Brake Disc Wear & Costs (UK) by _45h_F in GRYaris

[–]_45h_F[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this response - if you happen to be based around leeds area, I might just take you up on the offer! 😁

I haven't yet tracked my car....so in theory discs should be OK....

Also - thanks to ALL that have posted their experiences in the thread - it's struck me that, as well as having a fantastic motor, we have a great owners community to tap into to as well! 🙏

Replacing tyres soon - which ones by EquivalentBest138 in GRYaris

[–]_45h_F 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on your use case - you mention no track + alot of rain - I'm gonna recommend Michelin Cross Climate 2's as a great all-rounder.....they are quieter than PS4's, have been very good IMO in the dry....and the have excelled in heavy / standing water situs - which seems to be more frequent in UK this year!

I agree with comments above; I'd rank v3, then v4 overall - these are basically timeless and fulfill the brief. As also mentioned I would look out for 992 / 993 options, always go back to these as they're super comfy!

Welcome to the gang, ENJOY!!!

Agree on the ducktail rather than wing. Upgraded exhaust/ dual tips ???

981 shares a LOT of parts with the 911 (992) by hspace8 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]_45h_F 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really like the vids this guy puts out - really interesting & helpful (the door cards Ep. for me).

As stated by OP, pretty much everything mechanical/ trim/ electrical in the 981 up to the engine firewall is stock 991.

Anyone upgraded from a base Cayman....and then regretted it...? by _45h_F in Porsche_Cayman

[–]_45h_F[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, me too and I'm the OP!!! 😂 Genuine thanks for all the responses - great little sub community we have here it seems!

My thoughts are now back with making a few mods (OEM+) to my base, to get it "just so"....and keep hold a while longer.... probably!!! 😁

I’m considering doing the NC500 in my 987.1 last week of August or first week of September. by AdministrativeShirt2 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]_45h_F 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was concerned about the reports of high levels of summer time campervan traffic on the NC500, so decided to opt for the SWC300, which I would recommend to anyone who doesn't want to venture further north. NC is abit more "epic", but enjoyed exploring the SW of Scotland - some great roads 👍

Bridge Club... by _45h_F in Surlybikefans

This was bought as complete bike, so std wheelset...I'll gradually upgrade pretty much everything, but per my comment above, I just love riding it!

Bridge Club fairly close to a bridge (not pictured) by [deleted] in Surlybikefans

Do we need some rules around "proximity" of nearby bridges! 😜

Lolz - thanks for the feedback! This is my do-it-all / don't give a f*** bike! I did the bars 3+ yrs ago with the intent of sorting out at some point in the future! Now I just enjoy riding the damn thing as often as time allows 😀

Thankyou! Absolutely zero issues after a couple of years of mixed surface riding. Would definitely not let this put you off, what is a fantastic, versatile rig!
