Yes, that's a real GT2 flanked by a 993 RS and a 964 RS euro version...

Just got an alignment at RRT in NoVA a week after installing my H&R springs. Perfect street specs $199 - feels awesome.

Good to hear. I picked up mine with H&R springs and the cornering on rough roads was pretty bad. Turns out it had been aligned for track use (toe in at the front). I'm due to have that fixed on Friday.

I honestly think the H&R springs ride better than OEM. They feel less bouncy, maybe due to progressive.. which makes me not understand why some say they are bouncy. PASM is actually tolerable now compared to stock. OEM springs with PASM on was very stiff/bouncy and untolerable over rough roads, and now with the H&Rs it seems less harsh.

I finally got around to repairing my bad microphone for my Tookie hands free, integrated phone system. Back to normal ops again!

Default Repaired Door Handle

Went to open the door after parking in the garage. Pulled on the handle and POP! Handle went limp....no tension pulling the handle back in. Ordered part from Suncoast Parts. Removed driver side door panel and installed new door handle axle by watching YouTube. Thank you YouTube for step by step and removing door panel and axle installation guide.

Changed my shift cables on my 997.1. It wasn't as bad as I thought.

Now that I have the console out I am in the process of painting it Arctic Silver.
