Planet 9

I started my search 9 months. Originally looking for a 2001-2003 boxster to just have as a fun car. Over the course of 9 months i realized that i really liked the newer interior of the 05 boxster. It was shortly after that i fell in love with the Cayman. I always wanted a white with some sort of tan interior. The wife wanted a tip trans. A few weeks ago i found the car i had been looking for, a 2008 Cayman. I bought this car from the fine folks at Park Place Porsche. The specs are natural brown...

I'm considering using Strosek equipment (carbon rear spoiler, side skirts, exhaust) for my Cayman S
Has anyone had previous experience with this equipment and the NJ distributor Fred Opert Racing
thanks

O.k. I'm a a first time Cayman buyer. I need help with the price quote because i have no idea what kind of offer can I ask the dealers for.



Here are the options I would like to have on my car.....


1. Automatic
2. Auto power seat
3. premium package plus (this includes bi-xion lights and navigation right?)
4. remote CD changer
5. I need steering wheel control (but I couldn't find that option when I built in online?)...

I called IA today to see if they could pry an update out of Aristocrat and they promised to call me back after doing so. 5 minutes later I got the best news I've had on this project for quite awhile... The cam timing issue has been fixed and the car is ready to go back to IA!

Reportedly they were able to retime the cams without having to drop the motor out so there shouldn't be any re-installation issues due to the custom nature of my beast.

On a side note...

I've been keeping up with the thread but not doing so well keeping my blog updated. Sorry!

I've mostly been in a holding pattern waiting on Aristocrat/Porsche to accept that the cam timing problem was actually a manufacturing defect that they needed to remedy. IA notified Aristocrat of the problem as soon as the motor was in my car and running, and before I took delivery on MARCH 23RD...

They FINALLY had a qualified mechanic available to check the car out starting...
