I normally don't use 6th much, but on a recent 200 mile highway trip, I used it the whole way. I got 28MPG, according to the car's computer. :) So there's one reason to use it.

I agree, no problem at all with early cars. My build date is 9/94. It's a good "while you're in there" thing when replacing the leaky rack.:banghead:

Hi guys,
I'm visiting from the 993 area. I've come across a set of 914 manuals that include the parts catalog and the 914/6 addendum. They are not in collectible concourse condition, a little...

I may be wrong on this, but I thought the later cars had some sort of fiber/digital network that wasn't compatible with our cars. Can anyone confirm that this radio will or won't install in the 993?...

You're probably hearing the emissions air pump. On cold starts, it injects air into the exhaust stream to reduce emissions. It doesn't pump on warm starts.

Hi guys,

I finally got around to sending a set of Bischoffs to Darin (FisterD). He welded in 2" bypasses, and did a really nice job at a reasonable price - check out the pictures of the welds.

You're talking apples and oranges then. Not sure what the point of talking about your car in this thread is. Most cars are stock/slightly modified.

Yes, you are....

My 993's got around 100K now, and it's valuable to me. But we've got to be realistic - High miles kill value, and low miles kill the fun of ownership. A (stock-ish) '95 993...
