Poole, UK @Jamessamuel4 997.1 Turbo Model 2008 Year April 2015 Acquired 996.1 GT3 Model 2000 Year January 2018 Acquired August has been a very quiet month with the cars. Sadly I had to cancel a track day at Goodwood as we were due to complete on our house move, although very annoyingly it moved by a few days so I could have attended after all.

With my next one not booked until October it seems a perfect opportunity over the next couple of months to do some checks and maintenance on the GT3.

Due to the move the cars have also been in storage at a friends, so other than the occasional chance to pop over and grab them for a quick run not many trips have been completed, though I did make it to the 9Werks open day at Poole Accident Repair with my nine month old, which was informative. It was fun to catch up with some friends there, too.

The Turbo had an issue with a brake pad warning sensor which was quickly rectified, and I have also picked up the special fluid for the front diff clutch packs, so once I get the cars back I can get down to ZRS Engineering to give that a flush and that will be all the fluids changed in the last month.

While in, Matt wanted to do a full scan of the car using his durametric pro, which showed everything to be fine, and the all-important rev range report showed nothing of concern.

While being between houses ZRS has kindly let me use their office to work from, and they’ve had some great cars in for work. A lovely 912 was in for some suspension tweaks and updates plus a lovely set of custom centre-exit tailpipes, and a 3.2 Carrera was also in for some TLC.
