After owning a relatively heavily modified 964, I was adamant that I would not get too involved in modifying the 993. I guess a lot of it had to do with reliability and the fact that I didnt want to feel exhausted upon arriving at work each morning (my 964 was an absolute dog to drive daily due to heavy engine mods, lack of sound proofing against a loud exhaust etc).

Having said that, I have a couple of mods now on the 1995 993 C2 narrow body 6 speed in the time that I have owned it, but all largely aesthetic. They include the following-

Body:
Techart front splitters
Techart brake ducts with fogs
C2S rear split grill (absolutely love this the most)
Clear turn indicators
Red European rear indicators

Wheels:
Porsche 17" cup 2 rims with Bridgestone S02s
Porsche 17" 996 "twist design"with Contisport N1s (terrible tires)
RUF 18" rims with Michelin Pilot Sport N0's (soon to be sold)
18" Work 3 piece mesh rims...taking 2 months to arrive!!!

Suspension:
M030 sway bars
M030 springs
Bilstein HD shocks

Engine:
Motor Sound package
Gemballa exhaust tips

Anybody else care to share the mods they now have on their car ..... of course at the end of the day I realise I am just hitting the tip of the iceberg when I see some of the stuff you all have already done....but its always fun to see how crazy some of you are....

ViperBob, does 1) mean that you are getting bad bump steer? I am at RS height and don't find it a problem....

2) what coil did you use? Any compatibility issues?

Cheers, Maurice

I haven't done much, but never planned to spend money on anything but maintenance when I bought it. Most are standard options for the 993 but mine didn't have them when I bought it. Nothing fancy but still translates into unplanned cash. Some of you guys really have incredible cars!
