Allan,

Could you order a set for me? And Ernie, Photos yes please so I know Where/How to put them.............

By the Way Terry Tommason was Awesome on the Track last Friday (Brands Hatch Indy Circuit) on a slightly damp day he was trying his new suspension set up (including MantisSport Lower Stress Bar) and was 'marmalising' everything out there including 3 full race team GT3RS at a Porsche Only Track day........

Porsche Post are doing a write up on the day out - Alan Armstrong (Used to rally Talbot Sunbeams internationally - do you know him?) The UK Cayman Register representative came along for a ride with Terry and me.

Also saw the love of my life.... a Yellow Carrera GT - now seen 3 in real life...

Karel,
Who is the Cayman Register person for the PCGB? I ask because last year it was some guy who owned a Boxster who wasn't very keen on the Cayman and when I reached out to him to offer assistance he rebuffed me - "why should I need assistance from you?" sort of thing. Any chance we can get a better connection going on if you know this person or if perhaps it is a new person?

Ken,

You or anyone can get hold of Alan Armstrong at cayman_s@btinternet.com or cayman@porscheclubgb.com

He owns one of the earliest delivered Cayman S in the UK, a real nice guy and a great driver. He is registered with the caymanclub, but is quite quiet on the website.

He was flabbergasted watching Terry Tommason's 'Red Dragon', keep 3 works team GT3 cars behind him, lap after lap after lap (even on the high power pit straight) on the Brands Hatch Track, and eat up all the other Porsche pretenders on the track in front of him.

I shocked Alan when he drove with me in the 'Yellow Peril', and afterwards he rode with Terry which blew his mind................ (Terry drives with a rare gusto, that as an old fart, I cannot!)

Part of the 'resistance', may have been that in the UK the PorscheClubGB is 'sponsored' by Porsche GB........... They have rules to follow, and they cannot print/comment on modifications etc, for 2 years following introduction of a new model................

That time is now up, and Terry and I have the most modified Caymans in the UK, which will probably give yours (what do you call her/him/it?) a run for your money........... So we can publicise what we have done, Alan will give us a write up in the Porsche Post.

However we only get a 2 year warranty, mine is up in July, Terry's around March.............

Porsche GB I understand, have a No Tolerance policy, and to be honest when the report is published in the Porsche Post, we are in difficulty, there is no chance to make any kind of a claim if anything goes wrong with our cars................

I love solid mounts in all my cars.

Any idea what the labor to install these would be like for a shop?

karel,
Thanks for the info and looking forward to whatever articles get published. I don't think Alan was the person in charge of Caymans when I first spoke to the PCGB folks. I'm happy to help him out in any way with Cayman items. Let's get some of those UK stories published here!

[quote=Kor;205009]I love solid mounts in all my cars.
Kor, are you talking about the tranny (only) solid mounts or engine as well?

I always thought that the solid engine mounts generated too much vibration
