1986 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa
Since 2017, a friend and I would attend the local "Porsche Day" at Larz Anderson Auto Museum and would always say one year we'd park next to each other here. 2024 was that year. Pretty rewarding feeling, also cool to attend with the car basically all stock knowing I wasn't going to leave this thing alone.
On the ride there, my friends wife was taking a video of my car and when I watched it back, I noticed the rear wheel had a bit of a bounce to it. I assumed it was a tire balance issue, but it ended up being bad rear struts. They were pretty shot, I knew they needed to be done as they made some noise, but didn't think they were "bounce your wheel at 75mph on the highway" bad.
I ordered up some green Bilstein's and threw them in the rear. It helped greatly while the suspension "bug" kept creeping up on me. It also raised the rear end even higher which drove me nuts lol
