aidan Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Ekona - have no idea about Porsches but I will google the bits you mentioned. Car has just had a geo done along with BIG (gulp....pricey) service. Who did the geo? There's a proper geo by an expert, and then there's just getting it back in the green. The chassis on these cars are so good, you'll get the best out by going to the specialists. I take it you didn't get an inspection done before hand? If not, and at fear of terrifying you, google RMS and especially IMS failure. Also there's a chance of bore scoring, which the LTT can help prevent which is why I mentioned it. Nah, didn't get inspection done. And did look at the IMS stuff on internet. Car has full service history and had rear seal done at last service. Have all invoices and so on since new, and car seems well looked after. I will not be tracking it so not "to" :scare: worried about the bearing failure.....if it happens it happens.Got car for a very good price hence have some dosh left over if anything goes pop. Seems no ryme or reason for failures anyway - although low oil / heavy track use seems likely cause. Had a good run in it today - and I stand corrected. It is faster than the 350z...very deceptive speed though. Edited July 2, 2014 by aidan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they do look similiar wheels.# These are standard 3.4s 18 wheels (i think). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Track use has no bearing on IMS failure, or bore scoring. If anything it'll help, as you'll be circulating the fluids properly. If anything, not driving it hard when warm is the worst thing, and short trips are pretty lethal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
