My 1986 951
Just thought i would start a thread on my other car since i was getting some questions about it. I am going to be repainting the car and doing some more engine work so it will definitely be faster. The engine bay is going to be all polished and power coated when i am finished so i can't wait.
When i dyno'ed i had a bad #4 ring and later to find out i was leaking oil somewhere so next time i will be prepared. Here are some pics and vids

I am still debating on a color that i am going to repaint. I am either thinking black or some type of red like candy apple red. I have took it to the track once when my clutch was giving out and running lower boost because i didn't get a chance to go to the dyno at the time. I ran a 14.7@100mph that time.

the 944 Turbo was one of my fav cars back in the day.

THe previous owner painted the car like his ass so it has tons of orange peel and the paint is start to chip off. The car being reliable all i could really say about that is i won't use it as a daily driver

I love cars!
I suppose it's similar to the 911's different factory designations such as 930, 993 and 996. That makes more sense why you say 951, but only to die-hard Porsche fans.
