  1. Exactly so. And it’s a retrofit I’ve never regretted and would highly recommend to all for peace of mind. Permanent Solution LNE seems best way to go.
  2. Good call, Jeff. It may already be too late. Good luck, mj..
  3. Did you say metal flakes? Don’t wait, do the IMS right away. You will have immediate peace of mind.
  4. I think we missed the festival this year. Otherwise, Lagavulin. Cheers , ps: eventually went with Red Line 10-40 in my 2003 C4$
  5. I haven't been to the forum for awhile now, but glad to see the possible restart of the old "oil wars." 10-40 might be a better consideration in colder weather, but 20-50 probably ok. I recall using Castrol in my SC. Are you heading to Islay for the festival? Cheers, jl
  6. never heard of that model. 911T, 911E, 911S all in early 70's. but, and this is a big but, it might be a 911S modified by Weissach, 911S-W, and if so it's likely a rocket car, and probably raced.
  7. racing brakes. cool.
  8. use a silicon based lubricant, attracts less dust than WD40, etc. I had to replace the entire mechanism on my '79. good luck.
  9. Ps: are you on Isla, or really like the whiskys? Caol Ila? Lagavulin? Etc?
  10. Could this be a seat belt connector fault? change over to buckles with gold connectors? consider clearing with a Durametric. Many own them just for this recurring issue. Good luck. .
  11. Why do you need tires bryond the spec unless you are racing auto-cross or at Laguna or Infinion. Otherwise, stick with stock tire sizes as noted on inside of filler flap. IMHO. Unless,of course, you just like the look. I get that 110%. Cheers,
  12. What year? C2 or C4$? All season or summer tires? my C4$ ran 295/30 stock for summers. Check tire size on chart on inside of filler flap.
  13. Welcome to the forum. Yes, you are certainly right. But you can still go 125 mph and know you could go faster. And do curves too. The keys likely have to be coded by your local stealership and not for cheap. Enjoy. It’s truly an earned pleasure.
  14. Search engine will quickly become your good friend.
  15. No, don’t wait. Guaranteed that you will sleep better at night and feel better at speed on the highway.
  16. Amp in front in spare tire well? Factory set up or after market? check wiring at back of Becker 23 in dash as well? Maybe pull footwell panels to look. If not loose wires, likely a transistor or component in the amp unit
  17. the tire shop I have used for my C4$ places 2 hydraulic jacks at front, and then at rear. Its really fast. the jacks are usually in place when I turn around to look after getting out of the car. I think the points are under the shocks. Porsche was famous for the side lift jack. back in the day there was a special tool that fit in the jack placement fittings that allowed a standard garage jack to be used to lift the side of the car. most German car garages had one or two on hand. I bought one and kept it with the car.
  18. lots of information about this on the search engine. the search engine is a good friend. check this out and good luck:
  19. Hey Red, Long time no see. thought it was the light connector. My inde relies on me to remember to plug it back in. Cheers, j
  20. I think this is for either the third brake light in the spoiler, or more likely the engine compartment light. The spoiler light is only activated when the spoiler is in the raised position. The engine compartment light should come on when lid is open. Alternatively, it could be the emergency speed brake parachute release connector. Chute deploys at hard braking from above 145mph.
  21. Ok, smog check VW style emissions checker cheater plug? still could be drag chute factory option ?
  22. Factory option speed-brake parachute release.
  23. Ps: filler flap is only locked when car is locked. Otherwise just push on right side of flap to open. There is no push and release type latch like on Bmw.
  24. Search engine will be your friend. Threads on this one I believe. My car had a flimsy plastic emergency cable at right side inner door jam. It broke off, of course. I made my own emergency tool with a coat hanger which is neatly stored in right door handle pocket. Hope this helps. Cheers.
