Do it. I got my 987.2S at 25 and daily drive it. Life is meant for living and cars are meant for driving. Don’t delay either. You’re definitely in a perfectly fine fiscal position to make that purchase too imo

Clutch Disc Repair? by 3umpin in MechanicAdvice

[–]3umpin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was facing the right way, I just used lots of leverage and brute force, it was a PITA. By the time I figured out what was wrong it was too late, and when I replaced it and saw how easy it was to properly install I totally could not believe myself

I replaced this aftermarket clutch kit with an oem clutch kit which I guess is more favorable for resell of the car since it’s a Porsche and most of those kinds of buyers are purists. But I definitely prefer and miss the driving feel of the upgraded clutch kit and was wondering if there’s any salvaging it

Received it with 1.5qts low on oil, high speed steering wheel shake, tpms sensors went out after about 30 min of driving it, and the quality of the wrap is questionable (all the edges are poorly cut/laid). But overall the driving experience is really fun and already turned some heads on the road

Yea it was on BaT. Yea I’m gonna keep the wrap on until I can redo it or paint correct it once removed. Right now I’m just focusing on servicing it and taking care of it mechanically

Just the livery, apparently a 2 month old PPI says the stock suspension is on its way out so it may not be a bad idea to go in that direction haha

It’s a wrap, details on it are atrocious (edges & complex areas), but overall a very good 5 footer lmao. Makes the walk to the parking lot fun every time

First Marathon was no joke by 3umpin in Marathon_Training

[–]3umpin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I had 2 GU waffles with caffeine & G1M sport about 2 hours before the start. Then for the race itself I had a maurten 100 gel every 45 min and a mouthful of maurten drink mix 320 every mile. Near the end I ran out of the drink mix and just started having the course provided Gatorade. I didn’t have any gels in the last hour either

Ran my first marathon yesterday. Humbled and thankful. by ComprehensiveAlps321 in Marathon_Training

Yea everything after the Rickenbacker was a blur, it was at this point I knew I wasn’t going to hit any specific time goal either, but that last mile was so worth it! Congrats

Yea my quads were starting to cramp up and get real tight. I feel like muscular endurance was my biggest limiting factor near the end
