Southern Smoke and visit some friends and their lovely historic home in the little town of Southport.

About 350 miles of driving, all told. I consider it a day well spent!


Southern Smoke BBQ in Garland, NC


Fantastic BBQ!


A lovely old house in a great small town

How do you like the Ruf bar? How hard was it to install and have you noticed a difference in the front end? I am considering one. Thanks

Picked up my car after having H&R Street coilovers installed. Amazing difference! Will have a pair of 8-year-old, 18k miles, front Bilstein HDs (B6? I think) up for sale soon.
