working on a set of custom 964ish turbo rockers now...rauh welt style to level out the sides on the car, and possibly a custom ducktail....

next is all new suspension and brakes!

I'm not much of a fan of matte finishes, but your car looks great. Be even better with a high gloss duco IMHO.

How are those side mirrors? I am about to install mine but am worried about them vibrating like crazy.

thank you bud, i know the car is not for everyone, and i am sure i am going to catch **** for ruining a "930"...but as you can tell i am not a original person...i believe anyone can be original and stock....:(

as for the mirrors...they suck for seeing anything, i got little round convex things you can get at pep boys and put them in the lower corner,..as for mounts...3m tape and they are solid as can be

Look great...

Rauh welt
 
I love your rah welt style 930. It's kind of no rules, anything goes style , but it came out money.
What kind of power Jim?

I'd be interested in the mirrors if you decide to sell them. I use those on my DP. I attached them with silicone sealer. The Vitaloni Sebring Mach 1 convex mirror is a direct replacement for the flat mirror. Once they are adjusted right (a pain) they work great. I use the convex mirror on the passenger side and the flat on the drivers side.

Jim, that looks nasty (in a contemporary youth vernacular kind of way). Awesome looking build. I gotta get me some of those headlights. :D Thanks for sharing. Digging the Rauh Welt look.

The car looks great! I like matte-black finishes!!

What make/model are the seats? Thanks

stock 3.3 really...

wastegate dump and exhaust from rarly8...fabspeed intake
new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and timing check and that is about all i did...

trans or clutch is on the way out, i can tell its getting harder to shift through the gears....having to double clutch or rev match sometimes,...hoping to get through the summer before pulling it in the fall for a rebuild

equality72521 04-04-2011 04:17 PM

I personally love it. Can you show me some pics of the Rennline lower dash ends? I want to see in detail how it looks edge on so to speak.

mooney265 04-04-2011 04:21 PM

Help me understand how you could get access to the rear seats [maybe for kids] when those seats don't have hinges?

I'd like to get some, but don't know how my kids would be able to get back there???

Oh. You don't have easy access to the rear "seats"

EmptyGarage 04-04-2011 04:37 PM

Got to say that i really like the looks. The flat finish without being over pimped looks great. the urban backdrop for the photo's gives it a real menacing look. Car would not look the same parked in the driveway of wisteria lane !

i have a full RS carpet kit in the car, i made from scratch, which eliminates the back seats, there is also a roll bar, which eliminates the back seats, and i dont have kids yet, which eliminates the back seats...

but if you still have back seats, the seats slide up and back just like normal seats...but yes,..access is limited...

lucky boys to be riding around in a 930 by the way
