Carly works really well, but be warned.. it's subscription-based! After 1 year, you will get billed again, and it's tough to cancel.
It's a waste of money. Doesn't work without a subscription. They just keep renewing the subscription even when you've cancelled. I don't know why anyone promotes them. Check out their negative feedback
What a sell-out you are, advertising carly of all things. It's a disgraceful repeat-billing subscription where they take unauthorised payments. They offer a nasty cheap dongle and everything it does you can do for free with hundreds of free alternatives.
Did they give a free subscription to help scam others?
Shame on you. Unsubscribed.
I think the apex wheels suit it well, the only thing I think you should do is ditch the apex center caps and see if you could get some Porsche centers to replace them.
exactly
On the yellow one too. Needs matching center crest and shorter studs
Agreed with y'all!
@@matt13ross and do it with the 996 PLEASEEEE
@mattross the APEX Wheels are the right move. I love my anthracite colored APEX wheels on my 996tt. Black looks the best with chalk anthracite second and it hides brake dust very well.
The clock spring is not your steering angle sensor !!
I’ve just been through this on my 996tt after changing the steering column.
Look at the ‘telescopic’ section of your steering column, above the pedals. You’ll see a black metal square bracket that houses the steering angle sensor. Check that’s plugged in then use your durametric to reset the sensor position.
Hopefully that sorts you out, keep us posted !
What he said
agree, I finished my 997tt build last year and had the same problem. The steering angle sensor wasn't plugged in, after resetting in durametric I think I even had to drive it around for a while before the error code went away.
You sure? I thought that was the steering lock?
@@matt13ross maybe it’s different on a 997.
I just looked, I saw no such box on the 997.
Even without the tires on, those Apex wheels look good. Black is definitely way to go with your grey paint. Bronze and grey wouldn’t look as good IMO.
The black wheels fit niceley, add Porsche centercaps and it will look OEM-ish.
I’d go dark gray. Bronze is overdone and black is common.
Truck wheels on the Porsche.
A thought about the PSM: You've got aftermarket coilovers on the car, right? Since the stock setup is tied into the PSM system and it doesn't see them, that could be daisy chaining errors. If they are hooked into the system, there's a brake sensor and I believe an angle sensor (different from the clockspring) on the rack. I may be thinking of older Porsches, so check my homework on that one.
Checkout the steering column module and connections/wires. Also double check the clock spring connector and make sure the pins are ok and clean etc.
Not a fan of black wheels either - but the style/color/size looks great!
Matt, I would try to look at the schematics you have and see if the wheel sensor wire plugs in on the other end or take a look at your PCM pins. That car was raced and maybe had a Sparco and clipped a wire.
I don't believe it ever had a different wheel
@@matt13rossdo you have access to a schematic? I would start by checking the connector that feeds the clock spring. It should be an 8-12 pin connector under steering column trim
Absolutely put those black wheels on it. Looks really good!
Ps I actually love the black wheels- I normally hate black wheels but you’re right about chalk grey and black working. Bronze look great too
Of course the black. They wheel goes well together with the other black details and fits very well with the rest of the 997. Shape and color!
Wheels looks great in black! I absolutely love them!! Yes yes yes!
Can’t wait for another Porsche built.
1000x Yes to the Apex wheels on the 997! In Black for sure
Get some bronze powdercoat and those rims will be perfect.
They are a little small, but meaty tires look fantastic and will give good ride quality. Seems like a good package to me.
One vote for bronze! Yes meaty fitment was what I was thinking too.
Take my vote
Bronze!
Another vote for bronze. Black disappears too much
I’m with bronze for the wheels. While the black did look good I still say it is yesterday’s look and dates too easily. But it’s your car and go with what you like 😁
Brother i think the apex styled wheels suits the car, as you mentioned about the upcoming porsches..
But what i want to suggest is add some details of your own.. like black wheels with champagne color accent highlights would look sick..
The Apex wheels look fantastic. keep it for sure. Bronze or Black will both look amazing. That's definitely the wheel for that car though.
Those wheels look slick with the chalk grey!
Try to find wiring schematics for steering module/clock spring and measure the voltages to see if the wiring is actually working. If you couldn't find the voltage specs then I would remove the wiring and check the continuity of cables.
Those wheels are a definitive yes! Also the rest of the internet may say I’m an idiot but I love the interior of this car.
I love the interior too!
I say put the black ones. With the gray. You killing it
Apex wheels look great in black but they’d also look good in bronze so either way is a win
I think the Apex wheels are the right style and colour for the car but defo need Porsche centre caps only thing is I think 18s are a bit small for the 997 personally.
I have gold wheels on my chalk Macan but I’d definitely run the apex since you have them.
There is a reseller on rennlist for center caps and they’re very good for the $70.
The Apex wheels look fantastic as they are, no need to change anything imo
Pretty sure the steering angle switch is down the column further. As someone else stated. That style of wheel looks great, gotta be 19's though. And in my opinion, Bronze will compliment the interior better. Loving this so far!
