Drove to work in anticipation of sunny warm afternoon drive home. I was rewarded with 70 degree sunny afternoon and first topless drive of the year taking the long curvy route home!

I also received my new speakers today so almost everything on hand to execute stero upgrade.

Did the same with my 986. I live in the Orlando area. Perfect weather.

The ounce of prevention

Got my 2004 Boxster S Anniversary Edition out of winter storage week before last and got it over to my local indie for last week while I was out of town.

They did the LN Engineering single row pro IMS bearing retrofit, and the RMS. The buggy is at 96k, bearing was the OEM Porsche bearing and looked ok but had noticeable movement in the bearing shaft.

Also replaced the heater core which had been corroded and leaking coolant (for some time, they say), fogging the inside of the windows. originally CA car, now in the midwest, 14 year old heater core wasn't up to it I guess.

Anyway, love these guys: BT Racing in Evanston, IL. Very communicative, sent photos throughout the process, put in the air filter and clear side blinkers that I brought them as well.

Very excited now for better weather, a thorough cleaning and top protection and the summers' car events!

Where have you been all my life Part 2.

First coolant flush and fill with a Uview 550000 Airlift. That was almost too easy. Well worth the money IMHO. And the time savings is significant also. Times 2 cars, a no brainer for me.
