I've been waiting for this book for over a year! Great to see that it is now out.

 

Awesome book Wayne! My wife ordered through Amazon as a Christmas present or I would have requested the signed copy.. Oh well. Its a wonderful resource and I suspect it will be even more useful as boxsters get older.. Everyone buy a copy!

 

If you have 5 minutes, can you please put in a review onto Amazon.com?

Thx,

Wayne

 

No problem Wayne.

 

Just received my copy from amizon last night. This thing is awesome! I've been searching for the "right" Boxster S for a while now and I'll feel a lot more confident making a final decision with this book in hand.

I'll be getting feedback to amizon.com for review. Great job Wayne!

 

Thanks for the kind words!

I just added some kind words too on Amazon!

 

Just ordered..Thanks

 

Just purchased a 986 last week, and now this book over at Pelican Parts. Thanks Wayne!

 

Lucky you! Seems the book is selling very well as mine is on back-order and no ETD from Amazon Int'l...
Unfortunately, buying direct through Pelican = int'l shipping fee priced higher than the book itself!
Too bad...

 

It's about $15-$20 to ship the book (3+ lbs) Internationally.

I was just informed by a reader of my book that Project #17 is somewhat unclear with respect to the torque values used to tighten the idler pulleys. I just added this information to the corrections page on http://www.101projects.com/Boxster/corrections.htm :

Page 81, "Replacing Belt Tensioners", the torque values listed for tightening the pulleys require additional clarity. Tighten the pulleys to the following values:

Upper Pulley:
- 34 ft-lb (46 Nm) for the upper bolt if it's an M10x145 (8.8) bolt
- 48 ft-lb (65 Nm) if it's an M10x145 (10.9)

Lower Pulley:
- The lower pulley is tightened to 17 ft-lb (23 Nm) only

Really Wayne? I wish this was the case because I would have ordered from Pelican w/o any hesitation.
See below and tell me what I've done wrong...(living in Tokyo-Japan)

 

Let me find out - maybe there's something extra-expensive about Japan. Those rates come straight from the USPS API.
