  1. It's covered in TSB 5/03 6658 Aerokit "Cup II" Installation Instructions (dated 5-23-03). Did you get the kit with wiring harness, and other parts or just the wing?
  2. Without the switch the PSE will be always on. No problem as long as you stay under 4000 RPM in quiet zones.
  3. A6 should be CAN high and A14 should be CAN low. A5 is electronics ground.
  4. On GT3 rotors the cooling vanes (inside the rotor) face opposite directions. It is possible on a GT3 rotor to put them on the wrong side - creating little or no air flow through the rotor. If the Brembo's are all the same then it likely does not matter. I would check and see if they are marked L and R or if between two they have different part numbers (front and front and rear and rear).
  5. There is no self-leveling for retrofit Litronics.
  6. 7.5 ft-lbs (10 Nm). If the Brembo J slots are like the stock GT3 rotors then make sure you put them on the side or brake cooling will be non existent.
  7. Have a look here.
  8. Yes, bleeding the clutch on a GT3 is the same. I think the slave cylinder bore is just a little larger on the GT3 - but it functions the same.
  9. After the receipt page you should have been taken to a (simple) page to download. You also should have received a confirmation email and an email with the download link to your PayPal email account (2 emails). That is how it worked for me...
  10. I purchased and downloaded a copy of the 996 manual from www.workshopmanuals.co.uk. I compared them against my factory paper version (which includes all of the current supplements). The downloaded manual appears to be a 1999-2000 vintage and the newest supplement (that I could find) it has is 39 (current supplements in my manual are 95). That means that the manual is only current through early MY2000. The wiring diagrams confirm that also as they only go through 1999. I did not have any problems opening the PDF files but every file I opened did complain of a missing index - which means you can not search across all the files with Acrobat's search function. The quality of the scanned pages is okay at best. Some images are a bit fuzzy and broken up (see below). Oddly enough they also threw into the General section the Service Information Technik Books from MY2002. Since the quality is poor, it does not cover C4S, Targa, or GT3 mk2, and this version does not have the additional supplements I can't recommend it. Even for only $20 much of the information is outdated.
  11. Correct on the Litronics upgrade (even from a dealer) you do not get self leveling. on the (MY02 and newer) Bi-Xenon you do.
  12. :welcome: Have a look at the DIY section... this is a 15 minute job (drain time is 20 minutes). On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the most difficult this is barely a 1. You will also save few hundred dollars. Or better yet come to one of our Bay Area work on cars days and we'll help you!
  13. Excellent! :D
  14. You will need to put a OBD II scan tool on it to see if it is generating fault codes (not all fault codes turn on the CEL). The better tools will actually graph the performance of key components (like the MAF, fuel trim, O2 sensors, etc.).
  15. Here is what the OBD II manual says about P0153: They go on to suggest that you reset the code and if comes back replace the oxygen sensor.
  16. I assure you there is plenty I don't know...
  17. LOL... I have gotten phone calls from the last two owners of my 1976 911S. Both were polite but I have no idea how they tracked me down....
  18. Porsche does not recommend X74 for any pre MY02 car. In MY02 they stiffened some chassis mounting points and X74 can be used on those "stiffened" cars.
  19. Have you looked at the ground connections?
  20. I have all the US MY03 order guides. Which one's do you need?
  21. The part number above is for a PCM1 early version. It was replaced by 996 642 905 04 EFR -- still PCM1.
  22. Have a look at TSB 2/00 9112 TrafficPro CD Radio & Navigation (dated 2-25-2002).
  23. 996 563 551 00 01C Hardtop Lining Trim (item 3)
  24. I think I may still have mine... although the relay has been opened for pictures. Let me know if you are interested and I'll try to find it. (ps. If you validate your email change (by clicking on the link in the email) and it does not return you to the Contributing Members group - please let me know so I can fix it.)
