Be careful. I always wanted a Porsche. One day I decided I'd buy just one. I liked it. A few months later, another opportunity came up and I got another one. A few months later....umm...well the...

Thanks for all the suggestions. When faced with the prospect of dropping possibly $500 on a new key for a car worth only $5K, I was more inclined to part it. A significant portion of the value of...

97 986 with 118K miles. Part out or get a new key?

Yea, this is a bit of a strange question I'm asking...and in doing some online searching, seems to be rather unique. I'm either considering parting the car or I'm considering getting a key. Let me...

You're not kidding about the price difference. Almost $50 a tire cheaper. If I could find a lightweight 17" wheel in 7.5 and 9 widths with the correct offsets, I'd certainly do it. Not tons of...

As mentioned before, the RE-71R and the Rival 1.5 are the two I'm aware of. I ran RE-71Rs last year on my 997. Those tires are nutty sticky. I swear they took a set of R-comp tires and put a wear...

Yoinks! If what I've read is correct, stock seats are 60 lbs, and GT3 seats are 28. Possibly losing 60 pounds of weight. Wish they were cheaper. Still something to consider.

Well, on the bright side, maybe I've already got the lightest seats I can use and won't cost an additional dime. How often does that happen? :D

Looking for light weight stock 986 seats

I'm building up a 2001 S for stock autocross racing. I'm thinking of swapping out the seats that are in there for something lighter. The ones I have are electrical adjust tilt with a mechanical...

Sold! Errr....bought! Thanks for all the tips everyone. I managed to find one 2 hours away. Thankfully -- I was starting to think a one way drive of 34 hours wouldn't be so bad.

Thanks for the chart! I had made one of those myself but couldn't find any different torque curves between the 00-02 and 03-04 cars. About the only useful piece of info I've found to add to that...

I think it *might* be competitive in C-street, so I'm going to first try stock. If it doesn't work out, my thought was to move into something like STU.

At the very least, I'd say several...

WTB stock 2000-2004 Boxster S (or Spyder) for Autocross car

Looking to run a Boxster S in C-street this year. Since it'll be an autocross car, it probably shouldn't be a well kept example. While AX isn't as hard on a car as other forms of racing, repeatedly...

Yea, putting the M030 is one of the first things I plan to do. Thanks for the link to the shocks.

Thoughts on 03/04 Boxster S vs 00-02 Boxster S for autocross

I'm hoping you guys can provide some useful insight into my next autocross car. For the last 4 years, I've been racing my 997 for autocross. It wasn't all that competitive in the class it was in...
