tazzieman Posted 20August, 2014 Report Share Posted 20August, 2014 No big deal. I know the feeling of lack of sleep, as a matter of fact l could use a bit of shut eye right now. Slapped on the back by a deadpan surgical registrar in 1986 : "Sleep is a privilege, not a right" . So you have my utmost sympathy , really.

Panzerjager Posted 22August, 2014 Report Share Posted 22August, 2014 I know someone who is good for a long term loan of a set of jack stands if required by the "Kollektiv Consortium" after purchase and storage at Terry R's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter M Posted 23August, 2014 Report Share Posted 23August, 2014 Mmmmm, interesting!An Australian delivered '97 993S with 88,000km that has had a Tip to manual conversion for $107khttp://www.carsales.com.au/dealer/details/Porsche-911-Carrera-1997/AGC-AD-16477842/?Cr=3&sdmvc=1At Autohaus so it will probably sell next week.....http://autohaushamilton.com.au/porsche-sales/porsches-for-sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike D'Silva Posted 23August, 2014 Report Share Posted 23August, 2014 I'd be keen to find out who could do a tip to manual conversion. Whilst I am enjoying the car now... if it were a manual, it would be a lifelong love affair for sure. Every thread I have read about so far.. is very old and that all say "don't do it!"

Whilst I am enjoying the car now... if it were a manual, it would be a lifelong love affair for sure. Every thread I have read about so far.. is very old and that all say "don't do it!" i'd be interested to see what the tricky part about the conversion would be- it doesn't look like a complex conversion but curious if anyone has tried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
