Thanks! This was actually taken 4/13. The biomass that blooms (seemingly overnight) is astounding. I’ll take the same picture again and post in the next few days.

Agree on the wheels! I think the 996 Twists are one of the best wheel designs in history. These are actually GT2 twists, but it’s really the ride height that helps their aesthetic.

Default Love this beauty

Hello from Hong Kong!
Had this turbo for over 5 years, love it more the more i drive it. The gt3 bucket seats really treansform the whole experience.
Just fyi, a 6sp here is about twice the price of a tiptronic.

Those purple hues of summer sunsets give some added pop to midnight blue.

Default New look


Sport Technos are a refreshing change.

So much better. imho

Am tempted to drop the height
Just finished my bi-yearly cut & buff 5 step detail, along with newly refinished Sport Techno's. Got tired of the T Twists..

Thanks.. Saw the Techno's many yrs ago, thought they looked really good.. Back then, never would I have guessed that a turbo was in my future.. Then followed by the "need these wheels"..

Nice.. East/West Clones..
About these spacers, not impressed with the cheap alum lug nuts. Am looking to replace them, so far i've been unable to find any suitable closed end nuts.

ill ask my indy what he used when he installed the coil overs ... i think it was H&R but not sure, they may have been custom made
