Porsche 944 (1990)
for sale

Price: US $14,500.00

Description:

I am happy to discuss the car at length with potential buyers. Please send me a message for my phone number!
For sale is a 1990 Porsche 944 S2. Only 449 S2's were imported into the US in 1990, from a total production run of 3321 in the world. The S2 has 4-piston Brembo calipers on all 4 corners of the car and uses the larger rotors found on the Turbo cars. The S2 also received the rounded front nose of the Turbo cars and improved handling.
This car has a 5.7L LS1 v8 from a 2001 Firebird installed in it. You have probably seen almost finished swap cars that just need a few things. This car is DONE. Everything works! Cold A/C, heat that will melt your socks off. All instruments work correctly, no strange dash lights, no confusing problems. Hop in and start it up! This is a beautiful car that gets attention wherever it goes. A million times more unique and classy than a Corvette, but with all the power and reliability.
I have driven the car in autocross and DE events on occasion, but the car is not a track rat. It has served daily driver duties and been a weekend car since I've owned it. This car is ready for whatever you'd like to do with it. I would not hesitate to drive it across the country or enter it in a race.
Notes:
During my pre-sale inspection I noticed that the right rear tire is worn unevenly and will need to be replaced fairly soon. I suspect that the alignment may need to be touched up on that corner, but the rest of the car is dead-on.
Also, the car is tuned to run at 7200ft of elevation and I strongly recommend having it re-tuned when it reaches its new home (as I would recommend that any modified engine be re-tuned at a new elevation). If you need help locating a good tuner in your area, I'd be happy to assist.
Here is a complete listing of everything that has been done to the car:

Removed from Firebird WS6 at 38k ARP Rod Bolts, bearings looked new when rod bolts were installed Iskendarian LS Cam, 224/224, .575/.575, 113LSA Iskendarian Tool Steel beehive springs with Titanium retainers LS6 PCV System with catch can This engine has the upgraded LS6 intake manifold design Ported throttle body High-flow MAF screen High Volume Oil pump LS2 Double-roller timing chain Renegade Hybrids oil pan, ceramic coated headers with v-bands, remote oil filter Kevlar HD clutch, has ~25, 000 miles on it Last dyno'ed at 348 RWHP corrected @ 5700rpm (should easily be ~400 RWHP @ ~6400rpm, the throttle was not opening fully on the dyno. It's fixed now!) 3.5 Single Exhaust with SpinTech Muffler, no catalytic converter currently installed New NAPA alternator ~25, 000 trouble-free miles since installation Engine wiring is separated from the Porsche wiring, avoiding all the troublesome Bosche relays that 944's are known for. The engine uses 100% GM relays. Engine has only seen synthetic oil and frequent changes since I've owned it. Transmission A0R Transmission from Turbo S - The best 944 transaxle ever made! Limited Slip and Externally Cooled N/A 5th gear, drops freeway by several hundred RPM's Shot-peened 1st and 2nd gears, this transmission is good for about 450+rwhp Purchased with ~88k miles, added ~15k since then Shifts smoothly Recent RedLine MT90 oil change Suspension Koni Yellow adjustable struts/shocks Ground Control (GC) Coilover conversion with 300# GC front springs Ground Control caster plates 28mm rear Torsion Bars, 300# equivalent 968 M030 Front & Rear Sway Bars + Bushings Elephant Racing PolyBronze bushings in rear suspension Front ball joints rebuilt, new lower control arm bushings ~5k ago Remanufactured Rack Texas Performance Heim joint tie rod ends with bump-steer correction kit Front control arms relocated to correct location 968 Caster Blocks Hankook Ventus V12 tires front/rear. Fronts are at ~75% treadwear, rears are due to be replaced (see note) Entire suspension is tight, new-ish, and ready for whatever you can throw at it. Handling is EXCELLENT but also daily-driveable. Chassis 1990 S2 chassis, one of 449 imported into the US in 1990. Clean CarFax and not so much as a door ding while i've owned it 993 TT Hollow Spoke (light!) rims powdercoated white, 18x11 and 18x8.5 - 225 front and 285 rear. Easy to change colors if you don't like the white! Rear hub was switched to early offset to fit 18x11 rim correctly Rear wheel wells rolled to fit large tires Texas Performance Concepts lower lip Morimoto Mini HID Headlight Upgrade (hi/lo beams) Newer OEM windshield tinted with clear blue tint (blocks 99% UV and cuts heat by 20%, but completely invisible) High quality 25% tint all around, blocks 99% UV Brey-Krause strut bar Stock 4-piston Brembo brakes. Front rotors are drilled, rears are drilled/slotted. Pads all have ~75% life in them. Manual proportioning valve installed. ABS present but disabled (due to tire size differences). Odometer shows 200k+ miles. I have no reason to doubt this is accurate, but the car itself does not show it, and just about every wear item has been replaced! MOMO Steering wheel (air bags disabled due to lack of driver-side airbag) This is a 25 year old car, and to my knowledge the paint is original. This car has been garaged during the past 5 years and the paint still has plenty of shine to it. The chassis lived in California and Texas prior to NM and there is no rust anywhere that I have found.
The front bumper, front valence, and hood have all suffered from quite a few rock chips over the years and should probably be repainted or covered if you are planning to make this a show car. There are a few dents (mostly on the hood) that i'll document in the pictures. The paint on the back half of the car is in excellent condition with very few chips. Overall the cars looks excellent from a foot away and the car looks very good for its age. I would consider it a driver that can be polished up for the weekend. I have never seen any evidence of body work and the car has a clean CarFax. Interior Uncracked Dash! Eclipse CD/MP3 player Kenwood front speakers/Infinity rear speakers Most of interior upgraded to LED's Brey-Krause fire extinguisher mount High quality Turbo script floor mats Custom Interior Color: Black/Burgundy leather interior. This car originally came with a linen white interior that was in okay condition. I had a wrecked 951 with a Burgundy leather interior that was in perfect condition, so I moved most of it into this car. The color combination found on this car was never a production option. The interior is in very good shape overall. The dash, door cards, center console, carpet, floor mats, trunk mat, etc. are all in very good shape as the pictures show. I would rate them significantly above average for a car this age. The photos tell the whole story. The biggest exception to this is the driver's seat. The leather on the outer bolster is worn, and there are a few scratches on the seat bottom. Miscellaneous Mustang HydroBoost brake master cylinder - most swaps will use a manual master cylinder because a vacuum booster doesn't fit...this will put your face into the windshield! ;-) TurnOne Power Steering Pump - brand new power steering pump specifically designed for the 944 system + hydroboost. Includes custom pulley. Steering feels extremely precise. Constantine's Torque Tube Bearings - Torque tube completely rebuilt with new heavy-duty bearings. $680 kit! Custom short shifter (both on the transaxle and under the driver's hand) with custom knob and leather boot 3 month old Deka ETX30L battery (lightweight, AGM-style battery) - Excellent cranking power, ~30lbs lighter than stock Ford Taurus cooling fan (much more efficient than stock fans)
Terms & Conditions:
Car is being sold AS-IS with no warranty expressed or implied. I do believe the car is in excellent shape with the exception being in the notes above.
Spare Parts:
I have quite a collection of things to include with the car. Briefly: original batwing, all relays, good LS1 alternator, original radiator fans, spare S2 radiator (used, good), spare belt, window motors, blower motor and fans, 2x spare rear axles, and a lot of other stuff I can't think of right now!
About Me:
I have worked at several performance shops in the Albuquerque, NM area. I have performed late-model engine swaps into a number of older cars prior to building this car. This is my personal vehicle and all work was completed with the intent that anyone could diagnose and repair the car.
