    A Haynes manual? FFS, I don’t want to ruin the thing [emoji12]

    I bought a full work shop manual from Porsche, spent a considerable amount of time reading it, making notes, highlighting torque settings for the various bolts etc. there is also a huge wealth of “how to” guides on the various Porsche forums, including an incredibly detailed write up that I have been mostly following [emoji3]

    I’ve wanted to do something like this for a while. One of the reasons I bought a 928 was that it seemed easy to work on and I was encouraged by the amount of resources available to help play home mechanic

    I downloaded this guide, about 150 pages and had it printed for easier reference. It’s been loads of fun so far [emoji3]

    Maybe when you sell it, the new owner will remove that cloth interior and replace with leather.
    Blue Scuro is quite rare apparently

    Me. It’s become a bit of an obsession. I go to bed thinking about torque values and wake up thinking about hose sizes [emoji6]

    You might end up as a useful doctor :)

    You can't bury this mistake if you make one :D

    I found working on the GT4 very therapeutic

    Yes, it’s been very satisfying to do. If I break something, who cares. I do stuff during the day that is more stressful with potential catastrophic consequences [emoji3]
