Riktig dette

Thanks guys! Don't really know why the front looks higher, never adjusted the height since I lowered it. :p But I agree, it does look a bit higher in the front.

Rebuilding the engine these days, as one of the exhaust valves decided to bail out on me. FML!


The other norwegians in here knows what this means.




A few photos from trackday as well.




Eating tires! Front tires that is.


Two pics from auto-X'ing as well.




Cannot decide between refurbishing the Futuras (curbed and clearcoat peel) or saving up for CCW Classics...
I have documented the whole build. Saved the car from going to the junk yard.

Nice turbro! Does it have a sweet bro-off valve?

Nice car, man. I love it.

this is fucking awesome!

[willis]

Looks awesome! This is the best 940 I've ever seen.



Thread title confused me though, thought it was this one haha: vlavlo turbro.

[Andersg]

Oh shit, haha, did not spot that other thread. Me sorry...

Nice turbro! Does it have a sweet bro-off valve?

Nice car, man. I love it.

Haha, yes it does actually. Or did, that is. The turbo died under the complete melt-down, along with it's internal dump valve. I have bought a new turbo for the new engine, an Borg Warner/IHI rhc6. So I need to get my self some kind of dump valve now I guess... One that screams like shit so I can piss of my dad.

Thinking of refurbishing the Futuras this winter. Colour-wise, I have no idea. Thinking of some kind of Primer grey centers with new Porsche centercaps, gold bolts and chromed lips.

I love how you bring a wagon to the track. Did you catch that 240 ahead of you in that one picture?

[Andersg]

Unfortunately I did'nt, I was on a cool down-lap. The radiator started leaking, hence the coolant temp rising... Then falling, begause there was no coolant left. :p

It's (was) quite fast, never dyno'd it tho. Thinking of trying one of those G-meters. It does 0-60 in about 6.5sec and somewhat close to 150mph. Thats fast in a brick!

Thanks for the kind words everyone.
