Hey so

My brakes just feel soft despite all being new. I'm gonna do the 924works disc conversion to rule out the drums being off.

The only things I haven't touched are the master cylinder and the brake booster

At idle pumping the brakes make the engine rev so I'm guessing the membrane is leaking.

I got no brake fluid leaks.

I looked around and apparently 944 master cylinders can be found new and fit easily, but I have an early car with the brake light switch on the master cylinder, so I might just rebuild it.

But I can't find any affordable new brake booster. Is there no VAG compatible parts?

Hello

My Porsche 924 comes with hard discs on the front (non-vented) and the disc is also the hub. Drums on the rear as well.

I've got a machinist friend and I'm gonna ask him to turn the front hub/disc into a hub, and same for the drum to allow me to upgrade the brakes.

Because the bolt pattern is quite unique (4x108), I'd like to have him drill an additional bolt pattern on the hubs.

Can I have two bolt patterns on the same hub or is it unsafe? If there's enough room it's fine no?

The car ran great last week, but someone wouldn't start tonight.

I tested for spark, it has spark, even jumped the ignition coil so that it would get 12v from the battery

I put starter fluid through the vacuum line port above the fifth injector

I tested compression (125psi on cyl 1, but engine is cold)

I hit the K-Jet with a wooden hammer, and I can tell fuel is getting in there by moving the sensor plate

Fuel pump is priming and there's fuel in the fuel tank

Timing is all good, checked crankshaft, camshaft, and rotor all on time

Hello

I'm preparing an EFI conversion for my 924 which has no sensors at all. I've taken courses about EFI tuning and I believe I'm pretty well versed to manage the conversion.

Only issue is, where do you get your sensors? Has anyone ever done an EFI conversion with the ECU EMU classic and has a list of all the core sensors (ckp+cmp, tps, map, iat, etc...)

Hello, I've got an old 924 I restored. All brakes (drum internals, callipers, brake lines, discs and pads) are new and rebuilt. The only thing I haven't touched are the hard brake lines, master cylinder, and brake booster.

At idle, pressing several times on the brakes raise the idle. Pedal is kinda soft even though it's not leaking brake fluid (it's on the max) and a shop flushed the brakes for me.

Could the one way check valve be the culprit (intake manifold to brake booster)?

Hello, I'm new to this but I'm reading Julian Edgar's book on aerodynamics.

Is there any benefits from making the underbody of a car with dimples? The diffuser etc?

Yo wassup guys, so all and all, I'm thinking of pulling out my engine to properly clean it and fix it (new headgasket, and I got a leaking freeze plug) before doing an EFI conversion.

But then I'm thinking, might as well just get a decent 1.8t.

I know it's been done before, I'd just like to know:

- difficult to get a compatible clutch assembly? I have the 924 2.0l NA with the five speed gearbox

- I'll need custom engine mounts as well innit

- the cross member will be in the way, so I need a custom oil pan?

I'm probably missing something

Hello, I would like to build an flat under body to

1. Make the aero better

2. Protect the engine from rocks coming from beneath

I thought about getting big sheets of aluminium but I'm seeing more people are doing it with sheets of plywood?

What if I got a cheap ping pong table instead?

It's for a 924

Bonjour,

Est-ce que quelqu'un aurait des tips pour trouver des sièges de voiture type sport mais avec un look un peu vintage?

J'ai une 924 et l'intérieur est mort donc je cherche des sièges de remplacement.

Idéalement un peu plus léger et baquet, mais sans perdre le look d'époque

Je sais que Recaro a une gamme vintage, mais les sièges qui coûtent plus chers que la voiture c'est chaud.

Même sur Leboncoin je trouve que c'est un peu cher

Je sais pas si y a moyen d'alléger les sièges si je les amène à un sellier (les sièges pèsent vraiment lourd et il manque toute la garniture alors j'imagine pas d'origine)

Hello

Is it possible to upgrade the steering rack with a power steering rack or do I just have to hit the gym more?

My steering rack is dead so I'm wondering if it's possible
