Never heard of Warehouse33 auto. Do you regularly deal with them?

I've ordered from Jason @ warehouse33 several times when I need replacement parts. Never an issue, great prices and thus far everything has been in stock and delivered *extremely* fast.

I installed front and rear spacers to get rid of some of the space and gain a little more track width. I notice a slight difference in the way it drives..

Pushed her a little bit on some corners last night while test driving and seems to understeer a little less, does that make sense? Could just be I was driving a little more cautious. Under normal driving, car feels a little more stable. I'm pretty sensitive to changes with my background in motorcycle racing, but it also could be in my head.

Here's a couple before and after, plus one with a coworker's GT3 for good measure ... Need suspension next to, hopefully pick up JRZs and GT3 swaybars before the summer is over.

Agree with the gloss black looking good. Not sure many other colors can pull it off well, but Speed Yellow does.

Accidently bought hollow spoke twists and then realized I already had hollow spokes. Somehow I really thought I had solids. At least now I can have a set powder coated black and drive around still. The good thing is I got them at a great price so I won't lose money when I sell one of the sets.

Meridian looks great, it's Nice to have a car that changes colors. I know, i've got one just like yours.

Mine is in The hospital.



What a minor Oil drop does. As The motor is down I changed a lot of things that appear not right. A little noise in The exaust, and is changed. I'm at €8.000 already, and counting. But it will be like new.

What did I do? Took delivery today, hopped in and got gas and then took off like a screaming banshee. Went through quarter tank of gas like it was water then parked it and stared. Wow...just...freaking...wow. Gobs of power...the sound with rhe sport exhaust for the x50. Just wow.

Wavetech lsd installed in the Vancouver turbo. I know many prefer the Guards but the shop in Van isnt a guard authorized dealer to install so went with wavetech instead. Hope it is still just as good, finger crossed.

I think you'll be pleased. I had one of these in a 987S and it was excellent. When the time comes, I'll follow this path with the 996TT. BTW, this is a made in the USA product, by nicely done.
