The Only Thing Wrong with My Porsche 911 996 Turbo S - 6 Month Review | Raj's Garage

[@tx996tt]

19" wheels on a 996T is an acquired taste. I swapped Champion Motorsports 19" 3 piece (same look/ fitment as the BBS) to 18" OZ Alleggerita in GT2 size/ offset (18X12 & 8.5s) running 315/30 245/35s. Car looks very strong with the set-up plus retains factory gearing. I am running RWD conversion so no issues matching front / rear diameters with the AWD system

[@AM-eu1yq]

Owned a turbo S for 13+ years..and still enjoy i. Love these BBS’s. 🔥

[@rajsangha911]

Absolutely amazing cars 👍🏽

[@seeingthelight3608]

Those BBS suit the car really well. Gives it a much fresher look.

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you 👊🏻

[@davidnimmo5115]

Your Turbo S now looks stunning with the new BBS alloy wheels it just a cool car 🤩

[@rajsangha911]

I love it!

[@longjohnwilber]

Glad to see the back of those wheels!

[@rajsangha911]

My sentiments exactly

[@SeamusMcFitz-jz9if]

Nice! Look into new engine mounts - I have RSS. Will change the way the car drives, more direct. I also have a CAE ultra shifter and cables - fully recommend! Thanks for the upload. 19" rims are perfect for this body.

[@rajsangha911]

Appreciate the feedback 🙌🏼

[@steverogers7473]

Seconded, solid engine mounts improve the interaction with the car a lot. Throttle response and raw sound / feeling of the engine through the car...😎

[@thomasbannon3786]

Very nice, missing my 2004 C4S even more now. Mods so important and didn’t change the character only improved on it. Lucky man.

[@rajsangha911]

Cheers and thanks for watching 🙌🏼

[@aaa_batteries]

Raj never shies away from some BBS's 😂😂 They look mint tho 🧼 Car looks spot on with the new wheels and suspension!

[@rajsangha911]

Thanks buddy! I'm loving the new look!

[@996Revival]

The car looks great! I like the stock techno sport wheels equally as well. Nice to hear you enjoy the car!

[@rajsangha911]

Thanks! 👍

[@jonathaneinsig2574]

Personally, I like the blue BBS caps, and I think that color would give the car a more subtle contrast pop Color means something different to everyone, but I do love the wheels and the stance!

[@rajsangha911]

Thanks for watching and appreciate the comments 👍🏽

[@snolvr100]

LM's make any car look mega, especially 911 turbos. Well done!

[@Birmingham_racing]

They look good and suit the car but I love how the stock wheels look so wouldn't change them

[@rajsangha911]

No problem, I’m not a fan of the originals 🤣

[@duck748r]

Looks great! You should get some BBS for the E36 M3 as well.

[@rajsangha911]

Maybe some BBS for my Guards Red 964 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@MrJoeprior1982]

i've had a set of them BBS Lm's. One of my favorite wheels. They look awesome !

[@rajsangha911]

I agree! Thanks for watching 🙌🏽

[@joshswan06]

Sorry to say, but I like the original wheels better still the car is looking good

[@rajsangha911]

No problem 👍🏽

[@PorscheRoseSylveon]

BBS wheels are for sure an acquired taste. Pretty car!

[@harjitchohan]

Looks good on the BBS wheels. Good Luck keeping them clean😃

[@rajsangha911]

Good think our detailer swings by every week 🙌🏽

[@niche1740]

Looks great on the LMs. But may I suggest using guide pins when removing and installing wheels on Porsche with Ceramic Rotors. As you know, they are extremely expensive and if a wheel drops down on the rotor, it’s all bad. I’ve seen pictures of them completely shattered just from the wheel barrel impacting while removing from the car.

[@sidewayssam]

I was thinking the exact same, they are not exactly light wheels either, so easily done

[@rajsangha911]

Thanks for the advice and will definitly look into that for the future 👍🏽

[@n.a1827]

I owned a 996 turbo s in 2006 , an awesome car spits flames 🔥 👌

[@MrJearley6]

Thank you for this video. This is nice. I like the rims everything about this car. You’re subscriber from Los Angeles, California.

[@rajsangha911]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Nature_Ransacked]

Looks amazing!!! Well done

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you so much 😀

[@aggie3344]

Wheels look Awsome 😊

[@rajsangha911]

Glad you like them!

[@jamhot8243]

Mate… cars lookin awesome! Wheels look superb!

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you 👍

[@RSZ-R34]

looks perfect 👌 great taste raj 👍

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you so much 👍

[@niche1740]

So you ended up with 19/8.5 et43 and 19/11 et35?? (Assuming both wheels were et50 to start with) What size are the tires if you don’t mind? Thanks for the awesome content as always 👍

[@Frankthetank415]

Pretty sure I saw this car in my gym car park this morning. Am toying with 996 turbo and seeing yours might have pushed me over the line 😂

[@rajsangha911]

That would have been me - happy to have a chat about ownership anytime 😊!

[@StrangelyDagerous]

Looks perfect Raj. Absolutely beautiful but real presence.

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you 👊🏻

[@alistairuysal1858]

That looks great. Great stance. Fitment is 👌

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you 👍

[@SF_Native]

I wish I had picked up a 996 Turbo when they were cheap. So much bang for the buck. Sadly those days are over.

