Guys, an unfortunate event this morning, I was beat on a straight by a lamborghini... I'd be more accepting but can't tolerate this. I feel my 997 is just not up to the challenge and am thinking of trading it in for the turbo. Please advise on your thoughts.

I was in Phoenix/Scottsdale last week and saw two 997 4S models puttering around town. Why on earth would someone (at least two people) in Phoenix buy a 4S?

Hi guys, Well, I got my Bentley 911 service manual and the "101 Projects for the 911" is on the way from Amazon. I have successfully changed the light bulb in the luggage compartment, and installed new lifts (struts) for the engine lid and the luggage compartment lid (from Pelican Parts) - the only Porsche in town that does not use sticks. I'm now ready to move on to bigger and better things. But before I can get under the car, I need to jack it up and therein lies the question - what kind of floor lift and jack stands to use. I've read that there are only four lift points (two on each side). Will any lift and jack work, or do you need a special one that will mate better to the lift points? The Bentley manual says to use wood between the lift and the car. Will all jacks fit under the Porsche, or are some lower that others? Pretty basic stuff, I know, but just thought with all the experience out there, someone would know if one system or brand works better than others or have any tips you want to pass along. Thought I would take off the rear wheel and test the oil level sensor which does not work and maybe change the brake pads. Rebuilt a 1930 Model A Ford in high school, but that was 45 years ago and haven't been under a car since. Thanks, Earl |

| I am looking for any feedback on after market muffler systems, like Speedtech or others. I have visited two different websites for two different manufacturers which include video/audio bytes of the products as installed and driven. Any dos or don'ts or advice? | |
