Bought my 930 the year after I bought my house. There was always a Japanese sports car on my driveway since my college days but now its time I joint the big kids and chase my high school dream of a 911. I thought about the 996 but can't stomach the water cooling and the fried egg head lights. The 930 was sorted since I bought it from my Mechanic who was running out of money while building his new house. I have no idea about forms back then as I was looking for parts and found Palican, somehow I found the tech form for 911. Close enough even if it wasn't 930 specific. After a few years I found Rennlist and couple of those guys were real dicks so I left. Few years later, slowly, I left tech since I never did much of my own work and discovered this wild bunch and the topics were pretty interesting, much more so then tech. I only come here and call this my watering hole. This or the Miata form since I had one for a short time and the people there are you folks here, really down to earth which I enjoy.

Like so many others here, I landed on Pelican while looking for parts and tech information for a '69 E, hence my name. Stumbled upon OT one day and haven't had the sense to leave. :D
I must say I like the variety of opinions and experiences coupled with respect and civility.

Best
