Some random photos from the last local Porsche owners run.
A good fun, about 100+ miles, Lisburn, Comber, Newcastle, Banbridge and back. Some fantastic cars and arousing noise through out the trip particularly @big_pete 's Aston and the new GT4... A typical autumn weather in our beautiful wee country are just blessing!
I do felt that however, the car is a bit under powdered and bloody quite ... hmm exhaust modification with a bit more power (220hp) would be nice, but priorities... Some photos that I took:
And the final image, what's missing?

It’s been a long time since last update... busy adjusting the madness before and after Christmas, car has been mostly in storage so far.
Gradually ordered all the service parts from Porsche and convinced myself to get into the maintenance thing myself.
firstly warming up the oil with this wee fella
When the oil is full warmed up, I can drain it. Replace all the gaskets, valve adjustment and engine, gearbox oil refresh. Clean all the muds and under seal the car. The current condition for the under seal is actually quite good.
I am using backside method with a 0.0025” Go and 0.003” NoGo gauges. It is tricky to get them set right, but got it at the end... 2x6 valves...
Oh, the collection of broken gaskets, surprises me how brittle they are!

Superb!
The car is crying out for a period registration plate to finish it off.

It has been a tough period due to the lockdown, but we have done two coastal routes since April, weather has been fantastic and with bunch of lovely people, what else can you ask for?
The sc has been running so sweet, the chassis and suspension are well planted for the winding roads. Really enjoying the ownership so far, hassle free
Ducktail will be fitted next week together with my own touch on the colour a d inspirations on the original seat insert.
