well. its not a rx-7. figured i try something different. dont really post on here just pretty much read, but it would be nice to get a few opinions on it.

 

nice low mile car, id drive it,

 

Looks well cared for...nice find!

 

i love how they look so wide bodied out

 

Interesting interesting...

Just don't get carried away with upgrades. The car is more than enough for you to grow into as it sits now.

 

Hah ah!

i digg it sonn

that thing is minttt

 

it needs some tlc. it has good mileage, but it hasnt been driven that often because of it. yea there is more than enough power already. just loose ends to tie up thats it. thanks for all the positive comments though guys!

 

i love 944's. turbo ones with low miles tend to go for bank. if you dont mind me asking, how much did you get it for? very very clean though!

 

no i dont mind at all. you know those amazing deals that you always hear OTHER people telling you they found. thats pretty much what happened to me FINALLY. after registration and taxes is was around 7200 rounding up. the guy was heavily involved w/ other projects. like his old audi quattro turbo. dont know the body style code, but it was from the rallying days. so he ran outa money for it, and had to get rid of the 944. well that was his reason anyway.

 

syyyyck. 944's are one of my favorite cars.

 

sex on wheels.

 

yea if it was healthy or physically possible i would have sex with the car every night lol

 

that is an awesome deal for sure. like i said, i see em on Ebay and stuff selling for bookoo bucks. what kind of TLC does it need?

 

>_<.. K........


That aside, the 944 is pretty cool looking [though I prefer an FC's shape/s ^_- What can I say, I'm loyal..]

Those wheels are pretty good on it, but I think the oval wheels are a little bit better [probably smaller though]

How much power does it put out? Is the insurance killer on it?

Pretty good man ^_^

 

944 FTMFW! Have you seen the red one around here. It's the most beautiful thing ever seen.
This one is sick except for the V8

I'm done now... lol

 

yea the sex on wheels is an on going joke with friends sorry about that. well the powersteering needs to be replaced do to a bolt that sheered off in the pump. intercooler hard pipe has a small crack. need to get some stock rims that dont require spacers.
everything that is done to it-
new timing belt, new waterpump and belt, new injectors and o-rings, new k26/8(turbo from the 3.0L 944T S2) turbo rebuilt by turbonetics, aftermarket wastegate welded on, manual Boost controller(capped at 12 psi), some random company boost gauge, Porsche 993 cup rims (17x8 and 17x9), newer Porsche bucket seats(haven't figured from which on yet), Lindsey Racing chipset. so not to many aftermarket parts. just a 60xxx tune up.
as for speed. well the clutch is factory, and slips if i go aggressively into boost. its really hard to say right now to be honest. my brothers girlfriend has a sti swapped 2.5 RS that put down 260 to the wheels. its faster than my car, but nothing to really brag about since i have several things to address on my car. i will definitely take it to a dyno when i button everything up.

 

very nice find, I approve. my girlfriend drives a 88 944, fun car to drive and makes the fc look like a cheap Japanese pos

 

I agree with that statement in the sense that most Porsche owners take care of their cars, while the vast majority of FC's were neglected and had a tough life due to irresponsible kids. As far as the body styling goes, I like both about equally. The 944 looks more modern while the trim on the FC breaks up the body and keeps the styling slightly more dated. I love how both cars drive, but I find myself missing my FC due to the powerband and the lack of weight.

Anyways that was my $0.02.

I drove around in the Porsche today and it was very plesant compared to my 2.5RS. Much easier to drive and much more 'street-able'. We'll have to trade cars more often once we both get new clutches.

 

Very nice

 

Congrats. Its a very nice looking car and they drive very well.
Fordahl Motorsports can help you out with suspension if you are looking for any of that. You should get it out to the track to really appreciate it.

 

or better yet, do a jeremy clarkson and add rocket launchers to the sides

944 turbo.. Nuff said. That was a nice find have fun with it I would have bought one of I had the cash a little while ago

 

Jeremy Clarkson - a True Hero.

 

gota stop looking at this thread, i looked at these things last night and now i reall think i want one, even thinking of getting an N/A one to desicrate (spelling?) later on down the road. just saw one on ebay with an lt1 and thought to myslef that an ls3 with a nice cam would be amazing in one of these, but that was just dreaming way outside of my wallets spending limits. the lines of these cars just grow on you

 

i knew a guy back when i was in auto-tech that had a n/a 944...god was it a POS. then again, it was rattle can yellow, and had "kool" neon INSIDE the car. as long as you keep the 944 away from interior neon, i'll agree that its a very good car
