Yo, Chuck. Did you get the e-mail I sent you?

17's on the GT clone
Lemming,
Here's a pic of when the GT had 7.5 & 9.0X17 C2 rims. They fit with but a little massaging done to the pass. side flare.
This pic is from the '04 Rennsport @ Daytona.

I just picked up an 88 924S also. Was burgundy originally, now red. These make great 944 spec race cars. There's a NASA 944 spec group in Phoenix, AZ. Go to www.944spec.org.

I also recently picked up an 88. My plan is to freshen up the suspension and brakes and turn her into a track car. Hopefully Ill be on track by the end of the year. Should keep me busy learning since the car is the exact opposite of the V6 Golf I was driving.

Holy crap! I just picked up another 87 924S for $300. Oil mixing into the water. It'll get repaired and probably built up as another 944 spec car.
But get this! Driving home the other day, took a different route than normal. Drove by a trailer park and found a Martini 924. Pretty cool. It was completely covered except a small portion in the front where you could see the blue pin stripes.....

I've got one. Fantastic car. I'm still learning how to drive it properly, but it handles awesome. My previous(and current) other 2 cars have been American Muscle, so this car is light, nimble, and small in comparison(and slow...).
I've got more in repairs/upgrades than I paid for the car, so you know I'm hooked.

As for the motor, it's really worked, full race motor. 2.0 L, big valve head, dry sump, dual sidedrafts, open exhaust goes right through the pass compartment. The sound is unmistakable and everyone comments how nice it is going by.
