TwinTurbo959

There are two of these sensors on each wheel.





You can also see the "hollow spoke" Channel in this photo:


this is the sensor housing on the inner side of the wheel (facing the brake system)

Thank you!

Except the protection inside the rim, they look really similar to those of a 928.

Another question for you.
Do you think these aluminum doors are from a 959?

TwinTurbo959

They look different then original 959 doors, Holes for mirrors, curvature of leading edge of the door. Are they aluminum inside and out?

928cs

Yes, all aluminum.

the lower corner is not correct, this is probably an early 80's door

do you have a close up of where the outside skin, wraps over the inner skin?

I think they all have matching interiors as well too? (Except the 964.) I.E. Gold on gold, purple on purple, etc.. I've also read the reason for seven is .... one for each day of the week!

I'm surprised he didn't order another when Porsche built a few more in the '90's.

I always suspected that Turbo S was owned by the same guy because of the stripes. Thanks for confirming my suspicions!

I want to say I think I thought I maybe perhaps saw a picture of the striped green car. Is it dark green? I could be mistaking the picture for the non-striped dark green car.

Cool! I've never seen a picture of one of the fabled 90's versions!

Question: Is a 959 with leather sport seats merely a Komfort model optioned with such? I've seen numerous 959s with leather sport seats.

Quite the source of 959 information you are!

I've always wondered the story on this car:



I recall reading it was brought to North America where it briefly raced in SCCA, after which was subsequently converted back for street use?

What does it do?... I was reading that mclaren f1 engineers scour eBay for old computers which can run the software to talk to their cars. Electronics move on so fast.. Amazing you need that thing. Very cool

It's a coolant hose. Retail was around $800 when it was available. I have no idea how often they get replaced, but hoses do wear out. Are you in a 959 yet?
