944 S2 Repair

[pauly]

Touch wood, I'll never need one. But it's handy to know there's an alternative available, perhaps without the Porsche tax.

In the words of disgraced former Australian tv presenter ,
" Can you guess what it is yet kids ?"

It looks like a big pile of money, what do I win .

[sgl1966]

Another winner !

But your garage can’t be cheap with the bikes etc Pauly.

It's always been one in, one out. But I'm beginning to get the Ducati itch again, the BMW is only 7 months old, but it's too silly fast for the road really.

No worries! Good luck with the build.

Fitted the iron age battle axe .
With half the floor removed need some way to hang rear exhaust and if need be fix to body to prevent gearbox movement . Its as if porsche knew .

[pauly]

Did the mount bolt straight in, or did you have to fit some inserts?

[sgl1966]

It bolts straight to gearbox Pauly with some slightly longer bolts .

[pauly]

Seen one before, but don't remember what it does exactly Simon?

[sgl1966]

It’s only an exhaust hanger from early 924 , which is what I need it for .
But you do have the option to run a support to the body to stop any lateral movement of the gearbox if you wanted to help cv’s .

[pauly]

Ahh right, I remember now. So are there any mounting points already in a 944 shell, so it could be used to locate the gearbox?

[sgl1966]

Another picture , it shows how it bolts to rear of gearbox . There are no mounts to fix to body but easy enough to make a bracket and put a bolt through to secure to body .
