Posted: Thu Mar 10, 2011 5:19 am Post subject: My little 931 Project |
|
|
Been around porsche's for a few years but mostly hanging around on rennlist.
Killed my dailydriver around x-max and then i realized i had this 931 sitting around with an blown engine... that had been sitting for 10 years
Had a spare engine, installed a wastegate with a stiffer spring, and added a front mount intercooler, changed all brakes
Running 14psi
And it's been lowered a little bit
Here's a 5 year old pic, parked outside my old garage
And how it is now,
And a pic that shows the garage

Yes, nice project and setup, as well as an interesting group of cars.
I like the "teaser" with a couple of the car covers pulled up slightly to arouse some interest in the last photo I suppose ! _________________ '95 BMW 318i/5 ..."Pearl"

I love the 'rat' look. Not sure if thats your plan but looks nice sat low on those wheels. Please let me know the wheel a tyre specs. I guess the Icelandic weather isn't too kind to Guards Pink, sorry Red!!

Weather has some part in the pinkish effect but, leave any red car outside for 10 years, i'd think you would get the same effect
And the rat look is there to stay for some time
The Wheels are O.Z. Futura 3 piece wheels
9'' in front and 10'' in back
215/40/17 and 225/45/17
Thou in the first pic's i had 245 in back
Rolled the fenders, camber is 4.5 degrees in the back _________________ x7 Porsche's |

All your cars are nice ... I like the wheel set-up and the side skirts on the orange one are pretty cool. _________________ 1979 porsche 924 Na
