Default Hello!

Hello all. New to the forum here, trying to sap up as much information as possible. This is the 'ol lady's ride

2003 996TT, 16.5k miles.

K24's, AWE intake, Fabspeed exhaust, Sachs clutch, GIAC software + tune. Wondering what to do next, thinking about Kevin's ported headers - and the X73 suspension kit to bring the front end down.

I look forward to learning a ton more!

Cheers.

-Eric

Thanks!

Yes, as the gentleman said above, they are Champion RG5's. Possibly looking to put them up for sale.

Thanks! And yes you are correct, that was at the Promenade. Love Supercar Saturdays.

I live in Elk Grove, kinda near Woodfield mall to be exact. How about yourself?

Nice ride,

Do you have a source for that x73 suspension? I would like one too, but was under the impression this was not available anymore?
