Owned a few 993's - 1995 C2 & C4 and 1996 C2
One nice thing about the 1995 model is the OB1 emission set up - If you get the dreaded slight air passage blockage in the engine head you can still pass emissions
The later 1996-1998 993's have the OB11 plug in which results in emission failure if there is slight blockage in engine head air passages

Re: 993 Photos
Here's a couple of my 1996 midnight blue 993.
What a 993 should be doing. This was on track at the Indy motor speedway - wishing I had more horsepower.
At a car show - where it seems most 993s tend to live these days.

Nice car! I envy the condition of your paint.
Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

Look at the angle of that trunklid. Looks like you can actually do work on the top of the engine without banging your noggin.trailbrake996 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 09, 2018 10:45 am Here's a couple of my 1996 midnight blue 993.

Plus looks like less junk under the hood on the engine that would make it easier to work on too.OceanBlue2000 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 09, 2020 10:54 amLook at the angle of that trunklid.
