This Article discusses two accessories geared towards those who regularly track their Caymans. Jack Box NOTE: Porsche officially recommends jacking up the Cayman only at the specified lift points on the chassis; refer to Gator Bite's Tip of the Week: Lifting the Cayman Porsche's recommendation or warning notwithstanding, many of us who track our cars desire an easier way to jack up the car for swapping tires, servicing brakes, etc. Individuals and teams that race Caymans have...

In Part 1, I covered some of the basic functions that can be performed using the Enthusiast version of the Durametric cable. In this tutorial, I will discuss some of the more advanced uses of the cable, including some Coding functions for those who purchase or borrow the Professional cable. NOTE: Some some of these functions, particularly Activations and Coding could result in damage to your vehicle, as well as disabling some of the normal safety functions of your car. You undertake these...

INTRODUCTION Durametric is a small company which produces a Porsche diagnostic tool for use by independent service shops or individual enthusiasts, and is as close as one can come to owning the equivalent of the PIWIS system that dealer service departments use, for thousands of dollars less. Unfortunately, Durametric provides very little in the way of documentation or tutorials in the use of their tool, which is part of the reason I have decided to write this primer. Some of the...

Schnell Short Shifter Installation (Shown on 2006 Cayman S with 6-speed, Bose system, no Nav or PASM) Special mention – I used this very helpful and very thorough DIY installation instructions as a starting point http://billswebspace.com/Porsche987ShortShiftDIY All instructions for a short shifter kit, on web sites or from the manufacturer were for the Boxster or Caymans with a Nav system. As I proceeded with the install, there were differences in my cars actual parts and those shown...

A third radiator provides extra cooling margin for those of us operating in warmer climates. This thread show a few photos of a third radiator installation into a 2007 Cayman 2.7L. YMMV. I purchased the third radiator kit from Suncoast. I was pleasantly surprised to find out the car was set up to accommodate the third radiator installation. Here is the kit:

While installing my Fire Extinguisher mount, I found that the procedure needed on my power seats is somewhat different than that needed for mechanical seats. I thought it would be a good idea to highlight and share the differences. NOTICE: This guide is ONLY for the driver's side power seat removal. Passenger seat removal & replacement requires recalibrating the Auto Weight Sensor. I installed the Rennline mount but the specifics on installing this mount will not be discussed since it...

I recently installed an accusump on my ’06 Cayman S and I thought it might be helpful to post some info about it. This is not intended to be a step by step how-to, but more of an overview of what I did to help folks understand what is required for the install. Also, please note that I am NOT an expert at accusump installation. This is the only one I have ever installed, and while I tried to carefully follow instructions, I may have made some mistakes. However, I have done a few track days with...

I installed the OEM fire extinguisher bracket in my 2007 Cayman recently. Here are the parts involved . Here is item 9, the bracket You will also have to buy some metric hardware: items 14 & 15 require a total of four M5-.80 X 16 bolts, lock washers and nuts; items 9, 10, 11 & 12 require three socket head M6-1.00 X 20 bolts and lockwashers. To start this caper you need to disconnect the battery, cover the sill plate with a towel and remove the driver's seat. Once the seat is out the three seat...

This article describes how to replace the Cayman/Boxster stock oil pressure alarm switch with the dual purpose oil pressure alarm switch and oil pressure gauge transducer used in the Porsche 996 cars. The oil pressure transducer output can then be connected to a standard VDO oil pressure gauge or used to monitor oil pressure via a track data acquisition system (such as the Traqmate) or trigger an alarm using an external circuit to detect the desired alarm pressure level. Many Cayman owners...
