Had to replace the alternator on my Beater Boxster.

Hanging out in Santa Maria..
I’m in the process of making a video and it’s a documentary based on the motorcycle life of a Pinoy motorcycle rider located in Santa Maria, CA. We took a break and ate some of Filipino food at a local food truck.
Flat.. ain’t this a bitch..
I put a lot of miles on my commuter mobile. Considering the amount of time I’m on the road I think I’ve been fairly lucky not getting too many flats. I’ve had my share on the motorcycle and cars the past 30 years so it’s really no big deal except for the hassle of getting a replacement.
I got a flat on highway 99 North right near the Lodi airport where the parachuters hangout.
Beater Boxster brakes…
One thing about the Porsche, it has so many sensors that monitors various vitals of the car. When I first got the car I had the “break wear” warning. I knew I had to get them done soon.
I had both of my front pads replaced with after market ceramic pads and had new rotors installed at the same time. Since the wheels were off the calipers were painted red with high temp caliper paint.
New toy Porsche Boxster 986…
Ever since I can remember I’ve always wanted a Porsche car. I guess when your a kid you when you think of racing cars and speed you automatically think of Porsche (or at least I did).
Earlier this morning I picked up my Porsche 986. It is far from being pristine but that’s okay I just call it my restoration project 🙂 Since it has a long way to go to fix up I’m going to call my Porsche “Beater Boxster”. The Boxster is the model name.
