Non undercoated Southern California car. Nearly Rust free with the exception of an overlay in the hell hole. Longitudinal, floors and all body panels are original as I carefully choose a clean chassis. Painted 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 included)
Bone Stock F20C mated to a 901 side shift transmission via Kennedy Adapter. GT style without flares. Goal was to retain original 914 styling and feel. Original intent was track oriented but changed it to street. Never been tracked so the suspension setup is untested, but I started with a setup that should understeer.
Dangerously fast from 6500 to 9000 rpm with 240hp @ 8300 rpm, 8900 rpm red line - similar power delivery to a factory GT 2.0 rated at 210 hp @ 8000rpm. Sounds great. Reminds me a lot of a 2.2S six I had in the 80's, but faster.
Next steps on my list: Boxster front calipers, Carpeted interior with tray, Removal of stock engine mounts for weight saving and cleaner look, Add a decorative top tube where I cut the thin upper portion (non structural) of the trunk upper bulk head, Hidden kill switches, reinstall Interior A pillar trim, change wheel color to yellow.
