Alan's just delivered a mates 993 to sydney from Melb this arvo and it heads to Autohaus on Friday for a Indy up. Alans were great and always find the team at Autohaus fantastic. Grant and Anthony were great taking calls around questions, giving advice. Enjoy the C4S, have seen it in the flesh a few times and love those big hips 😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw it a 8am, very nice condition. Drive’s well, looks sensational in Atlas Grey, wasn’t sure on the color until seeing it. It’s still there and will have a major service and thorough check over to attend immediately to all the little stuff you find when you start looking. Like many here I’m a bit OCD... Pics once it’s Victorian registered and complete, maybe a week or so. Stay tuned.

KGB Posted 30June, 2020 Author Report Share Posted 30June, 2020 Update. Service and usual list of tidying up completed, simple detail done, zorst tips aligned. Pirelli’s fitted (Michie rears n/a for 3 months!). Discovered PSE fitted after delivery at some point, nice bonus, sounds great. Fitted a 997 shift mech, which has shortened the throw and made it more direct, but not SSK short and notchy. Sweet car, drives beautifully as Grant at Autohaus commented during PPI. Mates are now looking for 996’s....🤣 Troubleshooter, flamingporsche, P-Kay and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a great improvement, I didn't realise they were interchangeable. Did you use the 997 Factory 'short shift version'?

Did you use the 997 Factory 'short shift version'? Completely interchangeable, bolt in and go. I used the regular 997 mech, they say 15% shorter throw, about right. Bit notchy first thing but otherwise nice improvement. Read that the 997 SSK makes it a bit resistant in it’s action. JWM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shall keep that one in the knowledge bank. I have the Factory short shift as a Build option on my 997S. I rate it highly. I could understand some may comment that the shift action seems resistant, and maybe even a little notchy - but if anything that is really only from cold. Once it warms up, it is slick. In fact, by the time it's warm, those shifts are slotting into place so smooth it makes me want to head straight for the hills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
