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 acquires Kyalami race track at auction

Mon, 28 Jul 2014

With more victories under its belt than any other manufacturer, you could say, in a figurative sense at least, that Porsche owns countless numbers of race tracks around the world. But here we're not talking about figuratively owning a track - we're talking about literally buying one. And Porsche has just bought Kyalami.
Kylamai, for those unfamiliar, is a grand prix circuit near Johannesburg in South Africa. Between 1967 and 1985, and again in '92 and '93, it was home to the South African Grand Prix, and has since hosted a variety of local and lower-level international races, but apparently fell on hard times. As a result, the track's owners - listed as Universal Property Professionals - put it up for auction. Bidders had to deposit four million Rand (about $380k) to participate, but after just 50 seconds, the auction was over.
The winning bid was placed - via telephone from the local press launch for the Macan - by Porsche South Africa CEO Toby Venter, who bid a reported 205 million rand (about $19.5 million) to take over the complex. The German automaker's South African division reportedly intends to keep the track open for racing, but could also be expected to use the facility for testing, customer track days and such moving forward.

Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year

Thu, 14 Nov 2013

Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).

Porsche Cayman gets a new face

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

We've already seen photos of the facelifted Porsche Boxster out testing, but we're now seeing these same changes making their way onto the hardtop Cayman coupe. Cosmetically, the next round of Porsche's smallest sports cars isn't vastly different, with redesigned headlamps, LED running lights (like its big brother, the 911), and new taillamps that actually aren't visible on the prototype seen here.
The big news for the updated Boxster/Cayman range is the long-rumored four-cylinder engine. Recent reports suggest we could see four-pots with displacements of 1.6, 2.0, or 2.5 liters, and with output ratings as high as 360 horsepower. Of course, these new four-cylinder mills would be both turbocharged and direct-injected.
It's unclear whether or not the six-cylinder engine range will also be updated when this new Cayman comes to market. In any case, we expect to see it bow in the relatively near future. Stay tuned.
