Here is another of my 914-6 that I did and added some extra photos that I took.
One of the women in the picture is my wife(please no bad jokes) the other is a friend from work.
I shot this with my small DIG camera.
I will add more if no one objects.
Hey what can I say I like 914's

Shoo-wee! Nice on all counts -
BTW, I like the way the wheels fill the flares on the rear, I'm trying to find a set for mine with that offset.

The rims on the picture with the camera on the rear trunk lid are OZ rims which I hate but are good for the track they are 9x16 all around. My Fuchs are 8 & 9 x 15 for the street.

First I want to thank you all for the compliments, I have a lot more photos and I don't want to bore anyone.
As I mentioned before 914's are it.
My wife thinks that I am whacked because she see me trying to climb into my 914 and she laughs because I'm 6'2". But my daughters love the way it sounds.
thanks again and here are some more.

Posted by: Quilmes Feb 3 2005, 05:15 PM
The tires are GT Dunlop Qualifiers, 245 & 265. They are okay for the street.
For the track I like to use Victoracer and Hoosier vintaged. I used too get my Hoosier's free since one of my friends we go buy a set test them at Daytona and say " Nope no good give me another set"
And Bob Woodman would hold them for me. I would use for 1/2 a year.

Tila was actually on that original Ted Nuggent reality show on Spike(I think) 2003. I thought for sure she would last til the end, but got kicked off cause she was too damn hot. And by the way, so is Ted's wife...DAMN!
They have her running around in a yellow thong trying to catch pigs. She had a layout in Playboy as well. Not too hard to find pics of her.

Brent did you get that engine?? Can we say V-10 914 class?
Posted by: Quilmes Feb 3 2005, 06:49 PM
Doug: I don't know if I will be going to Daytona, I have my media pass from work, but I am also trying to get ready for Savannah SCCA. I need to re-new my license.
I might go Saturday.
Yes the spindles are raised and reinforced, the shock towers are set 3/4 of an inch inward and the tank had to be shortened.
Originally I had the oil lines going thru the tank, now the go in thru the heater channels.
I got rid of the Mocal front oil cooler, the angle was not working for me at Sebring I would see 270ํ', so I got a 944T intercooler and modified it to work with the oil fittings, it really works and for the street I have a pair of fans to help in traffic. I am still sorting out the chassis for the track, but boy is it fun to play with the big Dogs at Sebring.
You should see the faces of the Vipers and 360 drivers when I keep up with them on the back straight , the only thing is I can not go as deep into 17 and the hair pin as they do and at Bishop bend I was trying to keep up with a GT3rs < Big Mistake> 34yrs of suspension tuning in their favor, it get's loose big times. I guess I don’t want to test the metal against the wall.
I am currently building another 6 to do vintage and maybe EP/GT3. I will have less fear in that one.
Maybe I will see you there.
Thanks

I liked the added power your bumper has.

I am using a master cyl from a MBenz 23mm, it seems to work fine. Firm pedal, but after a few hours at the track, my knee will be a bit sore. ( I think it’s age)
Attached or some images from cable hand brakes that I got from Armando’s web page.
My 914 had cable hand brake with 911 rear shoes, but the original hand brake lever was on my left and with the race seat I could not get my hand in their. I also initially wanted to participate in Vintage/SCCA Rallys with my car, I looked into moving the cable to the middle of the car as done originally in the 70’s but I would need to cut the center make room for the cable pulley get longer cables for the left side, weld a plate to the fire wall so it would not flex when begin pulled.
To install a Hydraulic hand brake I don’t need to add extra cable lines or make room for the new brake cable to run into the center of the fire wall., Just a weld two small tabs, and rout it to my proportion valve.
There is a difference between a line locker like the drag people use to lock up the fronts and a hydraulic hand brake to leave your car parked or slide it into position as one approaches a blind 120degree turn on .
I will also attach some hydraulic one and those used by modern day rally cars.
Thanks.

