Hi there! according to https://911virgin.com/engine-revs/ and other sources on a 996 GT3 - range 1 is 8200-8800 - range 2 is 8800+ so I hope I am wrong because that would be excellent. thanks !

Sorry, I am such a noob! 2004 996.2 GT3, now I got the details (I guess I overestimated my memory :-D); Range 1 approximately. 37000 ignitions Range 2 approximately 4200 ignitions @ 703 hours Car has now approx. 780 hours I checked with my PIWIS the cam. dev. and both are in norm at bank 1 - 0 degrees bank 2 - 3 degrees.

Hi all, I checked the video below and did the same steps, disconnected the intercooler hose to the cold side of the turbo, plugged one end and pressurized the other with a smoke tester. White smoke came out of both turbos, how is this possible? Any tips? Thanks! Richard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hr_INbQ9UJ4

Hi all, (youtube results linked below) Well here I am again with a quick diagnosis based on experience. (cap is new and expansion tank fairly new also) (no intermix present) I have noticed coolant disappearing, after which it was identified that some pipes were leaking and we proactively changed the water pump as well. Exterior leaks disappeared, however I have noticed that the coolant level keeps decreasing to MIN after longer (100km) drives. I keep refilling to the same effect. We checked radiators etc. and all seems to be fine. Pressure test as well. Mechanik stated it’s likely a cracked head. So I decided to buy the amazon head gasket kit to test. As for the results, I let the engine get to nearly operating temperature. I did some revving and there are both bubbles and apparent vacuum which I do not understand. In terms of the video. Cold (6 celsius, 42 fahrenheit) the beginning is just the end showing that there are no bubbles in the liquid whilst at near operating temp. Also for sanities sake I put the blue liquid on my hand and next to the exhaust to confirm that it works. Fluid only changes a bit in terms of color, please compare start to end. 6:55 1st rev 12:36 2nd rev reaches near operating temp. 17:10 3rd rev Is the head gasket blown? Why does the fluid keep going to the min mark after the refill? Thanks!

Hi all 🙂, So I recently purchased for a good price the 6 piston brake calipers P/N: 99635143230 and 99635143130, the 6 piston PCCB calipers. The rear brakes are clear as the bolt spacing will be the same. For the front the spacing is currently 130mm vs the needed 142mm which by the ways is too small of a difference to allow for spacers. So my question! What will I need to make the front work with P/N's? GT3 uprights? What else? Which rotors, thanks!

Hi all, Happy to have my first post on the forum, I have been stalking for some time :-). Two quick questions. 1.: Are the 6 piston brakes all the same ?? Or is there only a difference in color. 99635143231 i 99635143131 (PCCB) 99635143190 i 99635143290 (Red / steel) 2.: Any other options to increase the size of the brakes? Thanks! ****
