Looks very nice! Congrats on the purchase.
Peter,
The PCCB's fitted to the 997 are much better than earlier generation. However watch the wear rates on the rear pads. They wear out faster than the fronts (I know it doesn't make sense) and catches a lot of people out. Mk2 997 GT3 has improved cooling ducts fitted and these are retro fit option. Worth investing as cost of new pads and at worst new discs is best avoided.
Once you get used to the car and start to push the boundaries you'll find that the car will understeer. I had great fun sliding through the fast corners on the Brands Hatch GP circuit until I thought about the huge increase in wear rate of the tyres! Standard upgrade is to fit the 997 GT2 ant-roll bar. This was suggested by Andreus Preuninger (not sure of spelling..) GT3 project manager at Stuttgart.
