Great job Dan!

Will be ordering a cometic head gasket for my 951 come january. Those are some good prices! Also, some ARP headstuds for a 951 would be great too

I still really need a set of rod bolts too. I do not want to miss the next group buy!

This is very impressive. A good looking website always makes me want to buy something from it even more. Makes it feel legit. Look forward to me taking more things off your hands, Dan.

Great work Dan, if your shop was around when I bought my car, it would be a different world for me now.

Thanks again guys, for all the encouraging words


I added a couple of new features tonight to the used parts bin section...you now have an option to "make an offer" online if you don't like the listed price on any used part. All you have to do is put in your offer price, your email address (twice for verification) and submit...an email comes to me, I review it, and accept or counter offer.


Also added a button to request help finding parts that aren't listed on the site. And at Maybe924's suggestion, added some basic text links at the bottom of the page to the about, group buy, downloads, and contact pages (they were only linked by the graphical icons previously).

Great initiative Dan!

Dont you know anyone who could make a new gear lever to us who uses the g31 box, cant find it anywhere, making shorter throws at the same time would be awesome!




Heres some more files you should have, most of them i found on emule many years ago. A friend of mine uploaded them on his site:

the "kjetronic felsökning" is a pdf for diagnostics on kjetronic..

@Cedric re: the G31 short shift lever
Lizard developed one a while ago, I have one of them in my 941. The last time the subject came up, he wasn't interested in making any more of them himself, but I will ask I will ask him for permission to duplicate it. Then I'll have to see about getting them reproduced. There's probably not enough demand to do too many of them, so ideally, we'll need a shop that will be willing to do them as one-offs for a reasonable cost. I'll add this to the growing list of things to put on the wishlist of product development

Speaking of which, could you add a "bolt-on, brake-handle-and-accelerate like a 997 Turbo" option to that list? My best offer is five-hundred bucks...

Sweetness. Good job!

And I must give Dan a plug: I've bought from him and got what I was expecting every time. Guys, he sells his music, too...

Haha! I actually have a rendition of it that I've adapted from Vince Guaraldi's arrangement. My studio is in disarray at the moment...but maybe I'll have to get my butt in gear and start planning a follow up to "Simply Christmas". I have enough material for another full recording...and I have another 5 CDs worth of original stuff...

Thanks for the plugs guys
