    When you buy a bumper, you need to then paint it. I bet the side skirts are the same way. Paul

    Maybe you should clean your battery connections. Paul

    I think it is the cam chain guide. I have seen a picture of a broken one but I can't find it. I would call Flat 6 and see what they think. They sell a replacement cam chain guide that is made stronger. http://www.flat6innovations.com/ Paul

    I found the control unit. It is number 23 in the picture. It is part #996-618-171-03. I have no idea where this goes in the car. If you got this installed and ran the wires to the sensors, you still would need to take your car to the dealer so the computer could be set to read the control unit. Paul

    Sounds like you have done everything right. My only guess would be to install new street pads. You could also get in a big lot and run the car in reverse up to 25 mph and then slam on the brakes. Good luck. Paul

    Different cars have different wiring harnesses for the different options. You may want to check your harness. Paul

    I would buy some "Wet Water" from any car parts store. Paul

    The hole door latch assembly was like $75 from Sunset Imports. Paul

    How many miles do you have on this car. Sounds like the cam chain tensioner is not working. Paul

    Stiff Medium And better than stock. Paul

    You can send a request to the librarian for the font. Some of the letters that are not in the word porsche are real weird. The name is just glued on so it is real easy to peal off. They will break when you peal it off. To install a new one, you just pull off the backing tab and stick the new one to the car. Paul

    Maybe you just want to replace the switch (part #10). I would call Sunset Imports for a price. Here is a picture. Paul

    Here are the instructions for removing the door interior. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?/tutorials/article/7-door-micro-switch/ This should help you to see if the electrical connection to the window switches has not fallen off. Paul

    Tap on the cans with a very small hammer. Normally when the car gets hot the noise stops. Good luck with your search. Paul
  15. PAULSPEED
    Thanks for showing that. I would never had guess it. I post links to other sites if I can not find something on renntech. Thanks again, Paul

    No chip flashing for me. I am happy with the factory red-line. I have seen Caymens as fast as my Carrera S and I am just waiting for them to explode. You know there pushing when a 3.2 is as fast as a 3.8. Paul

    Here are the instructions. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=7065 It says 65 ft-lbs for caliper torque. Paul
  18. PAULSPEED
    I do not know why you have to remove the calipers. I would just pull the pin (#15), spread the calipers, and pull the pads. I am including a picture with this reply. Paul

    No performance with new tips. The stock tips are brushed chrome plated. You can buy polished chrome plated tips. They are easier to clean but it is one of the more dirty places on the car. It just depends on what you want. Paul

    I bought them from a company that is no longer around. He bought them here. http://www.tarett.com/items/996-997-products/list.htm You are right. I use two jacks. One jack to lift the car. The other jack to lift the suspension. The $175.00 price is about the lowest you will find. Paul
  21. PAULSPEED
    You do not need to remove the calipers or the rotors to replace the brakes. The rotor screws just need to be firm. The rotors are not supported by the screws. The calipers are about 50 to 80 ft-lbs. Send a request in the part section. Paul
  22. PAULSPEED
    Yes you are crazy!!! Take the car to the track. Open the windows and drive as fast as you can. You will be connected to the sound very soon. The acceleration pedal is a no brainer. Either you are full on or full off. Take a Driver's Education event at the track and feel the fun!!! Paul
  23. PAULSPEED
    I have the link at work. I will get it in a few days. Paul
  24. PAULSPEED
    I would say your OK. I have the factory wheel spacers and they do not make much difference. I have to watch out for curbs more. Just drive it!!! Paul
  25. PAULSPEED
    I am right with loren. The picture Loren shows is the oil heat exchanger. I have included a picture of the Air conditioner heat exchanger. Paul
