Just a bit of a rant here!!!!
mjfeeney replied to mytoy944's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Is it possible to install one of the tops with the glass rear window if the car originally came with the plastic window? -
AmsOil is not an oil additive, but a brand of synthetic oil. AmsOil is supposedly the first company to manufacture synthetic oil. It is also supposedly the best stuff...as well it should be at $8.00 per quart for the 0W-30. Check out www.amsoil.com In college I majored in Mechanical Engineering and was a member of the Society of Automotive Engineers. In our highly competitive Formula SAE car, we decided on the exclusive use of AmsOil lubricants. Here is a post from a guy who has done WAY TOO MUCH research on this topic: http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showt...ight=amsoil+bob

Hey guys! This is my first post here. Just had a couple of quick general questions for you. I have an 87 Mustang. About 3 years ago, I had a need for a 4 Door, so I decided on an BMW 325i. Many people, including my dad were trying to talk me out of it. "Parts are expensive" "It's gonna be hard to work on" etc. After owning the car for 3 years, I realize that some parts do cost more, but it's not outrageous. Other parts actually cost less than the Mustang (and appear as if they are better quality) Also, in my opinion, it is easier to do most of the work on the BMW instead of the Mustang. Now, I am thinking about a Boxster. What's the deal here? The first thing that has scared me is the fact that you can't lift a hood and see the engine at all. I assume that you have to drop the engine to do anything. Concern #1: Now I know this car HAS to be hard to work on, right? Concern #2: From what I have seen so far, parts appear to cost on average about double what the BMW parts are. Does this sound about right? Concern #3: I have been buying BMW parts online. What is the best source for Porsche parts? Concern #4: You can find the Factory BMW shop manual on e-bay doing a search on ETK TIS CDROM. Is there anything like this for Porsche? Concern #5: I believe I resolved this concern by stumbling upon this forum. I have looked at several Porsche DIY forums, and you guys seem to be the best group on the web!
