Yes - that's what is concerning me a bit too... but I'll bite the bullet and give it a go.

Thanks for that - so just confirming - you bought a Bosch SR62X for your Porsche 924 NA and had no problems with it fitting (length etc?) If so I'll go ahead and order one today.

Hi - any Aussies with a starter motor they could get to me quickly in Canberra? Mine seems to have died in all the Rudd/Gillard excitement.

Yeah, I never understood the logic, "I want a Ferrari. So, what I'll do is buy a Porsche and blu-tac a wooden spoiler on..." etc.

Alan, you're a champion. That's the unit I have - with a slightly cleaner spot where your label is... Thanks a lot. I'll let you get back to polishing the Ferrari.

Thanks Alan, does your car have the 2 groove clutch and the under-dash blower unit as well?

It's also worth checking what's happening with the positive lead - it is in a location very close to the manifold and the shielding can disintegrate. In most cars it seems to loop from the back of th ...

Hi - trying to get the A/C working on my 1983 Porsche 924 NA. Unfortunately, after loading with dye, local A/C shop tells me the compressor is leaking badly. I'm having trouble identifying it though ...

I had no problems for a couple of weeks, so I was cruising - then it stopped again. This time I was certain it was the relay because the pump wasn't making any noise.

I pulled the relay open and t ...

What did you polish the orange peel out with? I used Farcella G3 and it did an awesome job.

Thanks for the nice comments! I sanded with 800 (yes, it was very bad orange peel...) then 1500, 20 ...

Did your car come with the rear hatch spoiler, or did you add that later?

I bought this car in July and it had some damage a the front and all down the drivers side. The paint was very faded and peeling in places.

So I made some fibreglass repairs to the bumper and di ...

I sprayed my 924 in my garage with acrylic enamel in this gorgeous India Red (which isn't as pink as my cheap camera makes it look in certain images). Finally polished and decal'd, I thought I would ...

Mine has done the same thing (not quite as severe). The old battery I had in the car had a red plastic plate that went over the whole positive terminal area. When I put the new battery in, it didn't ...
