Default Boy its good to be back (New Car Pictures)
Well, most of you probably saw my thread about my 86 951 catching fire and buring away to the point of nothing being salvagable. I decided I needed another 951.

I took out a loan from the bank, and with my parents help will be paying it back. I cant imagine driving anything elses besides a Porsche at this point, and this car looked perfect. I plan on doing autocross with SCCA and PCA this season, so this will probably be the perfect car. Now, onto the car!

Heres whats been done to her
Koni Yellow Adjustable Shocks at all 4 Corners
MO30 968 Hollow Front Sway Bar
Weltmeister adjustable Rear Sway Bar
17" Porsche Cup 2 Wheels
Brand New Sumitomo HTRZII Tires 275/40 Rear 225/45 Front
Porsche Turbo BIG RED Brakes
Cat Bypass
Edelbrock Exhaust
No Power Steering
FiberGlass Front Fenders
FiberGlass Nose
AC Delete Bracket
OMP Racing Seats
OMP Steering Wheel
Seatbelt Bar
Sabelt 5pt Camlock Seatbelts
Huntley Racing chips

I guess needless to say the car handles on rails. Im very happy with it so far. Heres a few pictures of her.(It was not the best day to take pictures, but I didnt want to keep you guys waiting )











Thanks for looking. Tell me what you think!
Its good to be back!

-Jeff

If that's true manual steering, you're going to love it.

Nice! That didn't really take very long at all (getting the new one).

Those seats and belts look ready for some really serious driving as well as a nice color accent!

Cool!
