Finally found a watercooled and aircooled shop within a 3 mile radius from where im at. Had the 997 and 911 serviced. Reasonable prices and worth the wait at this awesome place
Rolled through some stop signs on the way to my shop due to broken shifter cable...
Bright side: Numeric shifter cable, Function First Tranny Mounts, Function First Engine Mounts, and a tranny fluid flush happening. Oh, and while we're at it I figure I may as well go ahead and throw some PS4's on there. Looking forward to a whole lot of new feelings.
Installed what I like to call the "super Gundo" yesterday. Pic below is essentially what it looks like, with J pipe in the same area as the PSE along with a pipe between the inlet/outlets.
Wow Super Gundo", wonder how different it is compared with the regular version.
From searching, others who have done this mod and compared it to the "regular" say that it is louder. It's certainly loud but not obnoxious. Some say there is a little bit of low end torque loss, however - I don't track the car, so it doesn't matter much to me. If there is, it's not super noticeable.
I installed new interior door levers (the silver handles). I bought the car used and it had a gouge on the passenger side handle and typical wear on the drivers side. Annoyed me to no end. Now they're pretty again.
All it takes is about 5 minutes, a T20 screwdriver and $320 for 2 new handles. Easy peasy, pull the handle, wedge something under the lever to keep it out, remove the torx screw, slip it off, slip the new one on and put the screw in.
Drove it after changing the manual trans gear lube last night. I wasn't impressed with the shifts on the test drive last night, but now I can shift into first on a roll below 10MPH. Bonus.
(Why did my autocorrect capitalize "trans" in the middle of a sentence...hmmm, strange)
New Titanium lugs from Acer Racing.com on my 2010 Carrera S wheels.
Well, I dressed her wheels with Titanium lugs from Acer Racing.com. Under $200 delivered in 3 days and really look nice, the oem steel lugs rusted in less than a week after polishing them. Improved the sound with the installation of a Fister Sports Exhaust including a Sharkwerks cross over pipe. Sounds great!
