Check out my new website, I have changed the layout a little and added some additional info like an animation of the reverse operation.

A couple products have been added, and more are coming as I get them added.

Thanks for looking!

Nice improvements.

Glad to see new products added.

I do have a question for you concerning one of your items.

It's listed as:

#JWST-CCC-SMK Replacement Electrical Smoke price: 5.00

"Refills components that have been zapped! - Low odor - Change your electronic smoke once a year."

Will I be gigged in concours for this non oem item? And will this be available in a larger quantity size at some later date?

Just make sure your blinker fluid is OEM.

I know this might not be the bast place to ask, but...

James, does your 914 fuse box have any room for expansion. And if it does not, do you make one that does? I know the existing harness does not have that much room for add on, but my wiring harness is going to be totally rebuilt, with some extra wire run for other components.

Thanks for the question, Zach. My first version had 3 extra fuses, but the fuse boxes I was using continued to go up in price and get harder to purchase. As a result, I redesigned it, made it easier to install, and lowered the price. Unfortunately there are only the stock 12 fuses now.

I think your concours concerns should be brought up in the appropriate forum.

I will say that a tuning of the electrical system by Jeff Bowlsby using TimT's scope on a real LE Grasshopper would yield a system that could not be decerned from original except for the coating of Pledge.

30lb cylinders will be available, but there is a government air quality surcharge.

Gents, I haven't got a clue what you guys are talking about. What is this "electrical smoke" product and "blinker fluid". Is this a joke?

You can't joke about products like that! Also beware of ads about muffler bearings and piston return springs!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

You were wise to suspect jokiing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Duh...Important - These are just display containers, the products advertised are not included and do not really exist!

Guess I should have read the entire page.

James West is one of those engineers that are very much like the ones that designed the 914.


You know the ones I'm talking about. The ones with a sense of humor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

James may indeed be an engineer with a sense of humor but the Rennshift is no joke...

My car came off a year of jack stand duty yesterday and after some adjustments by Martin Baker of Northbay914 fame, we took it for a ride. The improvement is dramatic. Unbelievable to shift now... If you can afford this do get it. This is what Porsche should have done. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The shifter is indeed how it should have been, without doubt. I would like one in my everyday driver.

"You could say that again" for all of us hehe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Clayton (Twystd1) had one for sale at the R&G swapmeet for $375.
