Default FS: 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo

Due to some repairs that I am not willing to perform at this time. I am putting my 951 up for sale. It has approximately 167,000 miles on the original engine. While the car runs fine, it has a couple of issues. Oil pressure is a low, peaking at around 4 bar under acceleration, and is lower when warmed up. Also, I have started to get wavering engine temps, and I suspect an oil cooler leak. The car is definitely running hot, which will have to be fixed. The engine will likely need a rebuild in the not too distant future.

It has a few mods including Tial 38mm wastegate, Vitesse chip, 3bar FPR, and turbo cup suspension package and 968 sway bars. Exterior is estimated at about a 6. The paint is nice, except for the roof, which is slightly faded. The interior is really nice, with the exception of the all too typical dash cracks. I have the original Fuchs on the car.

Other issues: The hatch pins need to be replaced, as it is difficult to keep the hatch closed at the moment.

I am pricing the car to move, with an asking price of $2500.

I have records dating back 20+ years and have owned the car myself since 2001. I have at least $15k in receipts since then. The car is located on the northwest side of Chicago.

I'll upload some pics when I get home from work. I'll have to take some more current ones as well, though the car looks the same. It's currently in my garage. I wasn't going to get rid of it, but I just don't have the extra cash to make it what I wanted anymore. I was going to target a 3L build in the future.

Bump for a change to the original post. The car is being sold as a running car that needs work or for parts.

PM sent. I have a customer looking for one that needs a little work and you're located fairly close.
