Re: My 2002 996 "renovation" thread

One consideration: graphite is electrically conductive. Most likely a non-issue, but I prefer to use dry silicon spray when electronics/electrical is involved. Don't lube external latches with WD, ,etc. Use graphite powder. Doesn't attract grime and dirt like liquid lubricants would. 9/10 times, it...

Re: Flying Ducktail...

just yesterday I was in a funk, bemoaning the lack of choices for a decent ducktail for our plebeian 996's no reviews yet, seems reasonable you going to take the plunge b3 ?, bet it adds 35 hp the OEM Carrera spoiler for the 996 is $6,500 unpainted and the OEM GT3 type setup are pushing $4,000. htt...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

thought it was just me.... Nope. But being Schnelly and the rest of the context it was thankfully easy to figure out without Googling. All together now boys and girls: Never Google shit Schnelly says! That goes without saying. Hence the confusion... I refuse to google anything Schnelly post. Don’t ...

Re: 2018 Hershey, PA Porsche Swap Meet April 21

I'd be down to take the cruise Coming from Northern NJ and really, KC? I expected more for a learned doctor such as yourself....oh wait, nvm. I'm in Livingston. ANNNNNND, I'm out. It's the Boy's first communion that day. Dammit. Usually a good time, and it would have been my first with a 911. Last ...

Re: Racetrack Stuff

Thanks for the honest review. I guess to be expected, then. Doesn't change my mind about the design: Jaw-dropping. You're lucky to get to ride along, let alone instruct in it! For some reason I thought I saw a review where people were saying it's an honest contender with the GT3 (non-RS). Maybe tha...

Re: 2018 Hershey, PA Porsche Swap Meet April 21

I'm in if I can get a pass from the boss. I'm about 3 hours away, which is perfect for a 996 road trip. I'd be looking for some odds and ends, nothing necessary. Maybe a console I could paint my exterior color. I'd be down to take the cruise Coming from Northern NJ and really, KC? I expected more f...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

I couldn't agree more. Drove one once and hated it. It felt so disconnected and rubbery. The tires were so low profile I thought they were flat! Give me the analog Porsche lift off anytime over that piece of junk. They've had reliability issues, as well. They took styling cues from the CLS and atte...
