Default My '89 moderinization thread

Wheels: refurbished Speedline Alessio's, 18x8.5, 18x10, new SO4's (yes I really like them). '94 965 13" rotors with spaced S4 calipers, G2 painted, notched Powerstop street pads, fresh fluid.

Car was painted in December but lost my turbocharger due to a stuck aftermarket BOV, so went forward with a top-end rebuild since I was in there. Paint color-sanding and polishing will have to wait.

Started the paint in December since my painter announced that he was moving, so my interior is still 70% complete. Sheez, but still fun

Is this the same Mark that used to race 928's?

That red on a black car is such a fantastic color choice. Love the Can-Can seats and piping on the dash/console!

thinking about selling the whole interior now...not that I really like how it turned out, but I'd do it juuuuuust slightly differently for the "ultimate" 951 interior. Credit to Robert Budd for the pre-sewn items.

Lart's willing to forgive you for your past affiliations with the 928 provided you make a
video showing a massive bomb going off in the cockpit - and the ensuing conflagration.
