[@ronaldthomas1300]

Another EXCELLENT video. Can't wait till next Show!

[@911Percent]

Thank you so much Ronald!! :)

[@rl95719]

Wow the clear corner lights make a huge difference! Good call

[@911Percent]

Thanks for watching! Yeah they were a must

[@713vinh]

Great video, looking forward to the oil change footage. :)

[@911Percent]

Thanks, stay tuned!

[@jonathanl2748]

Love these vids! They make me smile and laugh. These cars are works of art and you are good at illustrating that. Good on you, brother!

[@911Percent]

AWESOME Jonathan, I'm so happy you dig these vids! Thank you so much for tuning in! Take care!

[@tjm3roundrock]

Hi Jakob. Great to see another well made video. I’m loving the new 4s - power and poise; and really admire the 993 4s - classic and cool. Keeping a balance btwn family, fun, and work is important so a quality vid is way more important than a weekly vid. Glad to see your summer is fun. Take care and cheers from Round Rock.

[@911Percent]

Thanks for tuning in! Yes, I had to step back a little to balance all those things out! The new car is a blast, I'm having a great time with it.

[@loveraindown]

Great plate mount. Great video as usual. Worth the wait. 👍🏾

[@911Percent]

Thanks for tuning in man! Cheers!

[@shirokazama]

Dude cool stuff! I just put on your videos to chill and relax after a full day of work. Keep it up and enjoy these machines!

[@911Percent]

That's awesome to read man, thank you so much! I'm happy you're enjoying the vids! :)

[@rebldriver9306]

Check out US Mill Works. I love their brackets. Goes into the tow hook

[@rebldriver9306]

In California we have the same rule with front license plates

[@911Percent]

I've heard great things about the US Mill Works! The only reason I didn't go with it is I do not like the look of the front end with a tow-hook mounted plate - it breaks the symmetry

[@charlesdobson1720]

Jakob, it's good to see another video - I missed them!! I loved the coverage of the Cup Series - thanks!

[@911Percent]

Thank you Charles! I'm having so much fun around the Cup Challenge - what an exciting series

[@jameseli5782]

That plate mount is dope - Thanks for the tip on that. If you HAVE to run a front plate, that the best way to do it. LOL on the cup holder.

[@911Percent]

Yeah, sucks that we have to run one! Cheers!

[@frankforbes8534]

Your editing in the "do it yourself" break change was awesome. From the jack hammering effect when you were tapping the bolt to the soundtrack with the ambient internet talk going on in the background. If you're not in film you have a second career waiting dude.

[@911Percent]

I really appreciate the comment Frank!! I am in a visual and creative field, but not film. That's so nice of you to say man, cheers! I'm happy making these 911% videos on the side, it's a fantastic way to keep my pencils sharp :) Thanks again! Take care

[@wernerdanler2742]

I learned a new automotive technical term. BFH. Lol. Good thing I don't have one. I get frustrated easily with my car nowdays and I might use it inappropriately. I worked on my cars since I was a kid and liked doing it but now that I'm 70 I really don't want to anymore but having a working car beats taking the bus.

[@flat6enthusiast619]

The kage bunshin no jutsu was sweet :D

[@jonathanferdman7609]

Love the videos!

[@911Percent]

Thank you Jonathan!!! :)

[@sbmerc044]

Those cup holders are great for bottles, coffee can spill especially on bad roads. You really need to plug the opening with the plastic stay. Could’ve gone with a US millworks tow hook mount. That’s what I did after a no front plate ticket.

[@911Percent]

Thanks for watching. I don't drink coffee in the car often so it's all good - also with PDK, I usually just hold the cup and crawl in traffic in auto. I wasn't interested in towhook mounts - I like the plate to be symmetrical on the front. I've heard great things about the US Millworks one. Cheers

[@markflanders5299]

swap out the light bulbs in the clear mark as well, they are clear in the orange markers, and orange in the clear markers

[@911Percent]

Good idea, but that would make them illegal here...we need amber lights for indicators in the front and side of the vehicle... Cheers!

[@markflanders5299]

gotcha...... just to let you know, my 997.2 is almost identical to yours..and the side marker was my first mod....I just installed Zunsports grille..

[@geoffreygordon5892]

Another great video! So happy to see you getting into and enjoying the new car. We’ll have to meet up sometime to chat cars etc. Trying to find the time for some drives and some track days with PCO maybe. Thank you for continuing to make these great pieces.

