My C4S in its natural habitat. Sadly gone due to an expanding family and lack of garage space- replaced by an Audi B7 RS4 Avant)
I'vr said it before and I'll say it again- 996s are absolute performance bargains- an awful lot of car for not so much money....

My 996 T

Arrived in November, this year’s Hillclimb car after retiring from Rallying,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, again!
2003 X50, Engine mods by Matt at Fearnsport, new manifolds, actuators, re map, peaks at 1.4 bar, new 980 nm clutch, goes WELL. KW3 suspension, GT3 front brakes, wheel spacers, aero rear spoiler a Very nice spec.

Needs a rear LSD now, and some more aggressive pads then ready for a proper play, I cant wait

Nice liking car.

No way an X50 gives 1.4 bar. Mine read 1.3, but had a boost leak. Mine has a cat/exhaust mod & DMS stage 2 map.

I now have RS inter coolers, run 1.1 bar & the car is quicker than before 9E serviced it properly. They also confirmed it is a very fit car.

I run Ferodo DS2500 pads in my GT3 front calipers & it's great. Swap out the wear indicators for dummy's though.

As I said, it’s been modified, so not standard. Forgot to say is has a Tubi exhaust as well, so at least I can hear it.
Fastest thing I have driven, including a friend’s XJ 220 some years ago

I agree. The Glossglockner high Alpine Road is awesome. Privately run with track like surface quality. I love its wide sweeping turns where you can push a bit unlike the 1st gear narrow hairpins of the Stelvio. No wonder it costs 34.50 EUR for a few Kms.

Guess you have been there but for those who haven't been there it's web site is: http://www.grossglockner.at/en/

Glad you liked the GT2.

You can just about see me and Steve (997 turbo S) on the grossGlock. Fab road, Austria rules.

Yes Ufuk I've been up and down the road a few times, down is definitely a brake tester!... ^ Cracking pic Ric

Sorry to diverge slightly but I had no idea some of the passes were private, I thought the vignette got you everywhere. Are there many more?
