Shouldn't it be a wee bit closer to the firewall?


Come to think of it, that's not a half bad idea. It gets rid of all the complaints most people have about the 924/944.. NO more timing belt, no more water cooling issues. The only issue left remaining would be the location of the engine itself, up front. Maybe you should try a new photo shop to where you put the engine in the hatch, that'll make EVERYONE happy

Oh, BTW, hopefully I'll be done with the AFM this week. Starting work up there next week, so I'll drop it by one night.

Unless I fail AGAIN.
