new company car and Boxster for FUN!by Frissen - Main Forum
Quotegrant probably even mix-able, but i wouldn't. Grant My tech is not planning to mix them, clean the whole system and add new PINK coolant, he told me he has done it several times and so far no problemsby Frissen - Main Forum
QuoteBoxsterra If you have the code you can call them on the phone and have them order one. No biggie. Here in Mexico they only sell it by the set :/ Do US dealers sell it by the piece?by Frissen - Main Forum
I now have a noisy water pump so instead of waiting for things to get worse I'm just going to change it, since my dealer doesn't carry the GREEN coolant anymore my tech tells me to change to the PINK coolant, what do you guys think? any issues if going PINK? TIA Frissenby Frissen - Main Forum
Somehow my front left wheel lock is gone, it is number 22, any ideas where to get just one wheel lock? TIA Frissenby Frissen - Main Forum
photos of the lights? I have no experience with LED's on 986's but would like to see what you got see if I like 'em for mineby Frissen - Main Forum
thanks to everyone for the nice comments on the video. Sunday came and it was raceday, of course I took the 986 to the track but no time for video as my team is now composed of only me :/ so I had to hurry and get everything sorted out at the track, I did only one session before the qually and then the race... here is the video of the race... On Track enjoyby Frissen - Main Forum
QuoteMikenOH What kind of speeds do you hit with the kart and which video camera do you use? This video is done with GoPro Hero2 entirely. I believe we hit around 90 kph at the end of the straight but feels like 300by Frissen - Main Forum
This week we have the PSDS in our town, Puebla, Mexico. Levels I, II and III will be imparted and activities will end with a trackday and a Cup race... so here are some of the initial photosby Frissen - Main Forum
I believe you drive all cars and most likely they all will be PDK's as its the new box this is the one from Mexico last year PWRS Mex 2011by Frissen - Main Forum
finally Friday arrived a huge workload in the office made me run late yet I was able to see the 981's leaving and decided to chase in my own 986 we had a great lunch and headed back... I didn't make it to the end of the event but had a great drive and it was fantastic chasing the 981's at over 120mphby Frissen - Main Forum
Its some sort of Silver with Blue top & interior, but phone pics at night and with those integrated editors can cause a mess... I'll try to get more pics tomorrow...by Frissen - Main Forum
the new water based paints bring lots of depth and shine thus GR looks fantastic ! I already asked Porsche de Mexico for a GR 981 to do a proper shoot but who knows PdM is not giving a damn about us (Porsche Club Puebla) lately :/by Frissen - Main Forum
this coming Friday is Boxster Day at my local dealer, I was aleady booked but yesterday I had to decline the drive as I have a lot of work in the office... but these guys were quite busy prepping the new 981's... the showroom was also ready with an army of 981's the new Pepper GTS was there as well... also a lonely 997TT was at the very front... I'll sure make it for lunch with these gby Frissen - Main Forum
Q3 loaner from Audi Angelopolis down here in Puebla, Mexico From Audi Angelopolis we got an A6 3.0T for the first service and now the Q3by Frissen - Main Forum
I like the Touareg a lot and with brown interior I think is fantastic plus you can add any Cayenne wheel so a set of "22 TechArt would look fantastic IMO Q5 here after much debating between the X3 and GLK as well we finally decided on the Q Ibis Sline exterior Cinnamon interior but we had to go to the GmbH options to obtain the Sport Seats and Wood For us the GLK was ruled out almost immby Frissen - Main Forum
MY2000 2.7 986 Manual owned since new and not a DD until a year ago... Mexican driving conditions have certainly put a toll on my 986 but so far so goodby Frissen - Main Forum
BTW friday is Boxster Day at our local dealer... I hope I can make it... last club GTG I was the only MANUAL Porsche in the whole group all others PDK :/by Frissen - Main Forum
glad you like it Pedro... plenty of fun... just as a note on the video laps we were doing 58:ish seconds a lap when in reality we lap at around 56:ish and you know 2 seconds at this rhythm is WHOLE LOT! yet for video sake we had to slow ourslves downby Frissen - Main Forum
not much going on around here so I decided to hit the track with my dad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMnhyLSeph8&feature=share&list=UUZ5HwYbu78z5vApmxpEL66gby Frissen - Main Forum
QuoteMikenOH The GR car in your pictures looked terrific--very close to the quality of the color on our 06. Looking at the a local 981 in the same color, however, it looked a bit washed out: I thought it could be the wheels since they were a satin finish, until I saw another website with a shade that looked very close to the one at my dealer rather than the Houston show: It this an ambiby Frissen - Main Forum
QuoteRoger987 But, as Frissen pointed out, at $80k +, the 981 will be competing with relatively fresh 997S's... White wheels aren't my thing, but a clean car, relatively low mileage: Guenter, don't look ! It's a low mileage 911S Cab in ARCTIC SILVER, with a 6 speed and sports steering wheel. Don't look! ( Couldn't help yourself, could you.) hehehehehe... there is a plethora of 997 caby Frissen - Main Forum

I am glad many of you enjoy my report the whole point of making them Pics were taken with a meager and outdated point&shoot but we got to the point, if Porsche de Mexico lends me a 981 down here in Mexico I guess can capture it a little better. I leave link to all my past reports and our youtube channel I hope you like the stuff we have made over the yearsby Frissen - Main Forum
we drove it for a couple of hours...by Frissen - Main Forum
here it isby Frissen - Main Forum
we had the 981 presentation a couple of weeks ago here in Houston and test drove it this past Saturday... some thoughts... hella fast, no longing for a turbo Boxster anymore, S is more than plenty fast... handling is perfect, too perfect for its own good, you don't know if you are driving a car or a video game :/ PDK is crap, get manual... fit and finish, superb! jumped back into 986 and itby Frissen - Main Forum
