New Member 2000 boxster s

Hi all NY based first time Porsche owner long time car enthusiast having previously done 2 pretty involved builds on Subaru wrx's. After getting more into track days I decided I wanted a boxster to build into a wheel to wheel race car. So after some searching I purchased a 986 s in not so pretty but good running and driving shape. Has some light track use modifications such as one way adjustable Koni shocks and H&R lowering springs, L&N deep sump kit, sway bars and 2 sets of 18x8/18x10 wheels. Exterior of the car has a poor respray but i didn't buy it because its pretty i chose this boxster because it was the cheapest S I could grab. Since picking it up i have done some maintenance and replaced some failing components, very much enjoying the car got 2 days in before the season ended. Looking forward to getting to know some of you guys share my build progress and searching before asking for the solution to my problem that someone else almost certainly had years before me!

Check with PowerTech in Rockaway, NJ for spares and pre-tech for the track.
