Repairs are usually guaranteed for one year. Look on the receipt. Sounds like you might be just a hair over one year? That would suck. But if the repair was done by a Porsche dealership, I would...

That Miata looks great. S100 is good stuff. The guys over on Autopia are suggesting Souveran over NXT for a "dark" shine. I'm gonna have to give it a whirl.

As for drying, I use a friggen...

The videography (at the beginning) looked great. The donuts didn't look so great. You need more room so you can spin a decent sized donut (and at least 360 degrees) without worrying about hopping a...

Yeah, unless you own a garage queen scratches will be unavoidable. That's what the Porter Cable is for! Since you use Zaino, your car should be ultra slick. Just spray the bugs with some quick...

It is a common misconception that working on the Boxster engine is difficult. All you have to do is remove a few panels to get to the top, front and bottom of the engine. An added bonus is that you...

The US side markers do not blink like the ROW cars. Only the blinkers in the lightpod blink. There is a hack to make the side markers blink. Do a google search for it (it's probably on...

Bruce,
I will bet dollars to donuts that your friends car has swirls if you use my "acid test". My car looked immaculate outdoors but the flash from the camera reveals all. :(

Looks pretty close to a B&M unit other than the bent shifter lever (which really is a non-issue). Website doesn't mention what materials the shifter is made from nor how much reduction in throw. ...

Here's a little pictorial on my now 1 year old daily driver. As with all black cars, swirls will happen no matter how careful you are. The ultimate acid test is under flourescent lighting, direct...

Don't go with the Sports if you are not running aftermarket/lowering springs. The SP struts are a little shorter and are made for lowered cars. HD's should be fine for stock height. They should feel...

I had a chuckle when I read Porschekid's post. I don't think he meant any harm.

What I will say is it is common netiquette to not use caps unless you're trying to "shout". Using all caps also...

If your front control arms are bent, chances are that the front struts are on their way out too (from curb hopping or otherwise).

I would suggest you replace all 4 struts. Even if the front...

Hmmm. No such luck for me putting the bag in with the woods. 983K with a 45" shaft. :confused: Not to mention tipping in the bag like that makes my irons go flying out.

But that's ok. ...

There is no way 20hp is possible with just a chip. I'm not sure there's anything to gain with stock intake/exhaust and chip mod.

I wish someone would get the air/fuel ratio measured for a stock...

Clubs fit fine in the Boxster. Just take your woods out and lay them across the back portion of the trunk. The bag (if it's a carry/stand bag) will fit with the irons still in the bag. Still plenty...

$20K off would be an insane deal. I don't think you'll find that deal. I think Carlsen has a lot of '04s left. Not sure about Stevens Creeak. Claridges doesn't look like they have too many.
