John, I did some research on iPhone mounts. Came up with a variety of options but decided to go with one that a 993 mate in Australia swore by. Its all billet alloy construction anodised black. Bit pricey but solid, secure and nicely designed. It has a adjustable grip which I figures would work with my Mophie 2100 mah extended battery case as I dont want to run a wire to the iPhone (just charge it up ever few days). They do it in silver too. Its free shipping as its designed in Oz.

BTW I see your brake ducts are on Trademe and heard that the cage is likely sold as well. What else is on the block now?

I really dont think they look as good on the 993 IMO and you loose sight of those nice red brembos and drilled rotors. They look good up to and including 964 Gen.

Yeh, right. I see the 993 boys on Rennlist are looking at a group buy. Soon these wheels will be more common place. In the meantime their price is the only thing saving me from seeing a similar set up in NZ.

On 993's fuchs must be all black like an 80's Porsche and not have exposed petal's like a 70's Porsche.

Personally - I really don't like 911's with stock or more likely tired original suspension. They really need to be 'dialed in' to drive like a 911 should.

Talking about coloured brake calipers, I really like the look and stance of this 993, especially the yellow calipers - which normally indicate carbon disks. What is the general consensus on painting calipers yellow when not having carbon disks - is this a "not the done thing".
I love the stance of this car, once the PSS10's are installed, the brief will be the make the cars stance look like this (instead of a Kabota)

It will still be an animal underneath, the kw v3 will likely stay because of the size of the job ripping it out and the resultant net gain might not be worth it

Cage has a new home, ducts were an easy list so on their way out. Other stuff needs unbolting but soon to go will be race seat and rails, cup bypass - although that is a crap job to get that out - wheels and tyres.... I should make a list and offer it around i suppose. I am actually looking forward to driving a civilised road car for a while.
Personally, I would leave the cup pipe in. I don't find them overly noisy and they enhance the flat six experience. Same with the suspension (a decision you've already made). The seat removal will probably bring the biggest change for daily driving, but surely you are going to use those race pads until they are worn out, so that must be some way off.
Give me a yell when you take the you know what off. I'm in build mode right now.

Paul, you should do what YOU like. We might tease a bit but it's your car and like Pete says we enjoy molesting and personalising them
