And that turned into...

Radio surround
All scuffed up like most of the other black soft touch interior trim. Gave it shot with Rustoleum Flexidip and I am impressed. VERY close to the original factory look and feel. Forgot to get a before shot but now I am working on the center console.

I was actually thinking of ordering one of those Tranzit Blu HF units. I have a parrot phone kit but because of the MOST system in my 2004 S, the parrot needs an external speaker. And that's rubbish compared to the multiple speakers in the car. Let me know how you find it.

hands free microphone Transit Blu
The Bose auto pilot doesn't make much difference in sound volume so I sacrificed that mic location for my bluetooth install. Totally stock look.

Stop whatever you are doing and buy this little gadget. It's slick as hell. I personally think it sounds great. The volume does drop a little but who cares. Crank it up. Sounded crystal clear to me. The microphone picked up my voice perfectly from the stock location. Totally a stealth install. Worth every penny.

Transit Blu Install
This is a great little add for the factory radio. Totally stealth. Works like a charm. I'm tickled pink over this $100 upgrade. Don't forget to order the antenna adaptor.
Factory microphone location works perfect. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1491322125.jpg Hidden from sight. Easily accessible. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1491322227.jpg http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1491322397.jpg |

Geez, why did you have to go and post that picture?! I have been trying to resist sending mine off to get the same treatment. That sure looks great :cheers:

Patrick Dempsey
Really nice dude. Showed up to the local Porsche meet in his 911 R. Had him autograph my trunk lid.

Nice! I knew I should have driven up to Portland today! By all accounts, Dempsey is a good guy and his fundraises give a lot back to the Maine community. Nice car, too. Even Dempsey's [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Club Motorsports Track Day

Is that Palmer? I was there last year. In case you're interested, Brey Krause told me this was the tape to use to protect your roll bar paint from the extension clamps -

Club Motorsports. New track that literally just opened. $100,000 a year memberships. Will eventually have condos with garages that go right out to the track. SCDA ran there last week.

A 911 part finished in graphite gray from the factory. Just to change up the look a little. |
Ben’s ball bearing short shift kit
Just ordered one up from Ben. Everyone has good things to say about it and the price is right. Might as well take the plunge while my center console is all apart.

The parts just keep rolling in. Come on Springtime!

Quick question, why do you store the car for the winter? It's perfectly capable in cold climates - I daily mine, and have just driven home through the snow (massively fun).

Not a huge difference but I think you can hear a little more intake noise.

I'm sure the car is capable. Drove a Miata for several years year round so not afraid to but I like to take care of my car and I have a truck to drive. New England winters are especially harsh on cars. Lot's of sand salt and chemicals used to treat the roads. Why sandblast my car and have nasty looking corrosion on all the metal bits if I don't need to? My car was from the south so the undercarriage looks brand new. Want to keep in that way.

Hi grc, do you have an Indy that you have used and recommend in the area? I am in Northern MA up near the NH border and would be interested in your experience.
I agree with Tomikaze on the New Eng winters 100%. I am itching to get my car out and the cover off, but these 15oF (-10oC) mornings we are still getting makes me less inclined to do so. The snowbanks, bits of tree lying around after the storms, massive potholes and road salt are currently winning the head vs heart battle! Paul. |
Good points :)

Paul, I have used Autobahn Performance in Danvers, MA and am currently servicing with Automotive Engineering of Lexington, MA. If you are a PCA member (and I think its a good idea), you can ask some of your local fellow members. I suspect you would be in North Country Region. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Thanks for the tips.
Paul. |
Paul,
I misread. If you are in MA (east of Worcester or so), you would be in the Northeast Region (NER) of PCA. National PCA will assign you to the correct region. Check out our site here: https://porschenet.com/ Spring is here (well, almost)! Gary |
Its easy to change regions. Just phone PCA National and they will take care of it on the spot. You will get a welcome email from me as soon as I get the notice!
