This week...oil pan gasket, new motor mounts, swapped in depowered rack for a manual rack.

Very glad I decided to do all three at same time.

Spent some time looking around Sydney for some 15x7 fronts and 15x8 cookie cutter rears to match the original spec my car came with.

whb944s and andys-944 Glad you guys are both okay. I'm sure you're both pretty distraught.

If somehow people understood how much goes into these cars they'd be more careful. Morons.

But, glad you're both okay.

I don't think Cookie Cutters ever came in 15x8. Fuchs did, you have the correct sizes for a 944 delivered with Fuchs. Cookies I'm pretty sure only came in 15x6 and 15x7. The 944 got 7's all around.

Take care!

Da'ym, thats some elevation change. standing on turn one looking at the start? would have been sooo much fun if that was the last turn heading for the finish!....

They can lay a lot of pavement in pretty short order, but thats not building confidence in November...

Test-fitted my old IC setup to the 951 nosed 924 CGT.
Replaced the id plate holders.
Bought a POP-OFF valve since my K27/K26 hybrid does not have one.
Did some measurements and realised that i have to lower the rear right corner by 10mm. i'll try do get this done from the eccentrics.

If you're wondering, it was made out of two small plastic storage tubs

Time to do it right and buy a stock airbox k&n and use the aluminum ducting from stock box down to fender... Ug.
Butters, do this idea.

the white is any tube you can get your hands on.
the blue is any plastic/aluminium/fiberglass that you can get your hands on.
red is a cone filter.

I think it's pretty understandable the picture i drew in 10 seconds.
