After seeing Bretts post this morning on his project car (which is pretty darn cool), I was wondering what point is the car no longer a "914"
Is the line crossed when a different make of motor is put in?? almost any German motor is okay in my book To you is an Audi motor okay but not a Subaru? sorry, I cannot do the Suby, it's just "wrong" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) What about the chassis? For PCA racing, I believe one must have the firewalls and the longs... As much as I like the full tube frame cars, they are no longer a 914, just an image of one..... Suspension: Would swapping to modern P-car parts be okay? such as using the suspension from Boxster, I like the idea, but not allowed in PCA except X or fun runs I think What about all new and non-P-car designed suspension? |

I think a 914 tub with the bottom rusted out would fit on this one pretty nicely: E-Bay Euro "Supercar" Wouldn't be much Porsche there, but would look line one, and it sure would be fun. |
