1988, Alpine White. Engine is pretty close to stock, besides APE stage 2 chipset and restrictor for 14 psi of boost. Plenty for now. I added braided stainless fuel and other lines here and there. Redid the intercooler ducting and added nose vents and a Kokeln Racing GTR front end.

Konis all around, Weltmeister springs, billet spring hats, running track/street alignment and camber settings. Yokohamas on stock 16" turbo phone dials.

Solid billet trans mount, 4 point roll bar (bolted but with welded mount plates) Corbeau seats and Crow harnesses. Momo wheel and the interior is pretty well gutted, no sound deadening, just lightweight Olefin carpet poorly installed by me. I replaced the console with a simple aluminum switch and gauge panel.

Stainless braided brake lines, Hawk pads, ATE blue fluid.

Plenty car for my ability level.

nice, but why did you use this front end?

My original front end was the victim of multiple parking curb impacts and had a lot of repairs, etc. I had installed a splitter I made which worked well until it also got damaged.

I decided to switch to this one because I like the look (I know many do not, but I do), and the downforce it makes, but even more is the large increase in cooling air flow. Where I live, it can get up to 110 degrees Farehheit in the summer, and everything helps.

I plan to add a 924 GTR rear spoiler at some point, but the new 924 has been my focus lately.

I also want to add a Lindsey Racing 3x oil cooler at some point in the future.

Interesting look. It is nice to see you have 16" phonedials instead of some horrendous 18 - 19" tractor wheels.

hey if you like it its fine everybody gave me shit when i had a similar one and i dont think it produces any downforce...perhaps limits the amount of uplift and creates some extra drag...it all depends on how you set the car.

Thanks, morghen. I knew this might ne a tough crowd regarding the look of the car. But I modified according to my tastes and needs.

I do like the factory look as well, and don't worry, my 924 will be all original within my budget and abilities.

I always liked the "ORCA" and "FLIPPER" race cars by Kokelin Racing. Hence the nose piece.

just needs to be colour matched... it would definitely suit a lemans boxed rear end.
so are those driving lights down low or replacement headlights??
