    Perhaps - what is more important is the wheel offset. The fronts should be fine as both Boxster and 996 use 50 mm offset on 17 inch front wheels. The rear wheels for Boxster are 50 mm standard with an option of 55 mm. With the 55 mm offset wheel you are not allowed to install chains as they will damage the fender. So just be careful of offset for your uses.

    No factory engine numbers started with 63F so it can be hard to determine what modifications have been done. A 2.7 liter would have been factory installed - but those engines were easy to upgrade to 3.0 or even 4.0 liters (with head stud replacements and different cylinders). Further investigation would be need to determine what is in the car now.

    That is not a radio that is a PCM. Can you give me a code for my PCM? These units are manufactured jointly by Siemens and Becker, and the only place where you can get the codes required is from the dealer/OPC. The PCM’s require two codes, the ICS/Siemens code, and a Becker code. The ICS is the first code requested. Sorry, the only place you can get a PCM code is from a dealer/OPC

    Lost Radio Codes DO NOT START A NEW TOPIC FOR A LOST RADIO CODE. DO NOT EMAIL ADMINS. Please read the Lost Radio Code FAQ FIRST before posting - then post in the one thread. This topic is closed.

    A P0008 trouble code indicates an Engine Position System Performance issue in Bank 1. This means the engine control module (ECM) has detected a problem with the alignment or synchronization of the crankshaft and camshaft(s) in the first bank of cylinders. This can be caused by: A sticky or dirty VVT solenoid - I would change the oil and see if it gets better. Or depending on the mileage the VVT solenoid might need to be replaced.

    Are you sure your serial number is correct? The suggested number did not work - what do I do now? Most often when the code we give you does not work it is because the serial number came from an old card in the car rather than from the procedure stated above - or a typo in the serial number submitted. Double check the serial number you submitted using the procedure above again. If that does not work then you will need to contact a dealer or Becker. Becker charges to look up your code and some dealers also charge. Our program works maybe 99.9% of the time but we have no explanation why it doesn't always work.

    In 1973 there was both a 62 liter fuel tank and an optional 85 liter tank. You might either check the volume or part number if possible.

    I don't think so. Durametric (nor Porsche (PST2, PIWIS 2, or PIWIS 3) diagnostics are designed for racing. 996 GT3 RS have a special race tool but I am not aware of race tool for street 996.

    I would stick with the OEM part as Porsche upgraded the clutch spring assembly several times.
