Did you do any engine work on the car and do you have any pics of the engine?

Mon ami,
Vous avez une belle voiture.
Bonne chance
EDIT: I either said "you have a beautiful car" or "you have a nice belly button". Not sure which. _________________ '80 924 n/a SOLD |

I'm sure he'll appreciate the compliment either way!
Nice car, 924CS. I'm not convinced by the green wheels, but at least you'll stand out on the track, which is what it's all about! _________________ 1985 Porsche 924 'Lux', Kalahari Beige (my ex)

the motor, but i must close the admission, because my motor need frech air.
i think put an 924GTS hood air, if i find one of course
the shift light is very lightning. When i put it i'ts without the seats and steering wheel. it's not annoying but you must be careful when you sit down or out. I thing changing the position this saturday.
of course can make a drawing for the inition circuit.
it's not chinese but Japanese  _________________ Race is Life |

I'm not certain, but I hope it says..."We give you a little money and you drive around track with our decals on your car, OK?" or something like that.  |

Looks like you've done a fine job on your car, I'm with mike924 about the green wheels (it's iffy) but hey, tha's all personal preferance. Anyways, I noticed that you had a cone type filter, I'm no expert but I've read somewhere that having a cone filter allows the heat from the engine to go back into the intake which defeats the purpose of "cold-air-intake" I just wonder which would be better for performance, knowing that a cone filter will allow more air in than the standard set up.

For some weird reason I kind of like the green wheels for a track car. Maybe my colorblindness is coming into play on that one.
The interior changes and random Japanese characters I could do without. How about something in Deutsch like: schadenfreude auf ricers  _________________ 1980 931S

i make my car on CS specifications. in first choice i wanted buil an 924RS, but finisched my car are not very lightened. And for a greater look the whells must have the same colors like the stripes. it's my choice and i enjoy it. It's a race car, and i love race cars.
for the japanese i'ts more exotic for me, german is very far from USA, not France and ask to my two kids to change it.
i know with my admission, i must make an admission close with an exterior airduct. _________________ Race is Life |
