A mechanic told me that these cars do not like to sit around.
I would run your old gas till your about 1/4 tank. Then fill up with
new gas. Run the car till 1/2 tank. Clear the codes. Warm up the car
and then get on it.

Looking for experience?
Over 1,000 Porsche's will be at Laguna Seca in
October for Rennsport 4. This is the first Rennsport
on the West Coast.
The Museum will be moving four cars to the event.
Check out the Zone 7 site for a poster.

Clean the egg off as fast as you can. Eggs
really damage paint.

I see what your looking for. I feel you would be better
keeping your wear rating between 220 to 260.
If your wife is driving, and she pushes it because of someone else, the car could
brake loose and spin. Even I have spun the car on the track with the
computer on.
Good luck on your decision.

The Pirelli P zero tires have two choices. The Corsa have a hradness of 60
and the Rosso (N1 or N2) tires are 220. I went with the Rosso's and they are holding
up pretty good for the street. They do make alot of wheel noise and slide alot
on the track.
Look at tire rack for some 220 tires.

parts from Sunset.

Adding a sway bar to the rear took about one
hour. Not very hard at all.
I did not do the front one. I was told by a race mechanic
that you have to remove the radiator hoses to get to the
bolts that hold it on. I also heard that you can push the hoses
out of the way to get to the bolts. It is not as easy as the rear.

I added a rear sway bar to my car. Very easy
thing to do. The car tracks alot better.
The stock sway bar caused the inside front wheel
to raise above the road so it did not help withgrip.
I also added some shims to the bottom toe arms to
give it a more than stock race setup. This helped with
high speed turn ins. The high speed turn-ins are now
more crisp then before.

Maybe a monsoon that dumps about 5"inches per hour.

I think it's if someone shot a load of water thru
your air filter.

I once read a real good DIY on how to paint your
calipers red.
It sounds like your dimensions might be smaller.

The brake pads are bigger on the S. When I order bakes,
I need to tell them that it is for an S car.
I have plenty of pads so I just measured them
and here are the numbers. The Front ones should measure
5 1/2" and the rears are 4 3/4" inches.
Good luck. The hardest part of doing the brakes is
removing the wheel.

I once read that the heater and the air conditioner work at the
same time. Maybe the settings are not right on the heater
side.
Is there any difference in auto mode verses manual mode?

Help, rear side window rattle

You could shove some guitar picks between
the glass and rubber. After you locate the noise,
then cut up a credit card and use
the small piece.
