My plans are to start attending some local autox and track events once its ready.

[chi town brat]

Hope to see you out at a PCA or BMW event. Will you eventually be hitting up the road courses with this?

[Spin Out]

Nice looking car. You're doing some good work there.
Bring it out to a Porsche autocross in Z-hills.

I really like those cars. Very good HP potential, and room for massive tires.

[g-50Cab]

Nice - nice 930 too.

[Just Dave]

Very nice cars. I know the turbo 944's are definitely not cheap to build and make good HP.

My friend had 2 N/A 944's right out of HS. Not very quick from a start, but VERY well balanced cars.

I have had this since i was 19 and had it for about 4 years now. I paid $9800 for it. I would say in total i have about $14000 in it after all the mods that i have done.

Yes i would say that it has not been cheap. But to have a car that is a well balanced car such as a modded 944 turbo you really get a great bang for your buc.

[jonBODON]

Very nice build. pretty dang clean 944!
Btw, if your father ever wants to sell the car ;] I'm looking for one.

[x944turbo]

Just got in my new Odyssey Battery. It only weights 16 pounds. I will installl it in the next few days...

Right now i am also wiring the cooling fans so they are always on when the ignition is on. My reason for doing this is because the previous owner had them hooked up to a toggle swich and when i went behind the dash and removed all the alarm and stereo wiring the cooling fans stopped working. So i will redo it my way,

i will post pics when finished.