Thank you for the compliment. Actually thanks to all of you who enjoy the photos as much as I do.
I sent a book of B&W photos that was giving to me at Porsche by Klaus Parr to Glenn Stazak ( Very nice person, saw him at Daytona) to look at, and then I started seeing the same photos on the web.
Armando's page, Glenn, and a few others.
Jon Lowe ( GT Page) also was kind enough to put some of my photos on his site great guy with tremendous race history. Yenko Corvair race car.
I also have vintage race footage of the Targa Florio 914-6 with Vic Elford showing the track, Video from the 94 Tour de Auto when the Orange 914-6 came in second over all with Jurgen Barth driving the wheels off the car.
I will keep adding more or just start a new section.

These are the most professional photos that I have enjoyed on this forum and this is why we have so many people here to enjoy the 914.

Here is one of Scalli car at Daytona in 03, next to a 917.

do the germans own any ugly 914's??
even when i was at the 914 international meet a few years ago in France, I didn't see any beat-up teeners like we have here (like I have in my garage )
you do take some great pictures.....film camera or high end digital if you don't mind me asking??

I am still waiting for my D70 to come in, I have been using film that's why the quality of my scans are not that good.
I have a small Konica 5meg. Which I used for the first image on this thread.
To get the image of the car in movement or going at speed. You have to use a slow shutter speed. and a steady base for the camera not to shake.
Example the photo of my car at night side-shot I think I shot it at 1/8th or 1sec duration and I must have been driving about 10-15mph at the most. It will give the image of a car really going fast since the car is in focus and the background is blurred.
Now that I have a place for my photos, I will due more for the 914club.
Thanks Thanks Thanks:beer2:Posted by: Gustl Feb 4 2005, 06:05 PM

Ok, that pic with the 914 & 917 is just too cool! Its funny how Prosche poses the lemons next to the beasts. Like the Boxster and the 550.

martin,
thanks for all the info AND fotos!! they really are great, especially the 914-6 club fotos, they truely are epic. i've been seeing them around the web but didn't know they were yours. that must have been an awesome event. i'd be interested to hear the circumstances surrounding that club meet, if you don't mind talking about it. when and where, do they meet often? when is the next? so we can plan a 914club group tour to germany!!
hey, maybe when carl gets his lotus, we can get together again if he is up to it.

Are you going to go to the 914 International in Essen? June 18/19 I think - I intend to go to that.
We are also taking the /6 to the Nurburgring afterwards
This thread is spectacular - we should have a gallery of these photos

Posted by: db9146 Feb 5 2005, 09:34 PM
Quilmes,
I have to add my thanks to all the others here that have really enjoyed your photos today/tonight. I have been pouring over them for the last couple of hours looking at as much of the detail as possible. These are great and much appreciated!!!!!
We are in Orlando tonight on vacation and heading back home tomorrow. I wish I could have been able to come by and meet you while in town.
Thanks for the several new "desktops" for my laptop!!

The meeting in Essen should be the largest 914 meeting in Europe. It's called the "International 914 Meeting" and happens every year in another country. If I remember correctly it was in Great Britain 2003, The Netherlands 2004 and Germany 2005.
Due to the fact that 3 original 916s are located in Germany, I'm pretty sure that at least one of them shows up at Essen.

the meeting is organized by the so called http://www.914-club.de/
at the light blue box there are links for german AND english invitation/booking confirmation
unfortunately there is very little general information
maybe you could ask Jeroen to watch the homepage from the http://www.porsche-914-club-holland.nl/nieuws/index.htm - they also have infos, but I can't read dutch
Posted by: kenporacer Feb 6 2005, 10:59 AM

I am happy that you like the photos.
Feb 18-20 Citrus PCA region will be holding a drivers event. I think it's $190 for the weekend.
This is a great chance to take out your Porsche 914 to the track. I might be there if I am not all tracked out from the week before.
Also I might be going to Road Atlanta for a PCA driver event, If so keep in contact and you can come out for a couple laps.
Thanks
