~140k mi on chassis, ~100k mi on engine
I’m a long-time Rennlist lurker and am selling my street-legal track-day 944 turbo. I bought it stock 10yrs ago at 100k mi and have converted it over for track use. Interior, A/C and heat have been removed. In 2009 the original engine failed (rod bearings) so I installed a replacement engine and tracked it for another year.
Overall, the car is in reasonable shape and comes with a binder full of receipts. Although the shifting is smooth there is some noise coming from the gearbox. The gearbox should be evaluated before tracking it.
Work done in 2009:
Replaced original engine with ‘87 engine from SSI Performance in Parkville, MD
Head freshened by Specialty Cars in Allentown, PA
New clutch/pressure plate (incl pilot bearing and throwout bearing)
New waterpump, belts and rollers
New rod bearings
Injectors tested/cleaned
Modifications:
Safety Devices roll cage
Two Ultra-Shield seats
G-force 6-point harnesses
OEM LSD
Tial dual-port wastegate
Lindsey “black ****” boost controller
Zeitronix wide-band O2 sensor
Vitesse Stage 2 chips
3 bar FPR
Lindsey 3” exhaust with high-flow cat
968 swaybars
Manual steering rack
Racer’s Edge camber plates
