Default No longer FS in Alberta: 944 with cage & turbo project


$9000 CDN obo
Project is 90 percent done. This project needs some finishing touches, most of the heavy lifting is done. Designed around a driver 5'8''-6'1''.
-Full multipoint roll cage with removable nets
-Racing seats & harnesses
-Sparco "flip up" steering wheel
-All lights & even A/C retained for street driving.
-Lowered suspension with new Bilstein HD Strut inserts
-Rebuilt ported head with ported intake manifold & 65mm throttle body.

-Brake calipers rebuilt and system bled. New pads f&r.

-Forged pistons & rods. New rod bearings.
-Newer clutch & clutch components.
-Newer rear main seal.

-Diff is a oem LSD "S" transaxle

At this moment the cars doesn't run. I lost momentum with it before completing the wiring, and need to take a break from the garage. My loss is your gain. This car is capable of producing 300+ hp and handles like a dream. Note: this car is built for driving hard, it's not a show queen and as such there are imperfections in the body but it's rust free.

Why are you bailing?! Not trying to be a Debbie downer but even with all the work you’ve done you’ll take a bath selling it as a non running project. Why not sit on it and complete when the spirit returns?

When I lost intrest I just bought a few more 944’s. Got six now. Is your problem your unsure how to wire the engine? It’s pretty easy just intimidating if it’s your first time, would you like some guidance? You can try a nagging women in your life to help you enjoy the garage. <——That happens to be unbelievably effective, more so then buying more 944’s.

Noah, you've either got to finish that car, or part it out. It's never going to sell in that state for that price. If you have the storage space, just take a break and come back to it when the passion strikes. Sorry to see the project get stalled out, but we all feel that way some times.

Thanks boys. I'm in. I'll keep the dream alive & see it through. It'll be my reminder never to indulge in a project like this ever again. And at the same time probably become the greatest vehicular driving experience I'll ever have.
