Porsche also put a differential in the 996 GT3 that constantly breaks down if the car is used on a track (where it was designed to be used). Fortunately, there's a $1000 differential aftermarket unit you can put on a 996 GT3 that's far better than Porsche's factory unit and will be the last one you replace on the car.

If you've never driven two boxsters back to back, one with rubber brake hoses and one with SS brake lines, you'd be surprised at how much stiffer the braking is in the one with aftermarket SS lines in it.

Don't knock it until you've tried it.
