Thanks, I plan on keeping it for some time, this is the car that I wanted really bad!

The S4 is the best DD out there, it's fast, it's comfortable, & looks hot!

Can't beat that price! I wish I could get those for the NB but the solid spoke replicas are super heavy. My Ruf's are heavy but I believe the reps are even heavier at like 33 pounds per rear.

Did you ever raise the car or leave it where it was? Hopefully left it! I'm going to lower my front end a little bit this weekend to level it out a bit. She's ridin high and dirty....

Haven't touched it at all yet, but I do think it needs to go up 1/4-1/2 in.

I wanted something simple, my other cars are boosted, & some times, you just like to go N/A.

Plus, I could not find a good turbo, for my budget. All the good ones were over $75k.

I don't know what happened, we might have even talked & not realized it!

Can't make it on Sunday, I'm getting the car dynoed.

Funny as it seems there are a number of Ex E30 M3 guys who end up moving on to 993's, especially the "S's". I too owned a few E30 M3's in the past. I guess it's somewhat of a similar formula which draws us to the M3 and the 993's - smaller production #'s, widebody, amazing road feedback, and great motors w/ greater sound.

Gotta love it!
