In post #15 in this thread, I mentioned I owned a 1990 964. I bought it for $28,500 in 2000, then sold it 12 years later for mid $30's which was a lot for an unloved, worst year 964. It recently...

John, Add me to the list to the one's who have rebuilt their throttle body with the ArnnWorx rebuild kit. It's easy and satisfying work. My seals were also in poor shape after 31 years...

I believe that is navy below the belt line on the Turbo. I've seen later model non Turbo 924's with similar paint schemes. I could be wrong, but I think the pinstripe is factory...

My rack had 186,000 miles on it and was leaking quite a bit. This winter, I pulled it and replaced it with a rebuilt unit. The rebuilt rack is ever so slightly tighter in operation (though could be...

I have a pair of 3 year old Rhino ramps. I won't tell you about the abuse that they've taken, but on a light weight Porsche, they work great and are really holding up especially after dropping a car...

I bought a running and driving '87 924S beater (as John mentions above, a nearly identical car to your 944) three years ago. Oil leaks and oil pools everywhere on top of the motor. Horrible gas...

John, I have an opinion on the interior color. It's just an opinion and not based on any fact other than a few years of looking at pretty much every 924 for sale that I can find. So, my opinion...

I used Porsche bushings for the front position on the controls arms after receiving a set of 'name brand' bushings with Made in China stickers on them. Maybe the Made in China ones were...

I've made plenty of errors that caused hours of rework on my 924S. I too fall into the Rank Amateur category. Maybe even below that...

The heater valve is at the top of the motor and clutch bell housing smack up against the firewall. I'm sure you'll replace with new once you are there including the small heater hose elbow...
