Hi, I am looking at a 914 to buy. I am new to 914's, so I dont know a whole lot about them yet. I am aware of the rust issues (hell hole, etc.) and have checked out the car I'm looking at thoroughly. It looks to be in good condition in that department. However, it will need mechanical work since it has been sitting for a while. I am planning a Subaru swap for drivetrain. For suspension / brakes I am looking for a setup good for a nice handling weekend street and occasional track day car.
My question is: How much money (ballpark) am I looking at to revamp suspension / brakes for a nice handling weekend street and occasional track day car? Thanks in advance for any advice. I appreciate it! |

Before I knew about the hh issue, I bought one that looked pretty good there. Pans were rusted, but figured I could fix that. Then found out it looked good cause someone glassed the hell hole (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
Still made money on that one though. |
