I am guilty of lusting after the fat ass variants but really that was the smart choice, well done!
I saw a Targa 997 in the same interior colour in the flesh and you do need to be brave indeed, but you know what, it does suit the 90s vibe in the 996.

Mine was a 1.2 16v which had the same brakes as the 1.6 16v. Initially used a gearbox from a Clio mk1 1.2 (weirdly it fits) which has shorter ratios but...
Hello everyone!
I know this is a long shot but I am looking for someone with good knowledge on camshafts and valve springs.
I have purchased a set of "sport" cams which ran for about 25000Km, until the engine died due to a valve hitting a piston. This is a K4M engine (1.6 16v) if it...