Have you had the Alignment done , if it’s out it can all sorts fault codes , especially steering angle and brake issues. There was probably nothing wrong with you clock spring , undo steering column joint and set the clock spring angle through the computer. Make sure wheels are straight, you slick tyres can give abs faults which is also linked to clock spring and traction control fault codes, good luck Matt
The issue is, the computer is seeing zero input from the steering angle sensor, that's the issue.
@@matt13ross Matt I had a similar issue when I rebuilt a van , when I put the steering rack in the steering column had been turned thus putting the angle sensor out of scope. I use autel , and when I read the steering angle info it showed the value in red, with front wheels straight I had to disconnect the joint and turn the steering wheel to bring the value down to as close as possible to 0 , reconnected joint and cleared fault codes . I also did a steering angle relearn. The slick tyres or odd size tyres cause issue as the sensors think wheels are turning different speeds . If it was a track car the clock spring, abs and the like could have been mapped out of the computer/ ecu so not to cause issues. Good luck . Bronze wheels, !!!!
Looks good as is in my opinion, the black ones i mean, matte on the front, gloss inside
As far as stock wheels go those split 5’s ain’t just horrible
I think the stock wheels look ok, but DAMN do those Apex wheels look good! I say you leave the Apex wheels just the way they are and slap some sticky rubber on them and roll with those.
Man that durametric is helpful. I always had the impression 997s were a big jump in tech and had more electronics. Made me a little wary of getting one.
It's a great tool!
The apex wheels as they are in satin black
Look perfect with the color and all the touches
That's the move
Those black wheels u put on first are money... wouldn't change a thing...
The original wheels aren't terrible but the Apex as is would be my choice. I like my Carly for BMW for my E92, I'm not tuned, I like the coding options and I don't use their mechanic option.
number of ignitions in range 3 and beyond are not good... especially high values. This engine has been abused! If I remember correctly this are rpm for high ranges:
Range 3: 7700-7900
Range 4: 7900-8400
Range 5: 8400-9500
Range 6: 9500-11000
I was thinking the exact same thing when Durametric came up! The again it was a track car so maybe not too surprising. Still, that engine lived a hard life.
Honestly not concerned guys, it runs great! It was a track car and was CHEAP! This isn't a 20K miles OEM garage kept never driven hard car. It's a car that was DRIVEN and will be DRIVEN.
For a track car, the rev limit might have been increased when tuning, which would mean you would hit these ranges more often...
@@matt13ross Yes. Here in Italy 997 turbo starts from 85k, so yes a real bargain! This cars are very robust, mine was only an observation. You must drive this car! I hate seen this cars parked in a garage and left there.
P.S. thanks for all this content about this cars. You're doing a great job, keep going!
Thanks so much!
BRONZE or GOLD wheels with a custom euro plate out front "SilverNGold"😊
halfway between black and bronze. a dark / charcoal bronze.
Matt 2 things to look at first the yellow plug on the clock spring the center tab needs to be pushed in when being clipped in if you just push the plug in it clips but not all the way in second you must get a wheel alignment before doing the reset calibration even if if drives straight it will still need an alignment then calibration hope this helps cheers from down under
I'll double check but all seems plugged in
@@matt13ross then i suggest wheel alignment then reset calibration and see how you go matt good luck cheers glenn
Black wheels, but Porsche center caps please! Not for nothin, the stock wheels didnt look half bad. Black is way to go though.👍
those apexs are the way to go for sure! crazy how differently they present on the 997
As far as steering sensor, the custom tune probably just turned off any steering assist from computer. You either need a better tune/ tuner, or find and reload a factory tune.
Black rims for sure! Done. 👌
Definitely like the design of the black wheels better. I’d money is not an issue look at Forgeline and HRE also. One more that I can’t remember, I’ll get back to you. 🤔
Money is an issue lol
Black looks good but bronze would look sick on that car. Or a nice bright silver. Either way the style of the wheel is a winner imo.
Use the black wheels, don’t change the finish 👍🏻
Black wheel with OEM cap and you are golden.
Yes to the Black alloys....
19:00 The guy who lives there is probably sick of you always doing pulls in front of his house. 🤣
Possibly lol
Those wheels rock! This build is going to look awesome 👏 keep them black👍
Take the apex hub caps out and put porsche ones in
check something connected between driving wheel and steering rack
Get the 5 spoke silver wheels Bronze or Black. The Apex wheel style doesn’t look good on her. Just my opinion 🤷🏽♂️
Black wheels look great but I kinda like those race wheels too. Might look good in bronze or gunmetal
Black wheels are indeed super nice if they have Porsche center caps (I would do that on the yellow one too imo) and maybe yellow brakes… But i think the size of the oems are a bit better… 18” may be i bit small…
Love the black wheels. Black or bronze... either way I think they look great!
Love the project, hate the Apex wheels, and the black in particular.
I typically like bronze wheels, but not with this particular one. Not with the terra cotta interior.
You know from Insta that I love the Turbo wheels. They provide just a bit of flash with a subdued paint job like silver or this chalk grey.
I think the best option is to use the wheels you had on it before. I think they're forged, which is nice. Yank the slicks and refurbish them in a metallic grey that's a little bit darker than your chalk paint.
