You guys need to bounce over to the 912BBS for some fun!! Originally, playa posted he had the uber rare #3 912E. On the 914 tech forum, he now claims he really has #30. Aric Gless (THE keeper of all things 912) shows a photo of the #30car, which is a stock-looking, black car and #40 is a carbon copy of playa's. Makes ya wonder??

Mattcamp, I'm dying over here!

Could someone photoshop one of the Stosek wheels into Flavor Flav's clock just to give me an idea?

I figured the first playa thread was a set-up, this new one makes it official.

Playa....it appears no matter what or where you post on this forum, you continue to get "dissed", is that the correct ebonic spelling?

However, the replies to your posts from fellow PP members are comical and great medicine after a long day at the office...

KEEP POSTING - I need my nightly comic relief!

Me thinks "playa" has a tough skin and knows we're just having a little fun...I also am sure that he'll get genuine help and answers when he asks for it.

I believe he did when he asked how to make his car stronger, although it seems that making fun of the fellow is a better answer
I am not a fan of the car, but I don't have to be it isn't mine. Don't worry Playa, someone will help ya. There are a lot of good people very close to where you live, who have the answers you are looking for.

You know everyone has to start somewhere. I had a 70 914-4 as my 1st porsche. Wow I loved that car for some reason then I moved to a 914-6 what a difference .

Playa good luck and enjoy it. as you learn more and have more money available you can do what you want to it

GREAT NEWS!!! I can't tell you how much I learned adjusting carbs on my 1st Corvair with a UniSyn! Enjoy the heck out of your car, and it's going to be rewarding the more you get in there and DIY!!!
