Impressive speed! Did mundane stuff as in putting all loose tools in the front trunk where they are supposed to be (attached to the spare tire) in an effort to minimize rattles. Is my 2001 Box loosening up or is it just poor housekeeping? Test drive needed!:)

Friday drove from Burbank up to Paso Robles - took I-5 up over the Grapevine, then took local road 166 - 33 - 58 (with a small excursion on 229).

After Paso drove over to Cambria then down PCH to SLO then back to Burbank on 101.

Saturday was wash and wax day.

That's pretty much what mine looks like. Same wheels too. Just that I changed the headlights and tails and side indicators to led ones. Man gotta get the chance to clean the car for pics. Weathers been bad recently.

Got it washed, put the top down and finally took some pics of it to post on this forum :D

Then went on a relaxed drive...

I did the same thing. Except I didn't bother with the parking brake shoes. Anybody know how to bleed the PSM pump?

Freshened up the rear.

I finished it off tonight after work ...
When I changed the handbrake shoes over weekend I accidentally broke one of the retaining springs :rolleyes:
A quick hour tonight and all is well :D

Ha! That's why I didn't touch mine. :)

There was noise when we got the car and all the brakes needed doing and the handbrake shoes where only $17 extra .

After a 10mph driveby in the street last night , It seems to have cured the noise , but we will find out tonight ... Pch and a picnic :D

I forgot to mention that I had also been hearing a clunk around the passenger visor area ,so the 2 torques got tightened .

I'm trying to get rid of all the small noises etc before the lowering and exhaust goes on :)

Flew from Oslo to Stavanger (Norway), bought a 00 Boxster and drove it home from Stavanger to Oslo (550 km) :D:D:D:D

That looks awesome with the clear headlights and side markers :D

Congratulations on the new car !!

Oslo ... Where a couple of beers and a pack of cigarettes costs more than a boxster !!
:D

Bravo! I did something similar last year, but the drive was 3500 km and took three days. Fun way to begin ownership!

took her for a spin upstate with her uncle "SC"
(she is for sale, btw)

The Socal rain made us cancel the pch cruise and picnic so the only thing g I did to the car yesterday was hitched a ride to the grocery store when I ran out of corona :D

Now the brake noise as gone It is a lot quieter and i can hear the other wheel bearing grumbling .
Luckily I already have its replacement in the trunk .

Today's job will be I stalling the side stripes ....

Wow.. thats... a long (but fun!) drive

YUP :)

My 2000 Box cost me $32200..

I used to work for a company from Bergen . Most of there work was in stavanger but I was farther north ... On the orman Lange island off molde
Spent many an expensive hour in Oslo :D

Ormen Lange.. nice :cool:

The guy I bought my Box from was also in offshore.

Anyways.. back on topic :)

I like these chrome wheels.....:)

I turned mine on, warmed her up, revved her a little, then shut her down.
