This is a pristine example of a 1986 951/944T with great original Guards red paint. Paint, honest 8.75, would give it a 9 but road rash on mirrors. Very little rash up front, bra was used for road trips. Runs incredibly well, no dash cracks, no bolster rash. Starts and idles perfect even after couple of weeks of not driving it fires right up, idles perfect! It is firm ride, not bone jarring, and just incredible fun on the weekend.
The Good - No cracked dash; dash was NEW 10 yrs ago in Porsche box. Seats were also done at the same time, no perforated inserts. New WX stripping too.
Everything works as it should - windows, sunroof, mirrors, wipers, rear wiper, A/C, heat, clock, cig lighter, cruise control. Still has original stereo and cassette separators in glove box. Has A/F ratio readout and plate in place of map pocket.
The bad - No tool kit or compressor - that's it. There is a little bit of rattle, either sunroof or rear hatch on rough roads.Minor dimple on hood but small
New engine by JAB Racing with less than 3k miles on it.Engineblockwas sent to Duffin Engine in San Antonio for Alusil prep for 100.5 Mahle Ferroprint pistons. All new bearings and seals of course. LR II head with standard thickness Cometic gasket. New water pump and all belts, copper nuts onexhaustand turbo flanges. LR 2 pc crossover pipe, wrapped under oil pan for heat control. LRintercooler pipe, LR Fuel rail, KLA strut brace. Vitesse Racing Stage II complete kit with SMT6 in glove box, with KONI forfront shocks. Laptop and CD come with the car. Speed force SSexhaust. LSD transaxle with cooler and short shift, purchased long time ago from Tony G. Specpressure plateand cup car disc for clutch on build. Mille Miglia 17" turbo twist replicas. Shod with Goodyear F1 GS D3 tires. Tires are 60%. Car is on VR 1 oil, and runs extremely cool on temps; as mentioned new water pump, hoses, thermostats. The fans and the aux water pump work on proper cool down and timing to stop. Idles 14.5 - 14.7 and I would expect it to pass smog test.
Suspension is full Koni, up front Koni insertstrutswith adjustment on top. Rear Koni coil over,torsion barremoved. Spring rate is 500 up front and 400 rear. 968sway barsfront and rear.
This is a reliable fun car that was built to drive. It handles well, performance is really nice at 16psi, and built by two guys who just like the platform. Car is dry as a bone underneath.
Title in the hand. Had fun with it for a year but looking for a BMW 1M. This car is road ready. No need to buy a fixer-upper. This one is a a beauty and runs like a scalded dog! lol
