1970 Porsche 914 -$7,500
#4702900610

Back up for sale...

I am looking to sell my '70 Porsche 914 that I purchased in 2007 from Chogokin off of 914world.com. I have converted the car from the original 1.7 liter motor to a Subaru 2.2 liter motor with turbo as well as added a full aluminum radiator/fan setup. The conversion was performed with products from Renegade Hybrids, http://www.renegadehybrids.com/, including the Subaru Conversion Kit and their Complete Cooling System. Since conversion completion approximately 15k miles have been driven. The car drives and rides great!

The car was repainted in 2009, and is painted a 1975 original Porsche color, Palma Green Metallic.

The car has 916 style fiberglass front and rear bumpers. The rear bumper has been fiber glassed to the body. Front bumper could use a respray.

No heat and no air conditioning. All new shifter bushings from the shifter to the trans. New front and rear brake rotors (not installed, but included with sale), new rubber and hard brake lines, new transmission mounts, new oil pan with welded oil drain, new intercooler and revised intercooler piping, new rear European style front side markers and rear taillights, new engine thermostat, headgaskets, head bolts, and timing belt.

Thanks for looking!

i expected lots of comments - since there are none - i will be the first. while i am not a fan of 916 bumpers and few are fans of kyb shocks - i like this car a lot : )
is that a renegade cradle in there? wanted to clarify. while not a fan of leaks : ) gotta love turbo, though bypassing coolant sensors probably not the best idea and should be corrected so ecu gets the signals it needs. good luck with the sale! jim

I have never been a fan really of the bumpers either. I had always planned to change back to steel.

It is the Renegade cradle and radiator kit, along with the other parts that come with their Basic Subaru Conversion.

As far a the Idle Air Control Valve, the coolant lines have been replaced and reconnected. I had a leak in one of the lines a while ago and had to reroute them to ensure a closed loop cooling system. The throttle body bypass is a pretty standard practice for Subarus in areas where you dont need to worry about the throttle body freezing up.

Thanks for the comment either way!

Saw this for sale on CL, beautiful!

Thanks for for the kind words!!

bump for a price drop.... $7,200

is that 132 hp with turbo - or prior to instal of turbo?

again, good luck with sale.

renegade cooling system is $1000+-, conversion stuff $2000+-, suby engine and turbo goodies $1500+- (guess) - that is already $4500+- in stuff.

That is post turbo, measured at the wheels. For reference a stock Subaru STI makes 196 HP to the wheels on the same dyno.

Thanks again!

bump for a price drop... open to any offers also.

The car looks great, does the stock shift linkage still fit on this car?

The shift bar did have to be modified to fit with the Renegade cradle. I believe the cradle and everything moves the transmission forward slightly, so the bar was modified and shortened.

I finally reinstalled the carpet, so updated interior shots will be added.

Thanks!

bump it up... still for sale.

And YouTube videos link added for some walk-arounds and a few quick driving videos...

a curiosity bump : )

at what rpm does the turbo kick in?
i assume an originally non turbo engine can handle up to 7psi - all day long?

thanks
jim

Such a nice car!

I have a new affinity and appreciation for water pumping teeners.

Love that paint!

Full boost starts around 2500 rpm. It begins to kick in pretty early so even though before full boost is reached, its already moving its self along...

The engine is running on the stock ecu with no tuning, so off boost it will run just as well as it would stock. With the turbo and only 7 psi of boost, it still runs like a stock turbo would under boost. The larger fuel pump causes a slight bump in fuel pressure from the increased output and the MAF is able to adjust the fuel enough for the increase of air flow. Also, I always use premium gas and never had any issues with knocking or predetonation.

I can try and make a video of the gauges during a normal 2nd or 3rd gear pull to show the "power curve" while driving...

Thanks BajaXJ92! Love the paint color also, it was always one of my favorite, just trying to keep it clean and simple on the exterior.

Bump... Still for sale, I have been reworking a few things on the motor to clean things up and simplify the turbo routing. Swapping from air to air intercooler to an air to water setup.

Suprized this has not sold. It's like the only Subaru conversion for sale on the net.

has the car sold yet?

The car has not sold, but is currently of the market...

Working on it has resparked my interest.

You meen off the market?

Yes, off the market. That's what I get for typing a reply with my phone...

Car is back up for sale. Looking to move on to a new project.

Whats the new price

Price listed in the ad is $7,500.

Always open to reasonable offers.

Pm was sent

Bump.

Lots of additional pictures added. Let me know if you want to see anything specific.

Sure looks like those outer long panels are riveted on.

What's hiding underneath?

Not sure of the rivets, originally bought the car off of Chogokin on here and I know he said there was some rust repair in the hell hole area. Either way, they are solid and fully welded.

Sale pending payment.
