Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
I thought Nick_L's thing was the scavenge pump gears wear out or something like that. That and IMS bearings. He comes on RL and immediately acts like a top-bearing expert because he "worked at SKF". Then tries to debate with Jake on all things lubrication. But yes, he then tries to solve ...

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?
What would be a clever answer to this very curious young enthusiast?
Yes! Would you like to sit in it? Maybe a start for a new Porschephile.

Re: Insurance for the 996
I've seen commercials for it, but have never tried it. Our home/cars are all bundled at State Farm and I don't think I could find any cheaper insurance. www.zebra.com

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
"The wholesale price of electricity in Houston went from $22/megawatt-hour to about $9,000." I saw that in an article today. It doesn't really affect the end user. It has a big effect on the power generating company. They make big bucks when the grid is at max capacity It can also go nega...

Re: Another Poll- Coupe Or Cabriolet ?
The main problem is that as our cars age, things go whacky and stop working. The cab top is very complex with hydraulics and microswitches that tend to wear out with age. So for your poll, I would take a coupe over a cab any day. In terms of longevity... I have read many horror stories about working...

Re: Winterizing the 996
I thought you were supposed to inflate the tires to the maximum limit to lessen the contact patch. If you lower the pressure you will be increasing the contact patch and there will be a huge flat spot.
Anyway, sorry for the bad weather and having to put the car to sleep. What a pain!

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
As I get older, I really get tired of the snow and cold. If I ever move out of my beloved NJ, Cali is probably where I would head next. I have to go out there once or twice a year for work, and I don't see the downside. A distinct lack of Pork Roll maybe. I love the weather here, and compared to ot...
