Porsche 914-6 Conversion 2.4t With Cis on 2040-cars
Youngsville, North Carolina, United States
|
After a torrid 12 year love affair, it's time to let the old gal go. Got my eyes on a younger, sleeker model! Purchased in 2002 as a bone stock 2.0 car, and spent the subsequent years (and a good chunk of my kids' potential college money) upgrading to where it is at today. The suspension has been gone through and all new, high end parts replaced all the originals...Tarrett Engineering, CFR, Koni to name a few. The engine conversion was done to a high standard, utilizing a bulkhead engine mount, real 914-6 cooling tin, Vellios oil tank, professionally made wiring harness that plugs into the original harness, and original bell crank throttle assembly. The engine is a bone stock 2.4T with CIS injection that runs strong(ask the turboed Miatas at our local AXs!). The external oil cooler keeps oil temps under control on hot days on track. The interior is in great shape, the original dash has absolutely no cracks or blemishes. It has been used as primarily an autocross car, but has spent a fair amount of time on track (VIR, CMP, Rockingham) and has always been a solid performer. It won its class last month in our local autocross! Its also a fun weekend driver, always turns a lot of heads and gets a lot of comments at the gas station! The car looks great and handles amazingly - one ride and you will understand the meaning of the saying "it handles like a go-kart". Engine: 1973.5 2.4T with CIS. - Pressure fed tensioners -1-1/2” headers – Triad Muffler – Magnacore Wires -Bulkhead Motor Mount – Aftermarket Vellios style oil tank, stock 914-6 filter console and filler neck/dipstick. Mocal external oil cooler
Transmission: Rebuilt by Richard at Blue Sky Motorsports. Flipped 3rd and 5th gears and replaced 4th gear with an S gear to yield A-F-KA-S-Z ratios. Great autocross gearing!!
Brakes: Front- Custom billet hubs that allow the use of a vented rotor from an SC. Rebuilt M Calipers, cooling ducts built into the backing plates. Rear – stock rebuilt calipers(with functioning e-brake), stock rotors, 19 mm master cylinder/ Master Cylinder brace (to firm up pedal feel) Suspension: Rear – factory sway bar, Delrin bushings, Koni SA shocks(yellows) with adjustable coil overs and 200 LB springs. Front- Polyurethane bushings, de-cambered ball joints (allows 0.5 more degrees camber), Tarrett Engineering sway bar, Tarrett engineering Monoball strut mounts (camber plates), 21 MM hollow torsion bars, turbo tie rods, Koni SA shocks(yellows) Interior: Rebuilt pedal cluster, Aluminum pedal covers, dead pedal, fuse box replaced with modern blade type fusebox, “Engman” chassis stiffening kit installed, Cobra racing seats (both are currently fixed in position, driver’s seat mount may require modification for you to fit) 1-1/2” 0.120 wall rollbar., new carpet on floor, dynamat and felt on rear firewall, Momo steering wheel and custom billet spacer, Momo aluminum shift knob, 5 pt. harnesses (out of date for track use), 911 tachometer (for -6) Thanks for looking, there are more pictures available - please request via email.

Petrolicious studies the purity of a Porsche 911 2.7 RS
Thu, 17 Oct 2013Water-cooled Porsches are superior to the old, air-cooled models. This really isn't up for debate, despite the mob of Porsche purists, with pitchforks and torches in hand, currently descending on the Autoblog offices. Water-cooled models are more powerful and easier to live with, two factors that make modern Porsches just so darn amazing.
And while we won't hear arguments on anything we've written above, we will say that the old air-cooled models, while not superior, are just, somehow, better. They sound better - a lot better. They're simple, elemental and wildly entertaining things, that just beg for more and more. They rev in a way that forces drivers to work to unlock their power, rather than just push their right foot down. Part of the appeal of air-cooled Porsches, in addition to what we just listed, are the gorgeous cars they're slotted into, like the subject of the latest video from Petrolicious.
Starring a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, this video is a bit shorter than recent ones, but it's no less exciting. This 911, complete with it's sweet-sounding exhaust is the kind of simple, entertaining thing we can watch over and over. Scroll down for the full video.
Amelia Island 2013: Porsche 911 swarms the field marking 50 years of rear-engine goodness
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Perhaps one of the most iconic sports cars in the world, it was no surprise that the Porsche 911 showed up in numbers to the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. Although the original 911 launched 50 years ago, the original and current models are instantly recognizable as 911s, and since the 911 has a storied racing background, there were probably just as many racing versions of the coupe as there were street-legal versions.
As the show's 2013 honoree, one of the prime racing examples was a 1970 Porsche 911 S raced by Sam Posey. There were so many cars in attendance, we didn't know where to look, but a 1985 911 Speedster concept and a Porsche-owned, rally-ready 911 Type 953 were definitely among the more impressive standouts. As an added bonus, Jacksonville-based Brumos Porsche had many of its classic racecars on display including a beautiful 959.
Watch the incredibly complicated operation of Porsche's new targa roof
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Despite Porsche having claimed the name, targa tops are nothing new. In addition to the semi-roofless version of the 911, plenty of cars in the past have used removable roof panels - the new Corvette Stingray has one (as have prior generations), and this type of open-air experience has been available on past vehicles like the Pontiac Solstice Coupe and Honda Civic del Sol.
But when Porsche took the top off its brand new 911 Targa here at the Detroit Auto Show, it was indeed cause for pause. Simply put, this is one of the most complicated and intricate electronic roof panel removal techniques we've ever seen, save perhaps, for the setup found on the Japanese-market Civic del Sol from the 1990s.
We won't spoil the video for you, but basically, rather than just the roof panel coming off, the entire rear glass area lifts away the body in order for the small section over the passenger compartment to slide back. This has to be incredibly expensive to repair once it inevitably breaks. And we highly doubt you'll be able to operate this mechanism at any speed.
