Zero: Front Big Brake Kit upgrade.

Planning out a big break upgrade for the Zero with some parts I've had on the shelf for a while, some parts I bought for a song on Ebay, and some parts I've made myself on my mini-lathe.  Oh, and some rotors from an NB Miata.  All told, should shave around four pounds off the unsprung weight from the front suspension. (Would be around 8lbs if I also spring for the two piece rotors.)

996: Stereo trim upgrade.

 I've not been good about keeping this blog up-to-date or making good content about the 996. I'm going to try to resolve that.

Here's a quick video I did on the last touches of an Alpine iLX-W650 head unit install that took maybe a bit longer than I'd have like.  It's fluff but...Whatever.

Project-996: Overdue Introduction

I bought a 2002 Porsche 996 back in March, 2021.  Grabbed a friend, headed down to Orange County for a weekend road-trip to pick it up and drive it back.  I haven't post...uh...anything about it here which is honestly kind of a mistake on part. The experience of owning a higher-mileage Porsche has been interesting.