[@911Percent]

Thanks for watching Geoffrey. Yeah, the car is really amazing - I'm embarrassed to say the 993 is collecting dust at the moment. :) Yes, definitely should meet up and chat cars. Talk to you soon

[@neill9614]

Hi Jakob, nice vid again! I am enjoying watching you ownership journey with your 997. I have just done a small mod of replacing the rear muffler with a set of bypass pipes on the PSE and loving the new sound, nothing anti-social just a nicer sound :) Have a great summer of driving!

[@911Percent]

Hi Neil, thanks for watching! Awesome! I can't wait to do the sharkwerks xpipe and a set of Fisters on mine. I don't have PSE, I'm so ready for some extra crackles and pops :) Happy motoring!

[@eddiegray793]

Love my PDK on my boxster s 2009

[@911Percent]

Yeah, it's a great transmission! Glad to hear you're enjoying it!

[@JimZRyd]

Hey there you are! Been missing your vids! This one was great as always! Keep them coming! Would really like to hear your back to back comparison between an air cooled C4 and a water cooled C4. Likes vs dislikes. Thanks!

[@911Percent]

Ha, thanks for sticking around!! I'm working on a comparison video with the cars so stay tuned!

[@K1dPhresh1]

So jelly of the GT3 cup cars you get to hang out with! Curious why you didn’t go with a tow hook mount plate bracket. Are those not legal in Canada? You should be a certified Porsche brake mechanic now, as many brake jobs as you’ve done!! Open a part time Indy shop. Still waiting for the 993 vs 997 comparo. PDK vs MT.

[@911Percent]

Yeah the Cup car stuff is so fun. I do not like the look of tow hook mounted front plates :P. Ha, yeah, not sure about certified, but I've done my fair share of them haha. Comparison videos coming soon. Cheers

[@speedcanada1]

Hi Jakob, great videos - we bumped into each other briefly at the Destination Porsche event at Tremblant on Friday. I had been admiring your 993 in the corral earlier and just came across your channel today! I just watched both brake replacements segments and was curious - did you not have to deal with the damper plates behind the brake pads and the cylindrical plugs that fit into the caliper pistons? I did the fronts on my 2009 C2S last summer, and found that the plugs had seized in place - I would have had to fully remove and disassemble the caliper to change them, so I just pasted the pad backing and reused the dampers. I'll likely be doing the rears next summer... cheers and keep up the great content!

[@vxnewton]

Great channel! I was wondering how much time it takes you to prepare your KZbin Videos? What kind of camera do you use and what program do you use to edit the videos (with the text etc.)? Thank you!

[@911Percent]

Thanks for tuning in. To answer your questions: depends on the video but all in all it takes a long time - hats off to daily vloggers; i don't know how they do it... I use a mix of DSLR, a few gopros and an OSMO. I use Adobe Premier CC to edit my videos. Hope this helps!

[@vxnewton]

Awesome! Thanks for this info. What is OSMO though? If I may, I would only have one suggestion for improvement: next time you go to Starbucks, bring your own mug, such as this super awesome Porsche mug that I am using (shop4.porsche.com/germany/lifestyle/home/wap0500640h/porsche-thermobecher-edelstahl.pdds) -> this will help to reduce waste and nature will be happy :)

[@911Percent]

You are right! I usually bring my own coffee from home anyway! But yeah, good call!! Thank you for spreading a positive (and important) message like that! Cheers! I use an OSMO Plus, I hope that helps!

[@ftlaud911]

Great video as always. Been missing them. Why no tow hook plate mount?

[@911Percent]

Thank you!! To be honest, I don't like how the tow hook mounted plates disrupt the symmetry in the front :)

[@mrjsprenger1285]

Jakob, nice video! I’ve been wondering when the next one was coming.. where do you get your parts from? I’m sick of import duty charges etc from the US. Thanks!

[@911Percent]

Hi, thanks for tuning in. I buy parts usually from local Porsche dealers (shop the USA prices, I found Pcar dealers pretty competitive), Germanparts.ca (use code 911C4S for 10% off) and sometimes I bite the bullet and order from Pelicanparts.

[@matthewrobertson9986]

Great video. What brand of pads & rotors did you use? Need to do the brakes on my 997.1 S, GermanParts.ca has a few options so looking for some recommendations.

[@911Percent]

Thanks for watching Matt. I bought Brembo rotors and Genuine Porsche pads. I bought the brembo rotors from GermanParts.ca - (use coupon code "911C4S" for a discount next time). No complaints what so ever after 1K kms on the components.

[@joguilbert3646]

Front plate sucks so much! 😜 #Montreal

[@911Percent]

Ha, truth!!

[@richierichBTC]

love the videos, love the abc internet clip :-) #buybitcoin

[@911Percent]

Such a good tune. :)