[@rajsangha911]

Yes, a lot of car for the money. Prices do seem to have stabilised though 👍🏽

[@liam.1931]

Those bbs look lovely. You have great taste in cars. Your 993 and 964 are beautiful too.

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you kindly 🙌🏼

[@stevey-nwas1230]

New look looks 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

[@rajsangha911]

Cheers Steve 🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@markblake4425]

Spot on 👍

[@tonyreddall3565]

Love the wheels, good choice.

[@PorscheRoseSylveon]

BBS is tasteful! Pretty car!

[@rajsangha911]

Thank you 🙌🏽

[@alanwayte432]

Sorry the wheels look wrong, I have a 996 Turbo S nickname The Pelican ..due to its big bills

[@JordSwain-sh6py]

🔥🔥🔥 looking mint bro

[@rajsangha911]

Appreciate it 👊🏻

[@ektrolleyboy]

You need yellow seat belts fitting to that car!

[@luqmanareington]

Those LM's👌 A timeless wheel for a timeless designed car.. Well in my opinion atleast🙂

[@rajsangha911]

Thanks for watching 🙌🏼

[@gregoryfranks7347]

now this sano turbo looks weapons grade!!!!. I of course would go nuts on power but a daily needs be no faster or probably not as fast as this can be stock. can be sold bold as to suggest 1 more thing which I think would change the attitude so drastically you be stunned. my brother hates me I'm trying to get him to buy RUF turbo r bumpers and wheels its makes him goes ape shit its so funny... sorry back to my fav 911. GT2 exhaust those huge round 3,5" I think the opposite mirror each other at like 35-40 degrees. I seen them angled to far which can get that carbon shot shit or even melt some hoses or the vents on that rear bumper cover. just a suggestion but I know how killer it looks now that would the pinch of evil to really make this such a cool yet nasty and dead sexy it wouldn't remain your daily I wouldn't think. I expect nothing but the most tasteful wicked cars from you so I'm not even a little surprised. erect yes but you always build sano rigs!! truly a serious piece of kit!!!!! cheers

[@jacobbarrena818]

Original rims looked perfect...

[@sidewayssam]

how did you get on with clearance on the front alloys? I have 18 inch twist on mine, all good, but close to the arch liners, I have a set of 20inch ,but they catch, as they have a slightly larger rolling radius. Though it does look cool. I just cannot steer!lol... I am looking for a set of bbs e88's. I get 28-30 on mine, have hybrids and a do88 intercoolers. 580bhp, manual, but it is a money pit. Make sure you always buy a loved one. As they get expensive.

[@rajsangha911]

20's would definitely catch, especially if you've upgraded the suspension and lowered the car. No issues or rubbing with my wheel and suspension setup 👊🏻

[@FRENETIC11]

Really great look.

[@misterdroneboy8999]

New wheels at biblical

[@Matador_matty]

Looks amazing

[@rajsangha911]

🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@philtaylor5053]

Raj, when you updated to Kenwood did you have any Map issues? I've just upgraded to the DMX8021DABS and Google Maps throws my position on my iphone way off once the Porsche ignition is turned on, any ideas? Great video again, thanks.

[@rajsangha911]

Check your GPS antenna for the DMX8021DABS is connected and also ensure it is not being hidden or obstructed by any metal work.

[@steverogers7473]

My daughter thinks the BBS LM's are vile. I am not so sure either. (She also said they are "barbaric"! 🤣) I think I prefer the turbo twist wheels, but then I am biased as I have a similar Porsche 996.... 😉

[@rajsangha911]

That's OK - I hate the Sport Techno wheels and prefer the Turbo Twists tbf 👊🏻

[@steverogers7473]

@@rajsangha911 Sport Techno are gross - yes! 👍

[@PixelVogue]

3 piece turbo twists would have looked great, but LMs always look 100%

[@rajsangha911]

Oh yes, 3 piece turbo twists would be epic … definitely food for thought 👍🏽

[@imi4449]

10/10

[@cjjohnson6085]

Looks 👌🏼

[@fozpringle1]

I always thought the S in the turbo S only started in the later 997

[@rajsangha911]

The "S" variant was available on the last run out of the 996 Turbo (Dec 2004 to 2005)

[@QuantumBlu9x]

Nice🎉

[@Birmingham_racing]

6 months? Yeah that went by quick

[@rajsangha911]

Yes, very quick !!

[@francisflorez5581]

If you wash your car yourself you will kick yourself in the rear for getting rid of the sport technos. Hollow spoke and very very easy to clean especially with the ceramics.

[@LovelyMarineShark-rc7xj]

Wheels look awful put oem ones back on it looks stupid

[@rajsangha911]

Well, you're entitled to your opinion!

[@kona328WH]

It looks absolutely awesome. Sitting sweet. Now stop being a cheapskate and get some fresh and matching rubber on those wheels haha

[@rajsangha911]

Haha... you noticed 😂 New tyres already ordered 👊🏻

[@JoseGonzalez-t8q]

mate get RID of those PZeros - absolutely horrendous tire. Everything else is mint but those tires are not IT

[@desmondmccarthy6408]

OEM is better. Naff.

[@davidleigh7698]

Ceramic brakes for a daily user! Some people just love wasting money.
