selling my 1994 Porsche 968, i have owned the car since 2007 and have loved every minute of it. Selling because I simply do not use it enough. My friend and I were talking and I decided the money from it could much better be used than the car sitting in the garage. The car has approximately 145,000 miles on it. The odometer gear did break (and has been replaced) but for while I had to keep track of miles by hand. The car passed emissions with flying colors last month as well as inspection. If you are turned off by it looking like a "race car" be sure to let me know. i can easily put the stock seats back in and the door numbers are stickers and come right off. Do not think of this as a dedicated track car. but more so a street car that has racing seats in it. 

It has Boxster 17" wheels with sticky Hankook rs3's 225 front 255 rear tires on it. i have the original 16"s with tires that you can have as well. the clutch and dual mass flywheel were replaced in 2008. I run Brad Penn 20w50 oil religiously. Has the factory limited slip diff, as well as the 10 speaker sound system (all speakers have been upgraded). Lindsey Racing short shift kit and Momo shift knob. The wheels are plasti-dipped black, if you do not know about plastidip its a rubber coating that just peels off, they are factory silver underneath. 

The car slowly over the years became more track oriented. total track days "DE's" is 6. some of the more track oriented mods are: 
-driver and passenger racing seats (have original power grey seats)
-Sparco 5 point harnesses (original 3 point seat belts still installed)
-928 S4 front brakes 
-Porterfield r4-s brake pads all around
-more aggressive brake bias valve, forget the valve number but its the usual upgrade. 
-aftermarket Koni yellow struts all around
-coil over kit with 300# springs, lowered
-custom Dual setrab oil cooler, car now holds 10 quarts of oil
-Sparco steering wheel (brand new, not a used one)
-AEM Digital oil temp gauge 
-crank scraper 
-oil pan baffle 
-rear seat delete with custom fiberglass replacement (have orginial rear seats as well)
-custom one off 3d-printed velocity stacks for the well known "air box mod" holes. 
-upper chasis brace
-design one racing lower chassis brace
-design one racing "roll cage" with the diagonal brace and harness bar. 
-RS barn cat back exhaust
-RS barn stage 1 chip

Decided to do rod bearings, and one thing led to another and the whole motor was apart. I have a full build sheet i will attach in the pictures. stock build, besides a couple of things:
-4 angle valve job and fully rebuild head
-crank scraper
-oil pan baffle welded in
-intake manifold hot tanked and bead blasted, then powder coated
-all of the balance shaft bushings and oil pump drive gear replaced
-variocam pads and chain replaced
-head was shaved, thus compression has been increased
-Wide Fire head gasket

the bad:
-paint is not that good, always planned on a paint job "one day"
-dash is cracked (have a dash cover on it)

-couple places where the clear coat has started to chip (rear bumper, sunroof)

-motorcycle fell into the passenger door and it was repainted poorly

-Drivers door was keyed and repainted so/so



probably forgetting some stuff, will add anything else i remember. 


In the picture of the cylinder head, the spot that is corroded was ground out by the machinist and new aluminum was welded in, and then the head was resurfaced. 


On Aug-27-14 at 21:30:35 PDT, seller added the following information:

It also has MO30 front and rear sway bars with Derlin bushings. 

again, as if i think of anything else i will be sure to add it.

Porsche spotted testing next-gen Panamera in the snow

Thu, Jan 22 2015

It's winter testing season in northern Sweden, and the latest spy shots our paparazzi on the ground have brought us is the upcoming Porsche Panamera testing in the cold and snow. The upcoming new four-door Porsche, spied wearing only minimal camouflage, appears to have a more elegant and sloping roofline than the existing model. Other details like the lights, mirrors and grille openings look fairly consistent with what we've been seeing on Porsche's other models as they've trickled out. Based on the new MSB platform, the new Panamera is set to share its underpinnings with the next Bentley Continental and possibly an Audi variant as well – though the prospect of a Lamborghini version to follow the Estoque concept seems to be off the table. The new platform will, however, make the new Panamera lighter than the current model. A new range of V6 and V8 engines are expected to provide motivation, driving the rear wheels or all four, along with the available e-hybrid system. Porsche's first four-door sedan was introduced in 2009 and underwent a facelift in 2013, so the all-new second-generation model should arrive sometime later this year or next as a 2017 model. This new model could provide the impetus for Porsche to put the Sport Turismo shooting brake version into production as well, and maybe – just maybe – a two-door coupe and possible convertible versions to follow in the footsteps of the 928.

Magnus Walker turbocharges his love for the Porsche 911

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

He's had his fill of early, long-hood Porsche 911s - he owns at least one from each model year, from 1964 to 1973 - so Magnus Walker, a fanatic of the Stuttgart, Germany-based automaker, recently set his sights on the early Porsche 930, as documented by this XCAR video called 'Turbo Fever.' Let us translate: pretty soon Walker will own all of the earliest, non-intercooled 911 Turbos - at least one from each model year, starting at 1975 and ending at 1977 (though the 1975 911 Turbo Carrera never officially was imported to the US by Porsche, so it'll be tougher to find one Stateside).
Any Porsche enthusiast can tell you why they love their car, and it often comes down to the small details that differentiate one model year from another. One of many examples is the mid-'80s 928. They look similar, but the basic difference between a 1984 Porsche 928 S and a 1985 928 S (US-spec) is two camshafts and 54 horsepower, though each car's V8 has its own pros and cons. We'll let Magnus Walker tell you all about the 930 and what makes the first three years special, as he's becoming quite the expert on early, air-cooled 911s. When the nearly 15-minute mini-documentary was filmed, which you can view below, he already had added four early 930s to his collection!

Porsche 911 Carrera 4S named Motor Trend Best Driver's Car [w/video]

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Motor Trend has named the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S its best driver's car for 2013. The annual
competition for the title included some of the best performance cars that have gone on sale in the past year. The new C4S follows the 2012 Best Driver's Car award winner, a two-wheel-drive Carrera S.
Determining the winner of the coveted title isn't easy. Each vehicle is pushed through Motor Trend's normal battery of instrumented tests. Editors then spend time with each car over a 500-mile tour of mixed conditions before a final batch of testing at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, with pro racer Randy Pobst at the wheel.
