>>16550798
Does it work?

>>16550798
Anything wrong with it?
I'm assuming there is

>>16550813
If it does work, how long do you expect it to work?

WEW thats 2 bad m8

>>16550813
Yeah I drives great.
It's has a few issues. AC doesn't blow cold, fuel gauge doesn't work, wiper motor is bad, the sunroof leaks.
Just minor stuff.

gross! those non turbo ones are such shit
the 931 was a great car. the 924 was garbage on a stick. the 951 was an excellent car, but kind of maintenance heavy the 944 non turbo was also shit

>>16550837
It's only got 57k original miles.

>>16550798
Also, what are you intending to do with it?

>>16550853
>Return
sweet

>>16550846
The non S model 924 is definitely garbage, but the S has the same engine as the base 944. The performance is actually better because it weighs less.

>>16550857
I plan on fixing the problems and making it a decent daily driver. I'm a mechanic by trade, so it should be a fun experience.

>>16550798
924....... don't people give those away for a small tax right off?

>>16550832
How easy is sun roof stuff to fix?

>>16551076
The rubber seal around the sunroof is rotten and cracked. It should be pretty easy to replace, at least I hope so.

>>16550827

Th-thanks

>>16551368
Dad couldn't afford to buy you a 911?

>>16551436
Nah he's too busy investing in properties and my money's all tied up paying tuition and saving up for the closing of my house

>>16551450
Lol nice.

Maybe it's time for /pog/ in op's honor.


OP,
Well done, sounds like a good find. Sunroof leak is super common, as are little electrical gremlins. You will have zero problems working on this being a mechanic. Just maintain that water pump.

>>16551700
The car is more or less in sound mechanical shape and OP is a professional mechanic and is willing to fix anything that could go wrong

Stay salty you bus rider

>>16551705
sup ops boyfriend

only thing salty is your mouth faggot

Nice Volkswagen with an Audi transmission.

Should have just gotten a Sirocco instead. You would have saved a bunch of money and had substantially the same car.

>>16551735
That said, the Phone Dials are nice. Kudos on that one.

>>16551735
But anon, the sirocco doesn't have a 160 hp Porsche designed engine

>>16551789
The 924 doesn't have a Porsche engine either. It's got a VW engine out of a van.

>>16551854
OP bought a 924S, it has a Porsche engine from the 944

>>16551099
does Porsche still stock oem seals?

>>16551874
Well I'll be. And here I thought they were all VW/Audi bastards throughout production. I am genuinely surprised that Porsche did bother to put some actual Porsche parts in some of the later ones.

Color me impressed.

>>16551903
they had to

VW stopped making the engine and they needed a cheaper car than the 944

>>16551892
Yeah I'm sure they do. It's just a strip of rubber, I don't even think it's pre-formed. I doubt it would make a difference if it's OEM or not.

>>16551903
>>16551935
lol

Damn thing is faster than a 944 too because it's lighter

>>16550822
About a week.

enjoy your rust

>>16551892
If Porsche does not have the part on hand, they will make it, regardless of year.

It will cost you but they will make it.

>>16553832
Even a brand new base model Accord only makes 10 more horsepower while having to lug around a lot more pigfat, unless you spergeout on the V6 in which case it's still pigfat and can't turn

>>16550798
>>16550841

be gone.


>>16553744
this is silly. Porsche parts (such as seals) tend to be cross platform stuff, the odds are that it has a VW part number as well.

There are tons of resources for parts, most of which are reasonable but you do occasionally get a unicorn that can only purchased from porsche at 3 times the cost of a comparable part on a similar car. That is typically the exception in my experience.

I don't even like Porsches, but that's a pretty great find op. If I had the cash and was in the area I would have bought it!

>>16557316
Color isn't too bad, I reckon it would look good with yellow 5 spoke racing wheels. But I probably wouldn't pay more than $2800 for it.

any shots of the interior? will you upgrade for a backwindow wiper?

Same bro. Just throw some HD textures and shaders on it and it looks as good as any modern AAA title, or just play vanilla for maximum nostalgiabomb.

Ignore all the haters OP they are great cars to own. Just change that T belt and water pump if you don't know the last time it's been done

>>16550798
Needs sikk IMSA bodykit

>>16561427
>Just change that T belt and water pump
BOTH timing belts. Very important.

>>16561519
I removed the covers on my 944 so if the balance shaft belt went it wouldn't take the timing belt with it.
OP definitely get the tools to make sure you get the tension correct too and don't waste money on a Kevlar belt they fail just as hard and they're loud as shit

>>16561379
I don't think I can handle the SEPIA

>>16561728
Shhh about the belts I tell everyone it's a turbo
