I bought my late build bone stock ‘95 87K mi, manual coupe in the fall of 2015. Thanks to my Rennlist brothers and sisters, I knew how to make it better, and it was really nice to start with, but that’s another story. Thank you John!
It’s been one project, after another. Suspension, exhaust, shifter, lights, servos, etc, etc. Yep it’s been apart more than it’s been together. Just finished speaker upgrade. So I was wondering what percentage of our P-cars are in some state of repair. Not really sure how to do a poll, but here goes.
Last time I drove mine was 1 August 2017. Been apart since then. Suspension first and now engine work. Late May at the earliest for it to be drivable again. I've only been in Florida for about half that time and not back until late May, so not an issue.
Usually it's together, but currenly it's apart at BBi Autosport. Getting the suspension refreshed and some other knickacks done (slippery slope strikes again).
Life's hard-learned lessons:
Only have one 993 project running at a time;
Never leave your car in a non-running state for any longer than necessary and never any longer than a few days.
When in the company of an automotive advisor or technician and the phrase "while I'm in there" comes up RUN or if you stay it's gonna hurt.
When traveling in your 993 and stopping at a restaurant don't eat anything bigger than your head, no good can come from this.
Currently at the shop for some shiny bits.. It's going to be a good spring.
9M heads, mechanical cams, injectors and 95 ecu.

The slope is slippery indeed. Not a bad shop to have take care of the work. Converting to coilovers?
At the moment, my Dung Beetle is 100% together & functional. And covered in dust.

Oh hell NO...say it isnt so!!

@ sander97C2...The car comes with coilovers, so hopefully he's ditching those worthless tired old Monroe coilovers for some fresh and technically updated aftermarker coilovers.
