Porsche 924

Want a retro Porsche that won’t blow your budget, but will still make you smile? If so, then perhaps look into a 1987 Porsche 924S and watch this quick review of one. First Gear Media, LLC.

Finally got fuel pumping from the fuel tank to the engine!

Turns out that the injectors I bought were too tall and they caused the fuel rail to stick up too far, blocking the way of the charge (intake) tube. We drilled out the injector cups and filed the tips down so that the injectors would sit lower into the head and voila, problem solved.

Making a slight modification to the stock in-tank fuel pump

Moved the Porsche to a new garage and removed the AC condenser from the radiator

The new shiny EFI parts finally arrive!

Fun Facts about Throttle Position Sensors used on MegaSquirt injection. Sorry about the janky camera work.

Testing to make sure the size of the injectors fit the size of the injector cups on the 931′s head. Everything fits great!

1987 Porsche 924S quick walk around and test drive. The 3-Speed automatic transmission in these cars were made by Audi. They have NO overdrive but are relatively reliable. In terms of freeway performance, it is incredibly poor, resulting in very high engine RPMs, high engine temperatures, and horrible gas mileage (this can all be avoided if you travel exactly 60mph and below). The 3-Speed was an option, so it is kind of rare to have, especially on a 924S because they were only made for two years in the US. I am currently in the process of swapping it out for a 5-Speed manual, which will be documented here in the next couple of months. I already have most the parts, and the process is almost equivalent to a regular clutch job. PS Very sorry about the microphone quality. It doesn’t filter low frequencies very well at ALL. I may make another video showing all the things I have repaired on the car so far.. oh I also got the whole car for 0

Here is a Porsche 924 in Black outside my house. It’s an OK Car i Guess and a good find
