official Coolest Porsche related part bought 2005

[mb911]

With all the other best of this year stuff out there I thought we should do "whats the coolest porsche related part/thing you purchased in 2005

I'll start With my purchase of EFI for my car That made me get a laptop as well so it was double duty. I think its pretty cool what did you guys get?

[Superman]

I took another 50 or so pounds of stuff OFF the car.

[mb911]

That works

[widebody911]

I got a set of carbon fiber turbo front fenders for $300 on ebay
Elephant Racing monoball camber plates
33mm Sanders torsion bars (things of beauty - a shame to grease them up and hide them away forever)
fiberglass cab hardtop (oh wait, I made that myself )
full cage (ditto)

[glenncal1]

For me the Weltmeister strut bar. The way that solidifies the front end (even on a coupe) was really $$ well spent. Ben I think one of your exhausts will be the one for 2006.

Well, the coolest Porsche part I bought this year would be the entire car, but the single best part I purchased for the car would have to be a tie between the Recaro Pole Position seats and the 993 RS steering wheel (they work so well together).

An original 1972 Washington plate, still with the 1972 tag on it. This allows me to permanently register it and keep the '72 tag forever.

replacement stoplight bulb

Protomotive Stage I kit, 993 calipers

[legion]

Well, I bought the 951 this year...

Also, I put in a piston-type BOV, which replaced the broken rubber diaphram-type BOV. I think the fact that a broken BOV is essentially a half-inch hole in the intake between the turbo and the engine had a lot to do with the greatly improved performance.

Big Reds, BBS Rims, Elephant Racing Sealed Monoballs (F/R), ER Polybronze Bushings, Bilstien Sports, ER Rear Sway.

Why is this OT?

[HardDrive]

I think the 1st gear syncro John Walker just put in my 82 pretty 'cool'.

[MysticLlama]

Yeah, I did a lot this year too, hard to pick.

I did a stereo install
Removed the rest of the A/C completely
RS Carpet
RS Door Panels
BBS LM Wheels + S03s
Brembo GTP-LW brake kit
WEVO Shifter

Hmm... no wonder I'm poor.

I dunno, I love all of it, but I have to say I love the stopping power of the brakes on my 2500lb car.

That or the WEVO, which made the shifting much much better.

Okay, so that's two, whatever.

[masraum]

since it's the only thing I bought that's porsche related. Sometimes I just go out to the garage and look at the old fan and fan shroud that I still have from when I had a 911.

Well, I am getting ready to convert the bilsteins on the miata to threaded coilovers with stiffer springs, and have my new tan top with glass rear window installed. I guess that'll have to do until I get another Porsche.

[Peter T.]

A pair of leather Monte Carlo seats from GTS!!!



Merrrryyyy Christmas!!!

[masraum]

I believe I'll be buying a BF Torino LeMans for my miata in the next couple of weeks. I can't wait.

[ErVikingo]

Cool suit and helmet cooelr for my race car !

[thrown_hammer]

I got a bank check for my Porsche…..

[livi]

Porsche coffee mug. Broke in the dish washer. That was cool. Back to square one..

[id10t]

Got a good deal on glass for all around my 356 except the windsheild. Gonna keep my original original and tint the spares, go a tad outlaw when I have the resto done (next year, stock market willing)