They are forged. High quality wheel too. May keep em
@@matt13ross Make them pretty and use them! The Apex look like $500/set rims that 20 year-olds buy for their Kias.
Black wheels are meh. With the silver paint, gold BBS LM wheels would look amazing 👌
Mag blue wheels would honestly go SUPER well with that chalk grey
Too many colors lol
Haha i bet😂
Apex wheels in bronze will look great.
I vote for the silver tri-spokes. Perfect for the body color
in my opinion the wheels with the slicks are the best looking and probly performing ones , i bet they are lighter too.. idk them wheels that were there some tire swappaduddle and bam looking re
ady
I think the black wheels are the way to go on the 997
I came for the Baby Duramax and have found myself intrigued by the assortment of Porsches. I hope the diesel makes a reappearance someday!
Glad you stuck around after all this time!
Greetings from the UK, the studs you found look like they could be what goes between the block and the bell housing of the gearbox, almost there, keep on keepin' on mate...
Close but not quite.
The apex wheels are great go for them.
Paint those stock turbo wheels metallic black, have them on my Carrera White Cayman and they match nicely!
How to Manually Reset a Steering Sensor. Park your vehicle on a level surface and turn the key to the “ON” position without starting the engine. Turn the steering wheel fully to the left and fully to the right at least 3 times. Turn the key to the “OFF” position and restart the car.
The problem is, that doesn't matter because the car is seeing no input from the steering angle sensor.
Those Apex wheels looks awesome on the 997 just keep them black
The apex wheels in black are lit. I’d keep it just as is
apex wheels looks dope , get new high profile semi slick race tires it will be nuts :D
build the next s65 with supercharger! you are gonna looooove the s65 supercharged! had 2 of them. most brutal sounds you can get! :D
The GT3 wheels are the nicest on the 997 but if you don't weant to fo centre lock then the 19" Lobster Claw's would look great. Paint matched with a diamond cut rim :D
Not a bad option.
Ugliest Porsche wheels ever😂
@@SupermotoCentral love me some lobster 🦞 😋
@@plus790 I just realised the normal GT3's are not centre lock. $$$ though.
Gloss black and keep those wheels man
Drive the car after you had the battery disconnected. Some codes can only be erased after that. I had that issue on my 997 gt3. Durametric are a life saver, good tool to have👍
Problem is no signal is being sent about steering input.
I love your channel, and Taylors! Cool to know you watch him as well.
He's great!
love the wheels, they look awesome but you need Porsche center caps
Refinish the forged wheels! Metallic charcoal (not too dark). A diamond cut lip could look pretty good too.
But if you do go with the Apex, at least the black may disguise how ugly and cheap they look.
I would use the black Apex 100% they look great just the way they are
Definite gloss black
black wheels but 18 ‘’ too small on the 997. 19 for performance or 20 for the look. I prefer mine on 19
Wait till I get tires!
Go with the black wheels you have. They look great!
I really love the stock wheels, but if you want to go with Apex wheels I would keep them black as they are now ❤
Coils are plugged in
Check out the 993 turbo twist 18 inch wheels in black. My favorite.
Not sure on the brand but the wheels with the slicks it's been sat on in bronze would look great, if not that then bronze apex, definitely not black.
When I saw the black wheels, I immediately thought "Make em bronze" and then you suggested it. I think that would be stellar, and unique. Now it's just stellar in black :)
Please no split rims this time, keep this one more classy. Yes the black wheels look good
Black wheels look the best!
Powder coat the stock wheels Gloss Black, then purchase the Black Center Caps you will like the new look.
I think you should do gloss black bro
Every time the vehicle's battery is disconnected or discharged, the Steering Angle Neutral Point memorization and the Steering Sensor Zero Point Calibration must be performed
No signal from it though.
“I’m going to put this battery in awhile”. Gotta love that central PA dialect.
Correct lol
When you disconnect the battery, you always get various error codes related to the PSM. The first time I experienced this, I was also surprised. However, if you drive for a little while, it often goes away. (Especially around many corners). 🙃
No communication with it. So there's no chance I can reset it.
@@matt13rossyou can't reset the psm errors that happen after a battery disconnect. They just clear by themselves after several miles of driving
At 9:00m I should say that if you're having PSM issues, it's definitely the clockspring. You're on the right track Matt! I literally did the same exact thing a month ago with my 997.1. Clockspring is actually not that $$$ either. I don't have a Durametric Pro, but I did use an Icarsoft POR II reader to reset everything. Edit - so just saw the end of your video and yeah - I'm perplexed too but I think you need to calibrate your clockspring after you get it to be identified by durametric.
Problem is the computer is seeing NOTHING from the sensor at all
Black wheels with a polished lip. Otherwise you lose the wheel’s design in the wheel well.
The Apex wheels look fantastic!
Hey Matt, on my 986 the steering angle sensor was towards the bottom of the steering column. I had a similar fault and one specialist garage also tried to fit my angle sensor in the clock spring position 😂
Thank you!
I'd prefer OEM TT wheels, I do like the black wheels.
I like the black rims! A lot!
black apex. it's the only way
