Put this together over the last week......

Have put in an order for the 911R version with my daughters for Father's Day

 

I'm guessing the car was the first thing to get finished?

Contrary to some of what I read online, I find the carbon buckets very comfy.  But this little trick takes comfort to the next level thanks to added lumbar support.  A little trick I discovered on Rennlist and found a local supplier with Velcro already included, $50 and 30 second install

Don’t stick the hose in the wrong spot

Change is as good as a holiday???  Probably not, but I'd bent a rim so it was time to change rims while I got the damaged one fixed.  Ultimately the wheels I have put on will have gold centres to match the Seal Grey......

The GT3 rims will be put away for 'ron.

A couple of spirited runs up & down Mt Macedon on my way to drop the car off to Cascone Autosport. Nick is taking care of a few things on the car for me, unfortunately that doesn’t include fitting this MFI engine.

In January 2022 I bought my 911 without getting a PPI done because the car & the owner checked out (that's 4 P cars with 0 PPI's, 1 was from WA & 1 was from Townsville and all have been great cars).

After almost 2 years of ownership, I had a Porsche Specialist check out the car for the first time as I have been enjoying working on it myself but had a list of things, I wanted a specialist to sort out. I engaged Cascone Auto Sport to look over the car & Nick found a couple more things that needed attention but reported that the car was in very good condition and that it had been looked after. I picked up the car today & I now have a 2.7 that doesn't drip any oil and purrs like a kitten and my 49-year-old 911 is now completely free from squeaks & rattles so any evil thoughts of selling it are now gone.

Once I got out of Melbourne's peak hour traffic & onto the Calder Fwy, I was able to stretch its legs & couldn't avoid turning off at Harcourt to enjoy one of my favourite local driving roads. ☺️

Mine (82SC) has been a lot more squeaky lately and planning a full suspension refresh.....is that what you did with yours?

No the suspension had been refreshed, it needed new engine & gearbox mounts and the oil cooler mounting needed repaired.

So is that a bit narrower?

im sure it is but after a bottle of red I ask dumber questions 🎅 

ok what was the previous spacer?😊
Oh how did you find dealing with Cascone?

It didn’t have spacers before so has always rubbed over big bumps and Nick suggested fitting the spacers and had some off a GT3.

He was great to deal with, excellent communication, did a quality job and the pricing was very fair. I won’t be going anywhere else.

Gave mine a really good run today with 400km of driving to catch up with a mate before he sells his Kombi & I managed to find all the tight and twisty roads along the way 😎
