    Geoff, I have available a clutch assy from my GT3, DMF w/ring gear, friction plate, release bearing, guide tube and pressure plate (GT3 RS). Items have less than 5k mi, no track just around town driving. These items were removed by the dealer looking for a noise, as it turns out this didn't have anything to do with the noise issue. So I now have these almost new extra parts available. Please let me know if interested. Ray

    I used he 925 as well, pleanty big enough. I don't think these guys are gell but actually a dry cell, no vents of any sort and are shipped differently than the wet or gell bats. Also moved mine to the floor of the front compartment, lowered the weight location by 1 to 2 ft.

    Found it , just getting lazy in my old age ;)

    I've located the"telephone connector" below the cd storage. The colors are red/green, black/green, yellow, and brown. I need power for additional gauge illumination, wondering which 2 wires should be used for this purpose. Is one of them a ground or do I need to make my own ground connection? Also which would be best choice for power (12vdc)? TIA

    There was a performance package offered, X73 and X74 which consisted of a stiffer motor mount along with performance and suspension upgrades. These mounts, stiffness wise, fall in between the ROW 993RS mounts and the standard 996 mounts. The problem being my '04 gt3 has 993.375.049.06 series mounts which I believe are the standard 996 mounts and according to the PET I should have 996.375.049.90. I'm not sure why there there is a discrepancy. What I'm looking for, are the mounts that would be used with the X package upgrades. It may very well be that 996 number but I have no way of knowing. Porsche has so many mounts and different types it's hard to know what is really required. Some use the same P/N but have a painted color code to identify them. The more I learn the more confusing this whole thing becomes. TIA Ray

    Wondering if it might be possible to provide the P/N for the X73 motor mount. TIA Ray

    Bump steer city! Going over a bump or over a pot hole must be a nightmare. I assume you didn't do anything the fix the messed up suspension geometery.
  8. RayGT3
    Really don't think so. Completely diferent mounting. I'd be sure before spending any money.
  9. RayGT3
    OK, if you insist. LWFW lighter, louder exhaust upgrade to two piece floating rotors and race pads Lighter wheels sticky tires Race cats Change diff to 1:4.00 loose some of the suspension rubber stiffer motor mounts Alcantara steering wheel Roll bar 5/6 pt Harness CF front hood loose back seat Adjustable Shock upgrade sway bar heim jt. drop links and last but not least, a passenger air sick bag for the glove box. But seriously, I could think of many other options but once I start thinking that way. I get too tempted to make more changes of my own. So I'll let others have a shot at additional money you can spend. I'm guessing but this list would come to somewhere around 20K.

    Let me be the first to offer this option, the best way to make your car go fast is to learn how to drive it that way. De's and instruction are invaluable in learing this. In my opinion this is money extremely well spent. Untill you can drive the car faster than it can currently go, additional mods are just a hobby and really you won't see much benifit from them. That being said, the least expensive way to improve performance is in weight reduction. The lighter you can make the car the more responsive it becomes. In some cases it can make a dramatic difference. Examples, lighter and relocated battery, lighter wheels, loose the spare, etc. Use your imagination, LBS = HP. Best of luck and enjoy.

    Take the car out and drive the wheels off it for about a week and the smell will go away on its own. Its probablly all the assembly oil and assorted fluids slowly burning off.

    Your gereric silver paint will work to a great extent but will need some attention on occasion. There is epoxy based spray paint available which might prove a bit more durable for a few pennies more than the regular paint. But either one will do the job. Big thing is to make sure the surfaces are clean and oil free, for obvious reasons. Actually I wire brushed and just clear coated mine, no silver, looks great.

    I'm looking for the P/N's for a '05 GT3 RSR 8:32 ( 4.00:1) Ring gear and Pinion shaft set. Thanks.
  14. RayGT3
    Need bolts and washers, Mr Rieser mentioned the bolt needs to be longer than OE though, 130mm.
  15. RayGT3
    Apparently the current hot set up for replacing the sloppy "comfort" GT3 motor mounts, is to use the 993 Euro RS mount. I would appreciate the OE P/N as well as any pics/drawings that might be available. Your response to this is appreciated. Tnx Ray

    I had Vic Elford sign my passenger side air bag cover with silver sharpie. Wondering if someone might know of a clear spray that might be applied to protect the sig.?

    Wondering if the time duration is programmable as to the length of time the lighting is illuminated when the engine and luggage doors are left open. It would be nice to have the lights go off after a set short period of time (5 min.), for like car shows etc. when the doors are left open for what could be hours at a time.

    I have an '04 GT3, Has anyone removed the carpeting and tools etc. from the front compartment and relocated the battery to the floor? Wondering if it's just the obvious or there are any tricks to doing this. Also any pics would be appreciated. Saw some cup cars at the Glen, should have taken some pics then. Tnx Also, Anyone have the paint code for the interior white paint?
  19. RayGT3
    Don't smoke either, Glass gets that haze from the plastics etc. used on the interiors. I do drive with the windows open quite often and the road dust/film seems to accumulate on the window. But to be truthful, it's been over a year since the last real cleaning. If I had an easy way of doing it, the window would get cleaned more often.

    Been using Zaino for 9 years on two different cars. Tried several others but always come back to Zaino.

    I've got an '04 GT3 with a rennsport roll bar and OE seats. Has anyone come up with a way to clean the rear window without having the dexterity of a circus performer. Also are all window cleaners created equal? Your preferences and why.....? Tnx.
  22. RayGT3
    The change requires one bulb per corner for a total of four. 15 - 20 min to change them all.
  23. RayGT3
    I have over the course of time (winter), coated my headers. I did take them to Swain Tech. and they did their usual superlative job. They are now back on the car and are performing as designed, as far as I can tell.
  24. RayGT3
    Very simple, only a bulb change.
  25. RayGT3
    Ended up using Sylvania 7507AST, look great no more orange. They were $17.50 a pair, at the Bulbman ( no affiliation ).
