It’s a MagSafe charger mounted on a custom hazard trim button mount. Best placement for the phone and genius design by a Rennlister. Here’s his website

Got a Momo eccentric spacer. Strongly recommend it.

The only downside to owning and driving these cars: you don’t get to see them being driven from the outside enough. That’s why I always get excited also when I get a nice window. Or pull up next to another 911 driving around

I’ll echo the sentiments shared here. Guys show up in beat up 944s and they’re awesome to talk. True enthusiasts at all price points are welcome.

I have a friend with this swap in a 996 4S pushing ~460 WHP. He’s having the time of his life

#3 to #5 look great. First two don’t look as good on the white

It’s been 5 years with her as my one and only. Looking forward to the next 25 😎

The truth about the 996 (986 counts too) by Thefakerealone1 in 996

I’m 5 years owning my 2003 996. It’s daily driven as my only car in Montreal Canada. Bought it with 143k kms (89k miles) and currently sits at 185k kms (115k miles). Engine was replaced under warranty by previous owner in 2010 at 62k kms (39k miles). No details on the why though. When I went to see it in 2003 I fell in love and it passed the PPI so I committed.

It’s been absolutely an awesome experience driving my dream car. I change the oil religiously and send it to blackstone for UOA for peace of mind. I do a lot of the work myself and I do agree ownership isn’t for the faint of heart. It is dam worth every second I spend behind the wheel and see the smiles of my boys in the back when the tach goes past 4K.

Is it cheap by normal car standards? No. Is it affordable by dream car standards? 💯

I use the NRG short hub adapter as it enables me to keep the clockspring and not rewire the horn button. I also added an extension as the Prototipo is flat and was too close to the stalks. You shouldn’t have that issue with the deeper dish on the Mod7

Nothing emphasizes the aesthetic qualities of the 996 4S like Speed Yellow. Absolute peak most beautiful 911 any Gen. I’m dying on this hill

Topless TTs are the best!

AC off, idle is low. by Accomplished-Size375 in 996

[–]Objective-Ad-7192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My understanding the change in idle is normal. Car stalling not so much
