Porsche 924

dimanche 9 octobre 2011 je commence le demontage et oh que de surprise.

poor quality…

This is a short featuring the 924. the 924 was original conceptualized for vw by porsche. vw wanted a car that could get them into the mid priced sports car field so they farmed out the design to Stuttgart Porsche. When economic hardships caused vw to lose faith in the project Porsche stepped in and bought the designs back for what some sources say was close to 60 million dollars. The cars unorthadox layout with its front engined rear trans design gave the 924 near perfect weight distribution and impeccable handling. The motor was a non interference example that was designed for the car but was slated for multiple uses. One being the vw lt van and the other the audi 100. when the automotive press got wind of the 924 sharing its motor with a van they had a field day and the porsche purists that were already up in arms about the front engine layout turned away from the 924. Years later the 924 was rumored to possibly receive an inline 6 cyl from the audi lineup. It never came to fruition and the 924 was replaced in the US market with the 944. the 924 was still available as the 924s. this was a 924 with the interference 2.5 liter motor from the 944 and the held over 924 interior instead of the very sought after later dash from the 85.5 and later 944. the 924 you see here has stock exhaust with the rear box bypassed.

Preview of sound mod I’ve made for all Porsches with Inline-4 engine 2.5l or 2.7l, replacing RUF RTurbo. See NightBird’s Mods for more informations. Not yet available for download, only by PM. See www.nightbird-mods.vacau.com for more informations

My engine is making a weird noise

This is what a stock Porsche 924S sounds like with the catalytic converter and pipe removed. First rev is around 2200RPM and second is 3000RPM.
