Congrats! Welcome! A great looking car!

If you think the regulator was fun, wait until you change the sparkplugs!
That made for a fun weekend.

Default Thanks!

Thanks for all the kind words, everyone! So far she's been a dream, good mix of super car and daily driver.

I'll frequent the forum, but until I get my Porsche chops up, I'll be reading more than posting.

I've used this for decades! A couple of sprays on each floor mat, and I am set!

Thanks folks!!

They cracked the badge when moving it to the aero lid, so I'm gonna replace it, putting it on centered in process.

Lowering it!! With the stock 18" wheel/tires I have now (not gonna replace those at the moment) how much drop and what kit do you recommend?

the deal is here and now - a fellow RL has a set of PSS9's for CHEAP - BUY THEM and you can set your own ride height!

he posted them on ebay, but you can ask him if your are interested in this - I would do it, but bought a differant set up about 1/2 as good for about 1/2 the price but the install and alignment costs are the same... sort of dumb on my behalf
