I'll never buy a 996
Can't believe people do
The standard Internet response...
Yes they have issues like many of premium brands, m power big ends for example, but they also have solutions as covered in this video.
By a car thats had a replacement engine, or maybe just stick to a normal car. Wheres the fun in that though

Just pay up and buy a 991 by the time you mess around with another replacement £10,000 to £15,000 chololate engine you'll wished you'd never bought a 996 nightmare
But hey this is the most stupid time in human history
Just look at all the stupidity
Hi the1beard. I’m going to “pin” your comment as I’d be interested to see how many people agree/disagree with your views. Please comment below and let us know!

I question whether this is the right channel to be watching then? I’d imagine there’s plenty of Toyota and Lexus content out there for you.
My wife and I are both very attracted to the idea of a 911.
Where we part is power and colour.
She thinks even the base Carrera is adequate and that only under spoken colours will do.
I think that not only is more power an essential element but I’m open to lary paint. She doesn’t like the idea that quite quickly, everyone in our neighbourhood would know who owns that Speed Yellow 911!
We’re both similarly sensitive to spec and to interior colours, finishes and wear of these. We’re both light on our interiors. Cars we’ve had for over a decade still look very similar to how they were when we bought the car.
I’d choose a Turbo at the drop of a hat, recognising that I definitely don’t need the performance but that the pleasure of owning one would be terrific.
Speed Yellow 996/997 Turbo? Black leather interior plus upgrades? Yes please.
Not sure about the Porsche badge on the back……….
I had FGP fit the Milltek Cup to my 996 C4, along with Top Gear headers and can confirm the great sound. These guys arguably becoming one of the leading authorities on 996’s, given the numbers they see through the shop.
Thank you Luke. Yet another good informative video.
We can see the second building is coming along nicely. Thank you for taking us on this journey.
Love them both. You guys do a great job. I would buy from you with unquestionable confidence.
I really enjoy your videos. Nice work.
Great job.
Really enjoy your show.
Perhaps no tank top for final walk around.
Plus I think Luke needs to invest in a belt for his jeans 😀
C2 brakes on a C4S how did that garage manage to mess up that bad
Your client has very good taste, those mods are subtle but make a big difference, a lovely car
Another great and interesting video. 👍
Great content as always 👍
Turbo Twist wheels look great!
Both my dream model
Fabulous job and that sound 😎🔥
Attic Silver 2004 911 996 X51 package 3.6 litre with 55,335 miles and 6 speed manual transmission. Would rather drive and listen to it than the 2015 911 C2S 3.8 liter PDK. Both are fantastic in their own right but that 996 has unique, beautiful eyes, a fabulous curved wide body and she shows her strong passion on the roads.
Fantastic
Heavy duty racing clutch!
My dream 911
Great video. Sound quite poor, please consider a new microphone (especially outside).
Is there anybody in America who does what you do? If you were here, who would you want working on your 996?
Okay, mate!
Nice feeling knob - oh er mrs
Good video can you tell me where you got that Porsche badge from A link would be good 👍
What kind of sidebrackets are those on the buckets? Looks like the seats are mountet low.
Love the yellow 996’s.
Have you guys driven one of these with the front drive shaft removed?
I considered looking for a C4S that had the front diff' removed as per C2 spec but couldn't find one for sale. Has been done though. I ended up going with a C2 in the end though.
Where do you guys get the color belts from?
*@Friends Green Porsche - Give me a shout if ever you need a pair of X51 inlet manifolds as I have a pair here.*
Hi do you still have the x51 inlet manifolds ?
Change the air box, plenum, and intake for HP.
Chrome badge for trunk would look fantastic!
How much is the PCCM upgrade?
Not sure these exhaust mods would meet the specs in California.
How much does all that work cost. Thanks
Fabulous …… Except for that bloody awful badge !!
Does an X51 engine add any value or is it just a nice spec to have on your car?
Adds quite alot more value , if it was a factory fitted optional extra , imo prob what it cost at time of build ,so I'd imagine around 5-6k on top of a standard c4s
