1997 Porsche 993 Carrera 2 Coupe - 3.8L / 6 Speed This is the ultimate example of the last of the legendary air / oil cooled 911s, featuring a purpose built 3.8L RS Spec engine. The car has brutal acceleration, yet is a dependable easy everyday driver. Complete rebuild 36, 000 miles ago. Select upgrades with factory original equipment appeal were fitted. The engine was meticulously built and invoiced at more than $21, 000 in 2008 with known proven, certified parts such as MAHLE Motorsport pistons & cylinders, RS valves, ARP fasteners and more. The exhaust system was left with factory original catalytic converters and mufflers to maintain quiet operation. The ECU was professionally reprogrammed and dyno tuned to a performance RS spec at Turbo Kraft, Inc. 3.8L RS touring style engine built to maximize reliability, street drivability with pump 91-Octane fuel. Easy pass emissions OBD II car. To maintain a comfortable yet sporty drive, the flywheel and clutch assembly were updated to a RS single mass middle weight version. The clutch and gear selection has smooth, easy engagement with the updated G50 cross shaft update kit. Nothing was ever left to chance with this car. Most miles from sustained highway distance driving. Not autocrossed or beat on, just my daily driver. Everything works, regular maintenance. Beautiful flawless wheels with great rubber. Paint in great condition but some small rock chips in front. See associated photo. Equipped with Blaupunkt radio with Bluetooth hands free phone. Elephant Racing equipped suspension, provides tremendous handling but feels comfortable on street.

All shocks are built with manufacturing tolerances that make damping forces deviate from the design target. Despite using good designs and precision components, the best commercial shock manufactures accept finished product tolerances that are typically +/-15%. That means that by luck of the draw two new, "identical", tested-good shocks picked from the shelf could vary in damping forces by up to 30%. Cheap shocks can be much worse! Imagine the quirky, uneven handling caused by left and right shocks that vary by 30%. This can cause an uneasy feeling of not being planted, a hard to quantify sensation that the car just isn't "right" despite seemingly having all the best parts and setup. The car doesn't inspire driver confidence, and it doesn't go fast. Worse yet is the difficulty of diagnosing these types of problems. Without access to a computershock dyno, the suspension tuner is left groping in the dark. Any serious suspension tuner absolutely must have a computer shock dyno plot for all shocks. This simply cannot be over-emphasized. It doesn't matter if your shocks are brand new, or freshly custom valved, or come from the most reputable manufacturer, or the best-known shop - you MUST have a computer shock dyno plots for your actual shocks (not a sample from a similarly configured shock). Without the dyno plot, you simply have no idea of what your shocks are doing, what irregularities they may contain or conceal. Testing - Every single Von shock is tested on our computer shock dyno. The dyno plot is delivered along with the shock. We keep the dyno plot in our database to support you going forward. This dyno plot is used as a baseline of comparison should we ever test your shocks to analyze wear, damage, or help you diagnose handling quirks. The dyno plot also let's us Pair-Match your shocks. Pair-Matched - Von shocks are built in batches, and every single shock
