Default Finally finished the summer scrub and putting all the new OEM exhaust back together


Some fresh 93 gas after a 3 year sitting

New OEM exhaust manifolds/CATs etc. and refinished underbody panels and new ones - my OCD took over this summer

That looks great. I am betting you invested a ton of time getting those results. IMHO, it was time well spent.

Wow. That looks amazing! Can we see some more shots of the car and get some more details on it?

Sure it’s a white 993tt with 47k miles I picked up out of storage the last 3+ years or so - been a straightforward cleanup task given it was stored properly so not too bad.


Used Lexol products on the leather to keep it nice and hydrated

Love the original sport seats in the car and carbon package

Changed all the fluids on the drivetrain - I stick to OEM

Installed new OEM CATs and tips but refinished the cartagraphic mufflers with a drill polish regimen

Also did new OEM manifolds (removed the previous owner Fabspeed manifolds) and cleaned up the underside while also installing new hardware like the H&R sway bar and new monoball sway links

Good question - I asked the owners son who basically said he had a lot of cars and just never drove this one. Bad for him and good for me ;-)

Well then, congrats! I wish I had problems like that. Looks like it landed in the right hands and you have the opportunity for many miles of fun. Enjoy it in good health!
