Ninesomething Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) I've got a ballybar. From before they were called ballybars. So that must be worth money. I also have a GAN box which I rate and the exhaust bypass mod. Oh and a pipercross air filter. Must be making at least 350hp. Pretty good for a 2.7.

Tony ,it’s difficult knowing when to stop, I also forgot to mention 19” Design Classics!! Think I’ve covered everything,that are mods water pump AOS front engine mount, plugs, coil packs pads and discs all round, Suspension completely done short of replacing the struts (all preventative maintenance) Should I put this up for sale at some point all the bases are covered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in the future it will be the @RBD914 v2type of mods I will try too concentrate on . Loving the Aurum wheels Rob, did you spec the car yourself? ...PDK I presume.

No, I went back to a manual gearbox actually Tony. Yep, I specified the car exactly as I wanted it, nothing too fancy, I didn't want carbon seats, full leather, pdk, climate, cruise, bose, etc, etc.... I wanted a raw, back-to-basics roadster in which I felt 100% involved in the actual driving process. This objective was achieved in every way, this is (in my opinion) is a great looking driver's car with the minimum of luxuries to detract or distract from the purity of really driving and interacting with a powerful sports car. I think the 992 experience had left me a bit numbed to these feelings, as it went about its business like any other fast BMW/Merc/Audi - which left me a little cold to be honest, it certainly didn't excite me or inspire to go out for a drive just for the fun of it. I wanted that raw excitement of the GTS back, which the Spyder gives me in spades! This car is not merely a mode of transport, each drive is an "event" and an intoxicating interaction between man and machine! Try one if you get the chance, the 4.0 F6 718 Spyder is simply an awesome car in every way! By the way, I swayed between Black or Aurum wheels for ages, but glad I went Aurum in the end, they really lift the car to another level I think. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menoporsche Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 GT3 m/c, braided hoses. Cayman R tailpipe (should have been that from factory). Swapped the wheels. Spent more on uprating the nut behind the wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is exactly the point. Don't get me wrong any spyder is great but I don't think auto wipers and all that malarkey adds anything to the experience. Well, not for me it wouldn't.

cptspaulding Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 New head unit, Downsized to 17" Cayman alloys, Debadged rear, Porsche Revolution exhaust mod, & damn your collective hides I'll be adding the front strut brace(s) that I just discovered here & purchased today on fleabay. I'll look into that bally brace & otherwise I'll refresh the suspension at some point. I'd convinced myself that I have the car pretty much how I want it till I read about the braces - the suspension refresh was always on the cards.

Hate to say, but if they are the Porsche braces, some 987 shells come with the necessary brackets and some don't. They are welded on components at the factory so not a retro fit option. Bally brace 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caymen side vents and Zunnsport front grills , it’s quite embarrassing when you do step back and have a proper look and think !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano37 Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 Zunnsport grills, forgot about those. @driving_james, sorry no. I have Xenon Litronic headlights, so haven't upgraded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
