Had a 997 GT3, incredible car.

After that had a 2010 (DFI, PDK) Cayman S, nice car.

Yesterday a good friend handed me the key to a 997.2 GT3 RS - I am still in shock. Just perfection.

Right, discounttiredirect.com seems to be the best place to get rubber lately - R888 or NT01s. Not sure why TireRack ignores our market at this level.

IMO the NT01s are above the 888s (which I...

GREAT video, thanks for posting it!

Great post, pretty much my approach - my 09 CS has the carbon seats (love them!), steel brakes and no PASM as the Cross coilovers will be installed in a couple of weeks, 18" because that is what...

I could be a good samaritan and allow you to send them to me.

Kidding aside join RL and list them on the classified section, unless you are asking for an unreasonable price they should go quick.

Noticed that you don't have PASM - I have a DFI PDK CS as well with no PASM and looking for suspension alternatives, somewhere between a PSS9 and a Moton system.

Are you looking into this as well?

Bob, because I respect your opinion I took the time to find my manual and try to re-read the relevant portions before replying. Possibly I missed them.

Somewhat related - it was a tough decision but I decided on PDK just because I thought it'd be better on the track. Have only had it on the track a couple of times for partial sessions so not an...

Ugh. Got a chance to drive it on the track last night and PDK left to its own is just not right in my book.
