Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?

Replaced my k&n intake with a unit from a 3.8 997. Debating if I want to get one of those silicone hose intake pipes.

Re: Optimizing Danmar M6 2 Post Lift

Got back home from a work trip to DC yesterday. Finally have time to work on this project again. Here are the first completed machined pieces. The initial trial was very good. I got the vehicle in the air in a fraction of the time. Pins located the lifting puck on the first try on every corner. No a...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

Been a good week for me. Got my durametric pro at a 20% discount for ordering two (Found someone on rennlist who paypaled me his half), ordered a 997 airbox for a great price, and made the last payment on my snap on tool box. :mrgreen: Is it Christmas in your house or what? Enjoy those goodies man....

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?

Had to oil the bearing on the air injection pump. It's been about 1.5 years since I touched it. Only took about 5 minutes this time. :) What type of oil do you use... :lol: The last time I did it, I lived in an apartment so I did it in my friend's garage. Used some mobil1 spindle oil that he kept f...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

Lived in Hawaii for 18 years. We don't have emmissions testing, but we have something worse called safety inspections. Basically any modification to your vehicle required a reconstruction inspection.

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?

Replaced my 2.5 year old wiper blades with the new Bosch Icon X's. I went with 22A and 21B; perfect fit. They look cheap though...I prefer the Denso Low Profile wiper blades I just put on my GF's lexus. Same here, they work. They work, but the previous set fit better. The passenger side needs to be...
