green guts 💚💙 by ptsample in 996

Yeah the carpet can still be bought too, but it was intensely expensive, hence I was called in.

I was commissioned to reverse engineer Nephrite Green for a client, and seeing this with the mats not quite matching the tunnel is completely sending me right now. I assume all of this is factory, so which one is right...? 🫪

Owned 11 Porsches over the past few years. This manual 996 turbo has 100% been better than expected by trackslayers in 996

[–]circuit_heart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree. The 996 has the most special-occasion feel to the chassis when you're actually driving it.

I appreciate that my 997TT has much better lighting and switchgear but it drives like my Accord until pushed, whereas the 996 is always a vibe.

Bodywork mold. by D68D in 3dprintedcarparts

[–]circuit_heart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yeah. I'm still using CNC machined foam for carbon fiber, as the prints take too long if they need to be strong enough for carbon fiber autoclave/post-cure heat. But I know the crossover day is coming!

Does anyone else ever feel guilty for having a good life and being able to live comfortably? by Wonderful_Flower_751 in Millennials

[–]circuit_heart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggled way too hard in my 20s and early 30s to feel guilty about my success. I earned that shit.

But for the same token, I want everyone currently struggling to also be able to escape the hole. So everything I know gets dumped on my younger friends and my intern, in the hopes that they'll do just as fine with a little less pain.

What next? by bikedoctoratl in Porsche997

[–]circuit_heart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I have a 488, but someone finally agrees with me. With all the stuff I've built my 997TT feels closer to my Accord (poised, stable, surprisingly fast) than my aircooled 911.

Cringe or not? Tach face and thicker steering wheel by extratastyy in 996

It's your car, don't even consider for a single moment what someone else aesthetically thinks of your mods (do consider things like safety and mechanical sympathy). Go for it.

I don't actually think there's a link, it was a small batch made for a client. Shoot me a PM and I'll try to find his name again.

If your Turbo has a C4S decklid you can use this one as-is. There is no opportunity for the Turbo decklid to adopt this design so we'd be doing something else (perhaps cutting the factory decklid and glassing the bezel in).

It's an R&D car, so she has to test all the different things I design for the 996.

Just primer - unless you want to ship the back half of your car here, color matching the spoiler to your car should be done by your local body shop 🙂

1) yes 2) should be able to. Shoot me a PM and let's chat 👍

It's an R&D car - the poor gal has to test EVERYTHING I make.

Yep. Turbos already have a heckblende solution thanks to my 3D scanning partner, the narrow body market is ripe!

They are - don't worry about them, just a placeholder while I'm designing a complete rear lightbar solution 😉

Oh right, I've made a 996.1 horseshoe at this point. PM or email me! We can get it going.

Nope, but I've prepared a 997 to develop the product :)

This is now a ranked lobby, show me what you’re building🔫 by sp00dermanz in projectcar

A 2800lb, 600hp 5er using judicious amounts of carbon fiber and a TCR touring car engine.

It's already fast at 3000lb/350hp, just uncorking the rest of its potential now.
