Non Undercoated Southern California car. Pretty close to Rust free except for some overlays in the hell hole. Longitudinals, floors and all sheet metal is completely original as I carefully choose a good chassis. Painted it Wimbledon White (originally red), for the R theme. Reinforced Inner rear suspension ears (common failure area). Smoothed Black top. Rocker panels are steel (new fiberglass set included)
Stock F20C mated to the original 901 side shift transmission using a Kennedy Adapter. GT style without flares. Goal was to retain original 914 style and feel. Original intent was track oriented but switched it to street. Never been tracked so the current suspension setup is untested at the limits, but I started with a safe setup for understeer.
Dangerously fast from 6500 to 9000 rpm with 240hp @ 8300 rpm, 8900 rpm red line. (similar power delivery to a real GT's 2.0 rated at 210 hp @ 8000rpm). Reminds me of a 2.2S six conversion I did in the 80's, but faster.
Next steps that were on my list: Boxster front calipers, Full Carpeted interior, Removal of stock engine mounts for weight saving and cleaner look, Add a decorative top tube where I cut the thin upper portion of the trunk bulk head, Hidden kill switches, Interior A pillar trim, JDM style wheels for the Type R theme (TE-37 or Spoon style)
