They do make a difference. I removed mine and drove around with them and put them back on. The difference is noticeable.

Hopefully your solution holds up. I got mine replaced yesterday with the latest version of cables, which ends in 8, if anyone is curious.

I'll need to check with the PCA club to determine whether this works or not.

I'm curious if any of you guys here are in PCA Club Racing with a 986 Boxster S?

If yes, I'd like to know the following:

Wow, thanks for sharing! 3 seconds shaved off from a gearing strategy is awesome!

I am curious which tires these are and how old are they?

Update: Looks like the shift cable collar became dislodged from the sheathing and caused the cable to bind. Replacement is the only option. :(

Thanks!

I'm hoping it's just that, but as a preventative measure, I think it's time to replace the cables any way.

No, not yet. When I pulled over, it was on a dirt road (country side) and was not safe to jack the car up. Had to get it towed on a flat bed and dropped off at the shop. I'll find out in a day or two...

Hi fellow 986 Boxster owners,

When I got my Boxster, I changed out the shocks and it made a HUGE difference in terms of "front" lift. It's not so much the mileage but the age of the suspension that makes an impact to the driving...

I have these shocks but not for my 986, but for a Toyota.

For the price, they are not bad, compared to say, a set of Koni FSDs I had for my Boxster and some Koni Yellows I had for my old E36 M3....
