The Boxster has different tire widths front and rear. The rear are much wider. If yours are not, that's a good starting point.

I'd suggest that at 60K miles the IMS isn't going anywhere. Drive it hard to get the oil flowing. You should be fine. Monitor your frequent oil changes closely.

Thanks for the help.

Good idea about a speed shop testing the springs.

I've got the bearings and mounts on the list. Braided brake lines also. That'll be nice.

I had hoped to get some personal opinions. I think the boards are slow this time of year. Pelican states the 10% off for PCA members ends at the end of the year. Maybe they'll extend that. Hoping to...

I just read a post here or on Rennlist that said the company that does immobilizer work sells a box that seals watertight. Hope that helps. I need to look into that too. Worst design feature.

I think the 986 has more appeal than a 924 or 944. They strayed from their timeless formula with those yet the boxster has the gentle curves of a pronounced front wheel well, the rear hips in back. ...

Suspension replacement question

I've bought front and rear suspension kits from Pelican for my 00 S, and I think I want to replace the shocks at the same time.

The car has 103K miles and they are likely original.

I'll be...

Most tire shops will have a set of lug removing tools. My key broke the first time I tried to use it. Went to Porsche dealership and got some new lugs to replace them. Haven't looked back.

How to tell when car is level

My parking area isn't level. Is there a plane on my 2000 Boxster S I can put a level on? Like the window sill?

I live in the mountains and nothing is level here.

I couldn't fill my 2000 S at the pump, or I looked like a simp just cranking it for two minutes. I figured a hack, I could fill it with a gas can, so when I needed gas...
