There's also a limited combination of keys for S13 and S14. They also cross both generations of that specific vehicle.

how was your experience with urban garage? just curious. i always see nice stuff there but the advertised prices always seem to be on the high side, but that might just reflect the condition of their inventory compared to others.

My experience was very good! Mark (salesman) was great throughout the process and it was a comfortable and fun experience. I got a good deal on the car (friend also bought a car their recently) and they did a service on my boxster free of charge. Their service department also seems very good and knowledgeable. I was chatting with Tony (service) for a while and got a good vibe from their shop, although they are quite expensive (100~/hr)

^^^That's great to hear. Duncan, the owner, is a really cool guy. Loves cars, tracks an old BMW for fun. Very much a boutique dealer with some unique product. He's a pretty picky guy so I'll bet that transfers to the vehicles he buys to resell.

$100/hr is too much for a shop? i thought that was lower than dealer rates, or am i mistaken?

996 is OK - gear box has to come out and go to Colorado for a partial rebuild might put in an LSD while it's apart depending on the extent of the repairs required. Lots of other little things. Goes under the knife in 3 weeks. Drove it today - gearbox can't get any worse apparently. Picture from today - needs a wash after sitting for 2 weeks.



My M3 didn't come with vaders - it's a lux car with sport seats in rare magma (baby poo) brown. Slicktop too - pretty unique combo.

Because you get to see her without being reminded of all her bullshit you had to put up with.

Not done the car yet but got her to look and drive decent for the spring meet!

been a full year since I took her off the road and now she's just about done! first start up of the new motor didn't turn out so well, so frustrated I almost gave up! Actually got her running and dyno'd 2 days before the meet. Headache is over and now it's just the final touches!

Ran into a few small mishaps on the dyno. Managed to squeeze out 363 whp / 280 ft/lbs (mustang numbers) before it started losing traction. Need to make a few changes and I'll be back for a final tune!

Photo stolen from Vancouver Fitted website! Check out the Spring Meet coverage and all their other cool stuff!
