Located in Northern NJ and looking to sell it quick. Car is sitting in a temperature controlled garage and not being used, hood looks ajar in first picture b/c its on a trickle charger.

Interior:
- Alpine headunit with polk speakers and xm radio/antenna.
- Custom safety devices rollbar
- Customer interior with sparco alcanterra recliners and matched door panels and rear seat
- Lots of subtle interior accessories make it finished really well

Exterior:
- over $15k of body work/restoration done to replace all worn seals, trim, inserts, sills, etc...all documented as well.
- Carbon front lip
- Paint is gorgeous with newer oem bumpers

Suspenion/Wheels/Brakes:
- 944 Turbo S big Brake Kit front and rear
- Forgeline 18x8.5 and 18x9.5
- Cross 8k/10k Coilovers
- misc components upgraded/replaced, too many to list, documented from powertech though.


Engine/Drivetrain:
- 968 6 speed trans
- 87-89 951 upgraded axle assemblies
- a/c converted to 134a fully updated with new compressor, dryer, etc.
- fabspeed 951 highflow cat

- 20lb NEX NOS kit, with remote bottle opener, heater, purge, etc.
- greddy profec b boost controller
- 46mm 0.9 wastegate with custom flange mount

Lots of other details not listed, but the car is really nice and its for someone who wants it done this way...save the money of doing it yourself and have it already done by a quality professional shop with all the right stuff.

I can't see who would want to track that car,it's a beautiful example of a well done street car,
very tastefully modified !

Cheers
Phil

One of the reasons it was never tracked, but makes for a great streetcar as well. Whoever buys it can do whatever they want with it

Beautiful car! Would you be able to take a headroom measurement? Do you know how the existing headroom compares with, say, a stock 997? Are the seat cushions removable?

Thanks.

Sure, I'll take some measurements shortly and post them up. The seat is mounted very low though, and I would guess there is easily a few more inches of headroom than stock.

How tall are you?

Which cushions are you referring to? The front reclinable Sparco's do not have cushions.

I attached a quick photo I put together of the seat height comparison to stock, with a red line showing the height difference...its pretty substantial.

6'2" but with a 30" inseam. I've never sat in a 944 so I don't have a point of comparison there but my hair brushes the ceiling of a stock 997 Carrera. Definitely can't sit comfortably with a helmet on. Thanks for the quick response!

My buddy did an HPDE in a 944 with buckets where the bottom cushion velcro-ed out. Guess these are different. I'll tell him he's an idiot.

Ha, he's not an idiot - non-reclinable buckets usually do have cushions to customize fit and make the seat more comfortable since they are steel or composite shells. These are more street friendly.

Car is still available.

Fyi the seat vertical head room is 36" and the angled headroom, along your torso, is 37"

Default Is it still for sale

I am interested in your car. Modified a little bit too far for me, but could you answer some questions for me.

Can the NOS be removed without having to replace any of the intake parts?

What is the displacement of the motor now?

Where is the car located?

I may more questions, but these are all for now.

Send me a PM or a phone number to talk.

Thank you for your help. Bob

Ran the car last night and took it for a spin around the block to warm it up - this thing is wicked fast! Someone needs to make a good offer and give it a good home where it can be driven!

Nice car. Why are the door sills red and what is the color of the exterior? Thanks.
