Coolant line Failures in 996, 997- see article in Excellence

Postby Aavitt on Fri Dec 17, 2010 2:23 pm

An FYI for all GT2 and GT3 racers. The February 2011 Issue of Excellence Magazine has an article on page 125 in their Tech Forum regarding coolant line failures. It has been a frustrating realization for us that the two failures we experienced are not isolated incidents. They are much more common and widespread than Porsche is willing to say. Please read the article. It's about time this problem has come to the forefront.

Yes, Mark knows how to build them that's for sure. Most dependable track car ever. You know it is "For Sale." It is tough to let that car go, but I love the HP and the response of the 04 GT3, and it is hard to go back to the the 78 now. Hopefully we can correct the coolant issues with the GT3.
