Hung out at the local PCA fundraiser

Only one of two 993s to attend. Plenty of admirers though

Got the 993 detailed, had all the dings on the various panels removed via paintless dent repair, and bought a new indoor car cover for it.

Picked mine up from Exotech with M033 springs and Koni FSDs , Refresh control arms w/ ERP sport bushings and new ball joints. What a difference ! Old was stock fronts and tired Bilstein sport rears.

Took a couple of ferry rides. You don't always realize just how small the car is until you see it directly next to other vehicles...

I finally got around to installing the FD Motorsports, Goldenrod and new nylon ball cups. My shift linkage was pretty tight feeling to begin with, so I'm not really noticing a huge improvement in shift precision.

More direct click feeling, as I run through the gears but I also have RS motor mounts and the existing nylon ball cups looked to be in fairly good condition. So maybe thats part of the original tight feeling, shift linkage equation...

The real beauty of the whole exercise was that I got to inspect underneath the panels in the front end that needed to be removed, and everything looks shipshape with no leaks. Twas a good day despite the girlfriend dumping me 2 days ago; so I really enjoyed the therapy!

Went for a run on Skyline but several "one lane" portions with signals due to road repairs. Returned home and detailed car with Adams Quick Detailer........
