Anyone interested in buying a Halotron fire extinguishers? I just spoke to the agent and he has a few left and I am hoping to pick up 1-2 this weekend. And unlike most other parts/accessories the price is not a substantial premium vs. U.S. prices!

PM, email or call me for info if you are interested.

I drove out to Yuen Long on Saturday to speak to the agent. In addition to Amerex Halatron FE's they also had refilled Halon FEs. I wound up buying a 2.5lb Amerex bottle for ~HK$950 so comparable to prices in the U.S. I will likely pick up a 5lb bottle as well and am awaiting a discount price quote.

I've been looking for a manual tranny wide-body 964 cab off and on for a few years now, and have yet to see one in good condition. Have come across a handful of manual coupes and 1-2 narrowbody cabs, but the wide-body cab remains elusive

Was thinking to pick up an E39 M5 the other day.. Looking about on some car sites as usual but most have rather hopeful prices. Anyone know somebody who has a decent example they would part with?

Hey baneking I think there are a couple out there for sale, 964 cabs but dont think they are in white though. There are white ones but they are hardtop....so guess your friend has to make a choice as to whether to go for any of these or decide to wait and see....

White isn't mandatory. Guards red might be interesting.

Bumble Bee has developed a rather flabby bass and midrandge sound from the speakers. I've seen quite a few threads about how to upgrade the stereo while keeping the stock grilles. Also need to loose the discoball Sony POS head unit and probably upgrade the amp.

Anyone have a suggestion for a shop that can do this without screwing up the stock look?

Hi all, I'm a lucky to-be owner of a 1970 911. Noted that most here in hk are 964 or 993 owners but I am sure you won't mind the oldies, not as quick as the later generations but surely no less fun. Would love to join and meet you all in SMD.

Btw, any HK rennlisters' 911s here are in that vintage?

Yet to resolve where to maintain my car. Does RAT serve early small bumper 911 too? I suppose yes as they are easier to maintain than later models?

Welcome LouisL

RAT most definitely do service early 911s. Seen that a few times when I had mine there for service.

also see a couple of 356s there as well.

Really nice to get a response from a Hk rennlister. Can't get access to RAT Motorsport website though. Could you kindly pm me RAT contact number please?
