This was the deal of the day though over on Pelican - don't know what is going on with Turbo S's lately...

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsc...le-2500-a.html

'89 Turbo for sale $2500

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sale Pending

1989 Porsche 944 Turbo (951) 135,000 miles
Zermatt Silver with Burgandy Interior
Chrome 17" 993 Cup wheels (chrome is pitting)

I have owed this car for the past six years. I am the second owner. I have all receipts from anything ever purchased for this car. I lost interest in the vehicle, and my priorities in life changed from a single male to a father with a mortgage. I would love nothing more but to restore her to her former glory, but sadly she must go.

I have a love affair with these cars which is surpising if the fact that I have let this vehicle get into this shape. This was my first of three Porsches, and the last that I regretably am letting go. I have owned another 951 which I left stock, and have had an '84 911 as well. Although the 951 does not turn quite as many heads as a 911 will, it will definately blow the doors off of one! Discounting your 996 posrches and newer, nothing brings such driving satisfaction, comfort, and performance to the table as a 951 does.

The vehilce has been sitting for a little over a year. I started it up about 6 months ago and let her run for a couple minutes, until I noticed a fuel leak. I promptly turned it off with intentions of fixing the leak. I have never gotten around to this. Aside from the fuel leak and a new battery, she will start and run just fine.

With all the performance modifications done to the engine/drive-train, the car should be professional tuned. It runs great until the upper rpm range where the fuel trim is just not set well enough. The vehicle can be 100% tuned and calibrated via a laptop computer which is hooked up to a device under the dash.

I know I will be missing a few but here are the modifications I have done, all of which can be found on Lindsey Racings Website (lindseyracing.com)

Lindsey Racing Dual-Port Wastegate
Lindsey Super 65 Turbo (ceramic coated)
Lindsey Maf kit with Mafterburner and brand new cone filter
Lindsey 3" Turbo back catless exhaust system (3" downpipe)
Lindsey Stainless Steel Braided Fuel Lines
Lindsey High flow fuel rail, Siemens 55# flow-matched fuel injectors, 3 bar fuel pressure regulator with mechanical gauge, Lindsey Power Pack w/ High Flow Fuel Pump
Complete Tune up with Hi performance wires, coil, plugs, etc
Stage 3 Centerforce Clutch with Lightweight flywheel
Lowered on Eibach Springs on Konis
26 9/16” long 28mm torsion bars
Full Synthetic Oil its whole life
Lindsey Intake Manifold
Lindsey Polished Hard intercooler pipes
Lindsey Stage 2 Intercooler
Lindsey A-pillar gaurge pod with boost/vacuum gauge and fuel pressure gauge
Lindsey Black **** Manual boost controller
Kokeln Short shift kit. LSD Transmission was rebuilt in year four or so of ownership and shifts great
Lindsey Oil Catch Can / Breather
Lindsey Aluminum Expansion Coolant Tank
Lindsey A/C Delete Bracket & Venturi Delete
Lindsey Boost Enhancer. Lindsey Aluminum Blow-off Valve.
Wideband 1000
Cup 2 Wheels
Euro Driving Lights
Lindsey Racing 951 MAX HP Chips

I know I am missing items but this is all I can think of off the top of my head. I tried to disclose this car as honestly as possible. It needs some Major TLC. With the right owner it can definately be brought back to life with some money and hard work. The body is strait and rust free other than a small crack in the windshield and a fuel leak it will start and run. Once brought back with the hardware already on it and a good tune it will put 350-400 whp.

I am willing to entertain offers, but it does have a solid $15k in parts on it so be semi realistic please. Car is sold as is.

Thanks,
Bill

If you want to see the car, it is located in Springfield, VA
