why doesn't rennlist allow querrystrings

edit: Price reduced

hey guys,

i am moving due to a new job and it's not reasonable to keep two cars to me. Unfortunately the porsche loses out due to its lack of versatility:icon107:

I am a former mechanic and and engineer who is very meticulous. I love the car but i just can't keep it. It has been well maintained and i have records from since i have owned it (a few years). It is in great shape for nearly a 10yr old car. It has had some minor paintwork just to keep it a looker. With all of the rock chips and sandblasting from highway driving in florida, you would understand owning a black car. I debated not doing it but i felt it was for the better.

The car is tastefully modded and has a rare combination of options. Also, i updated the interior to the 02+ style which gives it a great look and feel. I only know of a couple other people who have done this which really makes it a more "modern" car without the added weight from the 2000-2005 911's. Along with the reduced weight of the 99's, it also has cable driven throttle that makes the driver more connected with the car as opposed to the later years with electronic aids.

I have most of the stock parts and i have the stock 18in sport designs and a car cover that will all come with it.

Details:
1999 porsche carrera c2
black ext. / black int.
6-speed manual
full factory aero kit
full factory carbon fiber
full factory leather
factory litronics

mods:
Tubi exhaust
18in bbs res custom finished
michelin pilot sport 2s
h&r race springs with h&r track+ spacers
custom 02+ interior conversion
b&m short shift kit
kenwood 7in touchscreen dvd/nav/ipod
jl audio component speakers
completely removable rear shelf subwoofer
silver hood badge
yellow calipers

i am including all of the factory extras including the rims. The car hasnt had any mechanical problems and all the updates have been performed. Clutch, brake, and tires life are all in good standing. If you buy this car there isn't any money that would need to be put into it right away. It is a great looking car for nearly 10yrs old and turns heads everywhere!

Thanks for looking!

well a lot of you guys saw my previous post on all the service work i did, so i figured i would make another thread summing up my opinions and giving some(lots!) of pictures...

Well to start, i put this: http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/porsche%20maintenance%20001.jpg

in this:
http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/on%20the%20lift%20007.jpg

all in all, it was about 10hours to do everything...lots of time was spent figuring out, rather than doing however...

I did all the stuff myself for a few reasons: 1) i cant afford to pay the dealer 2) the dealer is a ripoff usually 3) i want to learn about my car 4) it is fun 5) i have time, and if i do it, i know it was done right and not just done...

I had no service records from the previous owner so i just decided to do everthing. I knew it needed a clutch and the rms replace because of the ppi i had.

Here you can see the leaks:

removing everything is all pretty straight forward and easy. Having access to air tools is a big help on the half shafts! Removing the tranny is a breeze with a long extension and a swivel socket. The hard part is the top bolt, but if you tilt the engine back, you can get that one easily. The slave cylinder was the hardest of all of them, just because of how the lines are.

I got the tranny out to get my first good look at the leaking...yuck!!

as you can see, my ims was leaking like crazy. You can notice all of the coating and buildup underneath the motor. It looks like the leak had been going on for quite some time!

I removed the clutch and wow!!! It was so worn out, the rivets on the clutch were rubbing! It was literally down to the metal(see the shiney rivet)...here is a comparison of the new vs. Old and my dirty hands:

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20027.jpg

well now that i figured out why i couldnt shift smoothley, check out whats underneath...

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20028.jpg

wowzers! That ims wasn't happy, and the rms wasn't that bad...well i cleaned it all up and on to the work

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20032.jpg

to get the old seal out, i drilled a small hole into it, put a screw in, and used a pair of dykes to pry it out

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20037.jpg
http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20039.jpg

now the special tool...you slip the seal over the crank with the installing ring, then you put the hub of the special tool on the crank.
http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20043.jpg

it has springs that go over 2 guides that put pressure on the tool's outer casing, allowing equal pressure to be put ont he seal while cranking it down.

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20046.jpg

all done!! Now the ims...the ims is under tension from the chain tensioners, so it takes 2 people...remove the old one and istall the new one. My buddy put a socket over the ims shaft and used a bar to get leverage to force it to line up. We used the old bolts to get it lined up. Once the ims was seated, we put the new bolts in...i was running out of time so picture taking slowed up...

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20047.jpg http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20048.jpg

next was the case bolts. Do them 1 at a time and it's as easy as 1,2,3,4

while i was in there, i updated the clutch release lever as well...nasty tranny!

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20050.jpg

put her all back together and voila! No leaks!

Except the came cover :(

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/cam%20cover%20leak.jpg

i did the spark plugs and they were tedious but not bad...

The fuel filter is a lot easier then it first seems, but still not fun...you just have to reach in from the back where the tunnel starts to open and slide it out...dont take off or move any of the coolant lines etc..

http://plaza.ufl.edu/keith3/my%20car/porsche/maintenance%20and%20repairs/rms%20016.jpg

the cabin filter takes a whoping 2 seconds

i wrapped it all up, added royal purple 10w-40 and royal purple 75/90 for the tranny...a lot of people have heard negatives about the rp and porsche, but my car shifts like butter and runs smooth as all...i cant even tell the car is on sometimes!! The new clutch releases almost immediately and i love it!

Im putting the belt on today with my new clear tail lights and evo intake :)
i am also going to get a sound clip of the tubi exhaust that everyone wants here shortly...

I hope you guys enjoyed, and maybe will start to feel comfortable with diy projects!
