rebuilt engine- 4500 miles ago
a lot of money has been spent by previous owners bringing this car to excellent condition- and you can tell as soon as you see it and drive it
front bumper and hood have several rock chips, overall paint is very nice and thought to be all original
so much has been done ( regarding the engine please see reply from Lindsay racing when I inquired on the details of the engine build- I have receipts/invoices for work done by Lindsay)
Hello,
It was not a stock build, we cross drilled the crank, bored it to 100.5mm and put in Wossner pistons, it has Molnar rods in it.
We did our level I head, new OEM turbo springs. It has our MAX chip set in it and a 4” exhaust. The work was done in 2019.
Regards
the suspension is great, ac blows ice cold, clutch and transmission and engine are flawless and runs very strong, windows, radio , sunroof, lights, door locks etc- everything works as it should
previous write up of 2 previous owners listed below when car was for sale is listed below- the previous owners were the typical OCD Porsche guy :)
This is a rare unmolested Porsche 944 Turbo. It was removed covered from the corner of a garage in Columbus Ohio last year and has since undergone countless hours and thousands of dollars in mechanical and cosmetic restoration. It currently has just over 90k miles on it but it occasionally goes to shows and whatnot so it may rise. It has never been crashed and has its ORIGINAL paint. It has had only 3 owners.
Ancillary systems on this car have been restored or rebuilt to the point that there isn't a single button, knob, dial or gauge that doesn't work properly. It has been converted to 134a (per the factory Porsche procedure) and the air conditioning blows ice cold. The cruise, sunroof, lights, heaters, blowers and bells all work perfectly. All maintenance type items such fluids and oils, timing belts, battery and water pump have been replaced in the last 2000 miles. It has the rare and desirable factory 5R limited slip 5 speed transaxle. The suspension is "Koni Yellow" and brand new.
The only modifications to this car are Autothority Stage 2 chips and a $3000 Billy Boat header back stainless exhaust system which makes the car sound fantastic. I have the factory Blaupunkt radio that works but the modern Parrot radio that is in there now has Bluetooth streaming and sounds much better. No wiring was cut or damaged to install the Parrot, and it can come out in a few minutes for shows. I also have the original chips for the engine DME.
As a Porsche aficionado, perfectionist, club member and capable mechanic, I have personally restored and dealt with every major and minor issue with this car myself. Things that "go wrong" with 944 turbos have been updated or restored to make them more reliable and/or function better while maintaining absolute faith to the factory original appearance and parts. To give you some idea of the level of restoration this car has undergone, I have receipts for more than $8000 spent on it in the last 5000 miles. The cleanliness of this car is shown in the pictures. It is not only clean on top, it is clean underneath and in the wheel wells. I keep it garaged and at a show level detail at all times.
This is the last of the truly original 951's out there and is your chance to buy a rapidly appreciating (per Haggerty price guide) but reliable and fast old Porsche.
1986 Porsche 944 Turbo with OEM optional LSD. Guards red with black interior. The automobile is in great working order. It is turn key. The dashboard is not cracked. The paint shines, but yes it does have minor chips/scuffs. I have had the car for more than 8 years. I have not tracked the car. I do drive it to cars and coffee gatherings and around town. Once listed the car will not be driven. All parts are OEM or better, no junk parts used. In the last 3 years the following has been done. A/C condenser, drier, A/C hoses, and compressor. Radiator and all water hoses. All vacuum hoses including the J boot which connects to AFM. Oil cooler lines. Power steering rack was rebuilt along with the power steering pump and hoses replaced. Master cylinder, rotors, and pads. Tires less than 5 k miles on them. At 100k miles the engine was crated and shipped to Lindseyracing and completely rebuilt. The clutch, torque tube, and LSD were also rebuilt at 100k miles. The clutch, brake, and slave cylinder were also changed at this time. The engine and drivetrain have less than 4K miles on it after rebuild. The DME is from F9 technologies also less than 4K miles on it. The engine rebuild was not to modify the engine, just to put all internals new. The engine was completely rebuilt with OEM or better parts. Crank and camshaft are original it was within specs. Performance upgrades: 4 inch exhaust, dual port waste gate, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, metal blow off valve, Lindsey racing chips, and manual boost controller. OEM sunroof cover included along with original blaupunkt radio. OEM jack, spare tire, and tools in great shape. After market timing and balance belt tension tool included. I’m sure there are other things that I have done to the car over the years.
