Porsche 944 N/A

[TheLyingLink]

Wish I wasn't a poor college kid, my 944 is just stock and finally running.

As if this couldn't get better! Cracking work!

Nice one on the feature! Which mag is it in?

Oh, and i had a shoot a few months ago, the mag is out this week.

That silly tail pipe is now 2" shorter - shame it took a year to get round to it as it looked crap. Looks factory now-


I look after the underside, so I thought id would show you it, its good for its age.





The gearing is a bit short, it seems to make little difference being in 4th or 5th when you floor it and 1st is a waste of time.
Here is a quick clip to show the gears, i had to keep lifting for traffic but you get the idea, (its gets to 110 quite easily.)

So I bought this -





A G31 Dogleg with LSD, with all conversion parts to fit my 944 including a speedo drive set up



Today, I'm swapping the 944 torsion bars and onto the G31s rear beam.
I will use my alloy arms, brembos, turbo d/shafts and turbo torsion bars but the 924 rear tube.



In all, I will have taller gears, stronger box and a cool 80s dogleg change..

Thanks ^^

The Bosch pump got noisy, now replaced with this Walbro 255.




After 2 years I replaced the non scripted drivers handle with the correct matching one.



Infact there are lots of little bits I change all the time, when they come up. Never worth posting about though, for instance you will notice the l/h/r tail light was a darker lens and they were replaced with a matching set, and the spare wheel was replaced with a magnesium one from a 993 as it fits over the Brembos, I also bought the Bilstein alloy jack from that car.
Slowly I purchased all the little things, complete tool kit, hand books, sunroof bag, ect..

But as one thing is fixed another needs attention -now the outer CV boots, wire fault on o/s main beam

And a period genuine RUF badge has to be better than a sticker right?





you can't buy a Ruf badge, not even from Ruf unless you have a chassis number - so that was a rare find, pleased with that.

I've been dipping in and out of this thread reading the full thing over the last few months, I love it mate, really given be ideas for mine

[Rannem]

If it fits, give me a heads up!

[sumpcracker]

Im aware, been searching for one of those for over a year - not even seen one for sale!
I give up.
I have a feeling a cosworth RS500 one will fit. (ish)

You can try to get hold of a FOHA lip Fairly rare..

It was an option back in the days.
