Nice driving!

What shifter do you have in the car and do yo have the stock cables?

When you shift it looked very percise and it appeared to click in.

Thanks

He goes by the "thepunisher" ... on this forum. Great guy from Italy. knows how to drive for sure. Him and I have were praising for years saying springs alone are great- with an alignment. I believe back in that video he was just on lowering springs and since then he has moved to coilovers. Kw i believe ?

p.s. GT3 RS are easy to pass

Bobby,

I've asked 'thepunisher' about his shifter before and he told me he got it from eBay. I thought the same thing about his shifts so felt compelled to ask. He has a degree of non-chalance that is really amazing...makes you feel like he's capable of just about anything behind the wheel.

Hey guys, you make me feel embarrassed ... i don't think i'm so strong ... it's all about the car !!!
So many time since the last time i visit the forum, been very busy ... in Italy we are experiencing though periods ... even using a 12 years old Porsche identifies you as a thief!
The equation is "You have a Porsche ? ... where the hell you stole the money to buy it !!!!"
This is why, most of the time, car is in the box ... but good times are close to come.
Ok, stop OT ... I'm gonna answer some questions i have read.
At the time of that footage car was on stock suspensions (no coilovers, no lowering springs) with a (Steve is right) short shifter bought on Ebay (i bought it in germany but i think is the same you have in the States ... the classic aluminum electric blu).
Now car is K24/18G equipped with a 1.3 flash tune from EPL, PSS9, GT3 adjustable lower arms, Eibach adjustable sway bars, semisolid Wevo motor mounts and some other nice stuff ... including a set of OZ Alleggerita wheels waiting to be mounted for the next event.
All i wanna say is a big thanks to all the guys of this awesome community ... you have been the inspiration for every modification actually installed on my car ... never stop, keep it up !!!
