Some more updated pics of my '82 944 on our Spring Drive recently. The one with the lake in the background is Rudyard Lake where Top Gear filmed the episode where they turned their cars into boats.

I think my red 924 turbo will run at about 230 BHP with all the mods

I'm liking all that pipework to and from the intercooler

Did you make it all up yourself?

yes I did , a hell of a job as the 924 is not designed for an intercooler, had to cut half of the front away under the badge panel, also the turbo on the GTS was on the otherside,and the radiator is to big to get pased had to lower and move back a few inches

I am down in Cornwall,the car was beige and mocha brown to start with,but have given the car a full respray in guards red,I have lightened the car, removed the aircon,front lights water bottle,and replaced the bonnet and front wings with fiberglass,removed door windows and motors and am fitting light plastic slide windows,,still very much in the project stage, and needs a new windscreen as it is discoloured round the edge, also have fitted teardrop mirrors and 944 rear bridge spoiler to give it a more modern look
