Default Another I'm back thread

. I'm back after driving a 996 for the last couple of years. I enjoyed the tour of the Black Forest but I appreciate the reliability and the common sense pricing of aftermarket parts for the G2. and JDM products in general.

The story:
I had given my GS300 to my daughter couple of years ago then I bought the Carrera. I got it the GS2 back after she got a 4runner. I thought I'd use it for a second car but wow when I drove it again I thought, what was I thinking? So I'm going through a the whole car, suspension, GTE swap then the blink. But I'm driving it everyday cuz I want to enjoy it. And if the car blows up, so what. I'm out a few thousand not 12-25K just for an engine.
