Adrian, we're on the same wavelength. BTW, you should send me a PM with your coordinates since we're both in SE MI. I host get-togethers for other water cooled enthusiasts at least once or twice a year...
For my 931 project, I already have a good baseline to start with. My plans are to build a fresh 931 S2 motor based on the Euro specs, retaining the stock Euro DITC (digital ignition and timing control), and the Euro wastegate spring. I may consider a hot street cam, and possibly lightening the rotating assembly. Definitely will be balanced, and I have a set of competition motor mounts that will go into this car, just because the stock mounts are probably shot and I have these extras sitting on the shelf.
The G31 trans will be fitted with an LSD I have, and the Euro R&P + 5th gear will be perfect for track events. And it's easy enough to swap in some suspension upgrades, most of which I already have. Add in some forged wheels for further lightening.
You bring up a good point regarding the headlights. On the narrow body car, I'm debating about whether to do a fixed headlight conversion (I have the stuff on the shelf) or to leave the flip ups...thinking about the 924S "SE" vs. the CGT. Would definitely help in the weight department...
Good stuff!
