I bought m 85 911 back in 1995. I tuned up the AC, and did all the possible things to get the best AC possible from factory stock, and it still really sucked.

Just spend some money with Griffith's and now I have kick butt AC that made my wife cold in Savannah, GA in August. She actually asked me to turn the temp up because she was cold!

I have 170,000 miles on my 911 now, and 175,00 or so when I get back from my Florida trip.

I have done all the projects that needed to be done. All the fuses, and little things, suspension refresh, and now 17 inch Euromiester wheels on modern summer performance (Michelin PS2 tires) and a when I had the transmission opened I replaced 5th gear with the TL .724 (29:21) gear. That dropped my RPM on the highway to what I think is perfect.

I have been to over 40 states in in, and I plan to hit all 48 states. Yea, I know Alaska and Hawaii make 50 states. Maybe, possibly trip someday to Alaska, but I am never going to ship it to Hawaii just to drive around.
