We have a small local shop here in Farmville, Va that has been doing our family cars for years. Great guys, but new to working on Porsches. The first one they ever worked on was my Boxster a couple of months ago. They installed new front rotors as well as pads on all four wheels. I brought the pads and rotors to the shop. The total cost for the installation, 50.00. These are the guys that I would like to tackle the clutch job.

I am still waiting for some horror stories (real experiences please) to scare me off about getting a lightweight flywheel when the clutch goes in. Its a great Friday here in Central Virginia, and the weather looks like it will be good again tomorrow. I think Cyndy and I are going to drive to Richmond for the monthly First Settlers regional PCA "Porsches and Pancakes" meeting at the Bakers Curst at Short Pump. I have never been to one, but they have them the first Saturday of every month, should be fun,

Ed
