So Im putting out the call for the above mentioned parts.

Contact Herman K via PM to see what he might have that you need. His 928 man cave was destroyed by a tornado and he is selling his 928 stash.

In addition, 928 Intl has historically had a year end 1/2 off sale that begins basically after November 23 until December 25. 928Intl will typically have anything you might need since they are arguably the largest breakers of 928's in the world.

And finally, LA dismantlers MIGHT have anything else you may need that 928 Intl did not have.

Thanks. I need to sell my C4 Corvette before I can start spending.
LAD has nothing. I’m well aware of 928 INT.
I am making some progress on the engine. I’ll get under the car next week to see what’s going on under there. Remove the flywheel to clean rust and replace rear crank seal and clean the suspension.
The master cylinder looks terrible. I’ll pull it and see how bad it is on the inside.

So Im putting out the call for the above mentioned parts. I could buy a parts car here but i dont want to deal with the $100/month parking and $1000 carcass disposal fee. Just a used transmission here cost $2-5000 so thats a no go.I have been searching Ebay, so if anyone is scraping a 928S4 please let me know.

there is an s4 on Craigslist in md for parts. It's black.

I think shipping it to Japan would be cost prohibitive.

I got a $1200 87-S4. It's complete except for front seats, rear spoiler and ecu. Now to wait for the snow to melt.

rufrob 02-08-2018 05:04 PM

Let the games begin!! Radiator, ac condenser, exhaust, gas tank all out.
Engine looks in really good condition. No oil leak, painted can covers and intake manifold.

How much for the front seats? DM me with details.

rufrob 02-12-2018 05:24 PM

Sorry. No front seats are for sale from the 928.

rufrob 02-15-2018 08:20 AM

Too busy today to take pics. Damn that transmission is heavy. Dragging it on loose ground didn't help either. I had to deploy all the wisdom of the ancients cus there was no app for this.
I got the rear ends swapped. The wiring harness on the 87-donor is completely deteriorated. So I need to swap the good harness from the 89. Plus the 89 rdk sensor. What to do with that? Of course all the cv boots are shot, so the left axle nut same off no issue but the left has broken 4 1/2" drives. Fun and games people. Back to work for 4 day before I can touch it

Gotta use a 3/4" drive for those axle nuts. 1/2" drives don't have enough uumph.

Bigfoot928 02-15-2018 02:03 PM

just be safe and buy a 1" breaker bar and the socket you need.

https://www.amazon.com/Titan-12049-1-Inch-40-Inch-Breaker/dp/B003OA2J34

Rusted
axle nuts are a bear. Spray with PB Blaster


Import it if you have to.

rufrob 02-15-2018 05:22 PM

No PB Blaster here. Just domestic stuff which I guess works. My friends shop doesn't have a 3/4 32mm socket so I need to snoop around to find a shop which does and will let me borrow it.
I went to 4 diy stores yesterday and all but the automotive tool shop had the adapter only 1 instock. I bought most of my tools from these shops but I guess not many Japanese like rolling around in the dirt fixing their cars. Lots of tool for construction workers but precious few for the lowly mechanic.

I have a set of 8 way for sale in very nice shape. Vinyl covered in black.

Use 50/50 acetone and atf. The best (4x better than PB blaster) for loosening.
