As promised -- some quick pics of the interior -- forgot to get a pic of the SRX install in the ashtray but that is not all that important.

996 Cup steering wheel with quick release -- please note that my wife got this as a present for me... the "Porsche" version, easily noticed by the red "Porsche" script on the 3 oclock spoke of the wheel... costs way more than that the statndard MOMO that does not say Porsche on the spoke... total waste of money... but I like it



Seats -- Recaro Profi XL SPG in leather with blue stitching -- I am 6'3" and to get clearance for my helmet, I take out the seat bottom cushions. In normal street driving, no helmet, cushions in -- no proplem.



Custom bar -- 6 point bolt in -- hard to photograph

 

Thanks for posting the pics!! I noticed the different steering wheel from the first "after" pics and wondered if it was the Cup version. What do you do for a horn these days?

 

In this picture right above the windshield wiper stalk (on the right) you will see a "wing up/down" rocker switch -- that is really the stealth horn button... I ran without it for a while... then a truck merged into me/my lane and I had nothing but brakes.... so I picked the top blank switch and asked the dealer to wire it for me...

 

Nice and clean! So stealthy it took me 2 minutes tryig to find it.

What's that turbo timer looking gadget just ahead of the gearshift ****?

 

Escort SRX radar (detector) and laser (detector/jammer) device.

I mounted all of the controls in the ashtray -- simply open ashtray and there is an l.e.d. (green=all good, red = getting hit), mute button (turns off jammers for 30 secs and mutes sound) and a power switch.

What you see in the picture is the units display which allows me to program the unit and set the volume. In hindsight I would have had that mounted in the glovebox and done the center console delete... but it does not bother me too much.

 

looks great...really like the RS wing

 

Pics soon? haha..

 

That's a Manthey Wing? Hey PJ, never noticed you had Cruise Control! Doesn't that add some weight?

 

yes -- manthey wing and mirrors... RIP sweet CF manthey splitter

Duber -- cruise control sucks as I hate having the extra stalk coming off the steering column... that is one option I wish I did not have...

 

That is very very nice. I am thinking about picking up a GT3 track toy to leave in europe when I am back home (italia). This looks like you did a great job.

I have spoken to Bill about some dymags for one of my CA cars, you should look at grabbing some. I hear that some are seeing 20+ hp from them!

 

I need a sponsor now... married with kid working guy and I have no more "safety mods" that I can get by the wife...

Dymags are what $$$$???? they must be at least $7-8K for a set or more...

I would take some Fikses and put the left over money into a custom exhaust... loud pipes save lives... maybe that could be the safety mod motto around my house for the rest of the year!

 

and where are my manners????

thank you for the kind words and welcome to 6speed!

 

Dang PJ, that steering wheel is tight.

 

Thanks MiniD, I really like it! You should pre buy one in case you ever get a 996 GT3
Performancewise it offers way better "feel" than the stock three spoke
the diameter is smaller which I like but that is just a personal preference
I love the quick release as well... my fat *** with helmet and hans device on... very difficult to get into the car... so having the extra room with the wheel out of the way is nice. I guess it is a theft deterrent as well... but I leave the wheel on the passenger seat when not in use... so maybe not so much...

 

Awesome!
