Doug isnt wrong. Hated digital instruments all my life till I got into the GT3 and never looked at the analogue dials once, barring the Tacho. Couldnt even see the speedo properly. Large Digitial digits embedded into the Tacho is what I used and set the side dial up with a digital sisplay of water temp, oil temp and oil pressure (air cooled die hard) or tyre PMS screen (I used this to correlate direct to tyre temps).....times are a changin. I doubt youll look at the speedo much dial Pete, although I appreciate it needs to be done for resale etc...

Doug - appreciate the photos. Guys you are making some sense here. Since it doesn't need to be done and given the prominence of the digital read, I'm tending to the idea of leaving it for now.

That's about the same cost as an SVP cayman conversion on a cheap donor. Looks the business for sure. |

Yes that makes a good one pretty compelling. Working out how I could have 3 p-cars garaged. I think the Cayenne may have to go but I'm struggling to face selling her to make more room. I'm lusting over Dave's 64. Spent time last night pouring over it and making the dogs in the street bark. Lots to think about over this coming long weekend.
As for potential 964 ownership, I think you are heading in the absolutely right direction with Dave's car. You can pat the Boxster goodbye and join Herman and I on the epic Tour, safe in the knowledge the 964 is built like a tank and that car has been sorted. Many of is with suspect suspensions would love to start with everything sorted for cents on the dollar. |
Cont. when you get back the Boxster will be on pristine condition. When you go to the track you just get in the track tyre and race pad equipped car and go. No changing wheels and pads every three or four weeks.

Not really an issue as a racecar? Only a problem if you wanted to road register.

Been dealing with Herman's shark fin tonight. To any other 964 owners, the fin is detached by undoing the two screws under the fin and then undoing the two bolts in the wheel well. You DON'T pull the fin off its clips. Otherwise they go loose and eventually fail. Non 964 owners do not know how hard it is to get one looking like this after some gorilla has been in there before.

Sam, that looks god damn jaw droppingly beautiful! It has to be the most stunning 964 in the group now. The stnace and height is just perfect! Without doubt you will drop 2 seconds next time at HD I guarantee it. The confidence this set up will give you alone will make it seem faster still.
Great worth, worth every penny... |
