turboman808
I'm not sure what is going on with my car. I was still having trouble starting it but the battery is fine. I tunred on all my lights and they are really bright. I'm gonna clean the connectors and see what that does. Doesn't make sense blink.gif

I took a few pictures I will post em tomorrow when I get a chance!



Overall it was a really fun day though.

I was really pushing her coming home tongiht. I was taking some of the bends on the Turnpike and 95 at speeds I best not admit to. Whats scary is I think I could have gone alot faster!!!
rmital
....great idea Aaron going to the Whiskey Cafe's car show. The short ride from the garage to the show was fun...hopefully more fun runs in the future.

It's great seeing the teeners on a semi-regular basis.

Lets really start pushing Aaron's progress.....he's needing a trans...right?

I'll try to make the next one. Nice turn out of cars there?

Sorry I missed you guys, I just got back from vacation today. Looks liek a good turnout. I really hope to meet you guys down there with my 911 before the summer is over.

Turboman, check all of your grounds. Make sure that the heavy strap to the trans is clean and tight. Same with the battery to chassis.
On my old turbo car, I found that a separate relay solved the problem once and for all.

im gonna try and install my stiffening kit this week, then continue stripping the car to metal....ive decided ill try and paint the car myself..its gonna be ugly.but at least one color

I have a tow bar setup. You could get the brackets from Dave Lee or drill holes like I did and then use my stuff to flat tow.

leo that sounds like a pretty good idea...where do i need to drill the holes?
ChrisFoley
I hope you guys are thinking about a road trip on the 15th up to Manchester CT for the Grand Opening of my new shop. It's not too far! smile.gif
Leo Imperial
Three holes in the bottom of the front pan.

Racer Chris - That sounds like a good idea. Post the details and start a thread.
i love porsche
ill be on my way to the outerbanks in NC on the 15th...too bad, id love to see it

leo, do you have spacing measurements for the 3 holes?
Dominic L
Damn! sad.gif Vince, his son Austin, and I were there but later. DOH! I gotta read this forum more often!!I thought i saw Nathan's car pulling out when we arrived. Nice show there @ the whiskey. Always a good turnout.

Aaron, I have a trailer. Need push power to get the car up on it as I have no winch. I could help you move the car as long as I'm not working or AXing. Or if you can get a tow vehicle and someone who can drive with a trailer, you could borrow it. Again as long as i don't need it for AX. I'm using it this Sunday to tow the teener to Somerville to race with MSNE. Much rather have AC for the long drives! Pm me with your email and I'll reply with my cell # and we could work something out. Also, @ the father's day AX I noticed that you need front struts badly on your 944. Your right front wheel was bouncing like crazy over the bumps. boldblue.gif

turboman808
Got my new/used wheels this morning. The rear is really wide but I think I can make em fit smash.gif
Once I have the wheels fitting right I will get the fenders fixed.

Also ordered wevo mounts finaly. Hopefully will get them by monday. Need to get that thing shifting right.


Hey leo where did you get the fiberglass rockers? I haven't been able to find these.
