[carl74344]

i am not sure if this is a porsche problem. i have been buying all this stuff to fix up my 1982 911sc. boxes and boxes. UPS and FEDEX all the time. the problem is i just can not stop driving it long enough to put all this on. too much fun!!!! how do others do it........is it a porsche problem?

It's easier in the winter. Get to work!

[80-911SC]

is that a pre bought it pic w the for sale sign ... or are you selling it ????

nice car .. not the best resolution on the picture .. but .....

actually the first question is the question .... hopefully you are not selling .... although it has been said many are just care takers of the cars ....

as for me ... not selling .... up to three of them and ....

(actually my wife would dump me if i got another ... but i would have more room )

yup, good luck, no cure, like hep-C

[Nico911]

Ummmm these wheels !

[Aurel]

The only known cure is a second Porsche.

I love mine so much I drove it every day for the first 5 months.... 14k miles in that time!

Totally normal... I have boxes waiting also!

Aurel, I looked at your dyno map. Cool looks like just runs on the iphone internal accelerometer, right? Doesn't need gps.

I was using an iPod touch, which has no GPS.

When you are forced to shut it down for a few days, go nuts and install everything you have. Then start buying more btw, it never ends.....and thats a good thing. I just returned from a 80 mile drive so I can relate to it being too much fun to stop driving

[carl74344]

glad to hear that it never goes away...i have been reading post here for 6 mo. my plan is keep the stock look i like but go for better handling and power.... i will paint wheels black... the car is in great shape just needs little things.... first is front and rear handling.....carl


ps. thanks to everyone for the kindness and all i have learned so far and i the future..
