    This place showed a 996 transmission last night on the TV. Here is there link. http://www.ladismantler.com/ Paul
  2. PAULSPEED
    I would also do a search in the 996 section. Paul

    Here is a good diy on a older Porsche. The overall work is still the same on the newer cars. http://p-car.com/diy/sus/ Paul

    I am one of those nuts who added shims in the lower a-arms to increase the camber more. Yes I go thru alot of tires. Paul
  5. PAULSPEED
    Your right again!!! The camber is what help reduce the push I had. Paul
  6. PAULSPEED
    Getting a track alingment will help with the push. Need to add as much castor as you can. The tires will wear out on the inside but the car will not push as much. Paul

    I saw some dimensions once but they were metric. You can lite tape it and then stand back about 10 feet. Paul

    Removing the side plates first should help let you see what else to take off. Paul
  9. PAULSPEED
    They peal off real easy. I would put some painters tape down first to align the letters. Paul
  10. PAULSPEED
    This part? Paul

    Here is the location on the Porsche site. The only date I found was 08/09. http://www.porsche.com/all/media/pdf/Owners_Manual_Turbo_PCNA.pdf Paul

    It is held in with a circle clip. Part 16 in the picture is the clip. You might need a bent sharp ice pick to get it out. Paul

    Trailer lighting is pretty simple. Just tap into the brake lights. Trailer companies sell a crimper that crimps the trailer light and the brake light at the same time. No need to splice wires. Paul

    I think he is talking about part number 18. It looks more in the shape of a triangle. Paul
  15. PAULSPEED
    It is a San Francisco car. All he can hit is manhole covers and driveways. Wonder how many there are in San Francisco? Paul

    Your pads look gone. I would buy new pads and see if they look strange. Most calipers are held on with two big bolts. Remove the caliper and pads, spread the opening and install the new pads. You might solve your blue and white clips once the brakes are removed. Paul

    Looks like it pries out. You can always buy a new one from sunset imports. Then you will learn where to pry. Here is a picture. Paul

    Here is how you remove the door trim. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?/tutorials/article/7-door-micro-switch/ Paul

    Look at a close up of the two bumpers. The head lights are somewhat different. You would need to buy a new bumper and do some bodywork to get the bumper to fit. Even then the parts may not line up just right. I suggest you buy a car with the lights. Paul
  20. PAULSPEED
    Somebody did the switch with the rear lights. You need to buy some module when you buy the rear lights. Search is your best friend. Paul

    I recommend Pagrid blues. They work real good at the track and they don't cost a fortune. I buy mine at this site. www.ebsracing.com Here is the do it yourself. The 996 brakes are the same as the 997 brakes. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?/tutorials/article/53-brake-pad-change-instructions/ A note that carrera and carrera S brakes are different. The S brakes are bigger. Paul

    It looks like a screw driver unlocks it so it must snap back into place. See picture. Paul
  23. PAULSPEED
    I would say about one to two hours labor if he has worked on Porsche's. You have to remove the wheels to remove the wheel liners. Paul
  24. PAULSPEED
    Here is the details for the adjustment of tray. It looks like the tray sits on the adjusters. Paul
  25. PAULSPEED
    The 996 has about 4 different trays. You should check your tray part number (996 631 173 00). The bow piece number 16 locks in the light. Look at you owner's manual and it will show you how to remove the light. Good luck. Paul
