RJMDAD996

Loren, THanks for the quick reply - the MAF was replaced last week - Makes no sense, they advised me they checked everything and the only problem via codes - tha MAF was replaced at $900.00 - Gotta Love Dealerships - My ONYL CONCERN - IS IT SAFE TO DRIVE 600 MILES WITH THE ERROR?

Lastly, the only problem other than the CEL re: P1075/072 - is Upon the am starting, the idle is very rough, not steady at all...Thanks again - really appericate it...

Brothers - I Have an 2003 996 with 78K miles - I am now getting error codes P0172/P0175 Fuel too lean - But I have to now drive 600 miles tomorrow, will it be safe? the car is driving fine and I just replaced my MAF last week.

Same concern here. I Just love this car full leather full CF, Violet Metallic, Champion tuned suspension+ wheels, full GT3 Aero kit, and well would like to consider all options before I drop $20k into a replacement and a SC. Bimmers are nice, had an 02 M5 loved it, just a little to big for my sporty taste.

:offtopic: I stoppped by the BMW dealer today to return the big bow borrowed to surprise the wife. I took a seat in the new Z4 Coupe - much smaller than an M5! The local paper's auto writer called it the "Cayman killer" at $20K less and 255 HP. I can't believe I can buy a brand new 2007 Z4 for the same price I paid for my 99 C2 three years ago. Humm....

Someone dropped him on his head as a child :beer:

77689 - 03 Targa

79.6K - Thus far - My Targa is PERFECT - Although I have many modification, she is still one hell of a JOY RIDE ! B)

I recently install my GT3 wing on my Targa which took only one hour max to remove the intergrated spoiler and mount the new wing - looks awesome :drive:

Amigo's I am in search of a DIY doc regarding the install of my new GT3 Wing. Any and all info would much appericated. :drive:

Understood - My Mistake...

I am more of a Prosche Fan than most, I am simply discussing the Best of Engines, Regardless of The Manufacture - Are we only wearing binnders here, I think not. At our level in this forum, shouldn't we have an open mind ? If not let me know and I will kindly exit.

Gentlemen, I want to talk about Engines, Not simply your standard 6 or high modified 4 bangers, but the Engines that are considered to be the best in their class, Hand made, careful attention to detail by the manufacture. The reasoning behind this thought, is, I just came back from a long distance drive using my wife’s CLK55 ///AMG, the 5.4 V8 AMG hand built engine is truly one of the best I have ever driven, the torque is amazing, it seems like it will never stop even at 120 she still pulls very hard, harder than my 996. With 368hp and 373 torque, it is one hell of a engine, Car and driver and Automobile magazine votes the 5.4 AMG engine on of the best ever made as well at the 3.6 Porsche 996 Engine, both of which I truly love. I had my wife race me off the line (mind you we both had on our winter tires) and she almost took me out, I had to work so dam hard to catch up and finally I took her, but not by much. I am very lucky to have two very fine cars at my deposal. My question is simply this, do any of you have another car that has a wonderful engine, if not, and what engine would you select to be one of the best in your experience? :cheers:

P.S Another beauty is the M5 engine my brother has, I believe it is a 2002 M5, I also love that car as a whole also, if I was to ever get into a four door sedan, it would be the M5. :drive:

Oh-Got It, Thanks...

Wear do I get this Cap and Wear is it placed ? Would it interfere with my Fabspeed Cold Air Kit ?

Well they just arrived - This time I went with (225/40VR-18 Pirelli Winter 240 SnowSport & 265/35VR-18 Pirelli Winter 240 SnowSport ) I only went on a 15 mintue ride, and the Pirellis drive very nice, not bad in turns also. I also picked up a set of Moda R18 wheels which were mounted and ready to go.

Well they just arrived in time for the NW Snow Season. :beer:

Hello Fellow P-Car Lovers, :drive:

This is my first post here on RennTech. I generally post on Rennlist and was advised to check out this forum. I currently own a couple of Porsche cars. My daily driver is my Black Beauty - 2003 Targa, with Custom Wheels I picked up in Europe (see below) and My Track Car 986S and last but not least, my Boster Winter Car, Yes Winter Car. With a set of Dunlops M2 Winter Sport Rubber, I can drive throught anything, provided that it is not higher than 6". Anyway I just wanted to say Hi and Look forward to reading and learning from you guys. :cheers:
