What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

Painted my nuts and cleaned the areas in between.

Thought I'd be smart and put the incredibly expensive (Porsche, of course!) oil in my trans BEFORE installing and found that it no longer pivots nicely on the spear like thing on the underside now. I'm using just a floorjack to raise it into position and removed the jack pad and sat that spear right in the hole! Worked like a charm pulling it out but need a counterbalancing mechanic's wire arrangement going in. Then I noticed that the release bearing pops out of the arm too easily- the inner sides where the bearing clips into are worn by about 0.01" on each side-oh no!!! I ordered a new one and it'll take about a week to get it! (Porsche, of course!) My Toyota's have a spring-steel clip the size of my thumb on either side of the bearing support and are 100 times stronger and weigh just a few ounces more. 0.010" of wear shouldn't matter and can be the differeince between reliable and not- in a Porsche!!! Marvel of engineering that...

Drove my Box out to CA Speedway to the Porsche Roadshow event.

Got to drive the 2014 Cayman S & 991 4S on the infield course up to 100 mph!
Both these cars are so smooth & ride very nice!
