I enjoy the wedge-look of my 944 when the headlights are down. I don't mind the look when they're up, but they just look better down.
The novelty was cool right after purchasing the car, but now I'm more worried about something breaking with them and having to pay a big repair bill for something pretty simple.
Replaced with: Duracell Ultra Platinum AGM Battery SLI49AGM
replacing the rad with a new oem unit made my Temps run very normal. Almost boringly normal.
They're great pads, and when you've fried them you'll get a new set under FCP Euro's lifetime warranty.
Changed the fuel filter today. Had it sitting around for a while but haven't gotten around to it. Surprised by how much of an effect it had on the car. The car pulls noticeably better and smoother from the low end now.
Next up was replacing the spark plugs and the distributor finger and distributor cap. Car ran noticeably better and smoother.
Just had a set of 225/40R18 Pilot Sport 4s tires mounted on my summer wheels -- saved $150. :beer: Great service at my local Tire Center. Guys were nice and knew their stuff. They also used a $16,000 Coats APX90E tire changer, which was a nice bonus and didn't leave a scratch anywhere.
So unfortunately my Macan needed new tires...Excellent service, not a single scratch or mark on the wheels, perfectly balanced, on time and as promised, bill had all information including warranty, even to what spec they torqued the wheels bolts, yes, to Porsche specification which is 110 ftlb, tire pressure sport on. I was also very impressed about the friendliness of the staff, they all were knowledgeable, no pressure. Needless to say I may try them again going forward.
I went for a 996.2 for the Turbo style headlights... but those fried eggs kinda look good on the GT3!
Similar story: a lovely pothole seemingly gave me a flat (felt really jarring) on one of my Pirelli Sottozero 3s. Was flat within 10 minutes...Turns out the pothole actually cracked the rim (which caused the flat) and then the short time I drove on it mostly flat, had ruined the sidewall on the tire as well.
