Option 408 for 993's provided solid turbo twist in 8 X 18 ET 52 and 10 X 18 ET 65 for the narrow body 993. Good looking wheels.

Bought a nice new tire inflator from FCP Euro and inflated my tires to 40 PSI (at 32F) for winter.

Latest mods: Rothsport racing short shift kit with custom smoked oat shift ****, Recaro vinyl sportster seats, Fister stage 2 exhaust, Porsche Momo steering wheel, custom ignition bezel, all work thanks to an enthusiast friend in town who works for Titan Motorsports as his day job and does these sort of jobs after hours.

I’m kind of obsessed with this car. Anyone want to buy a mint 89 Carrera, or (god forbid mentioning this in this forum), a 981 Spyder? This 993 is the end all be all street car for me!

What did I do for my 993? Made it mine. Nice to be back in an air cooled car again.

Looks good. Black is a great color on these cars. Are those the Sportster seats?

They appear to be Sportster CS seats, I have a custom upholstered pair in my Pro Touring muscle car. I do want another set for my 993, they are great seats.

Thnaks. It's a '96 with 63k miles. I'm the third owner, always a North Carolina car. Mostly original except the coilovers and twists. I'll make a few mechanical mods but leave it alone for the most part.
