That sounds just like my street.
On any given day I can wander up and see....
3 rusty Ford Exploders, 1 or 2 pimped out Crown Vic’s, Possibly a lowered Honda Civic replete with 5” zorst.
Oh and the latest star is a tail dragging lifted 4x4 Ram.... I kid you not, that one has to be seen! |
and only rich doctors lift in the turn. :-)
Not a doctor and definitely not rich so..... |
However Mijo Is correct that you really have to do as much work as you can on your 911 unless you are loaded.
And the Porsche boxed alternator is about right.
I had a Mercedes AMG V8 coupe a few years back and a simple AC hose joint failed. Now granted it was a bit of a fancy moulded hose but....
$278 for the AMG branded one, $105 for the "regular" Mercedes part, same exact part, different part numbers and prices. |

Have you ever seen any of those real mutts, the LS motored 914 cars.
Purists vomit when they see them, then cry when they drive around them... Lol.
A local guy here has one, really nice work on the motor install, sounds like pure evil and just rips from a dead start too.
Not sure i could do that to a 914 but it looks like fun. |
Ah I c.
Well we have gone from car and cat weekly to furniture trader in a couple of posts.....lol.
Nothing So lofty, just a Rooms To Go model, any by model I do mean model..... lol The Cindy Crawford Collection.
Whoever knew.......? |
Sorry Glupson.
Not Quite following you? |

B_limo.
Lol.
Ok will add car pics and 6 furry friends pix......
Better be ready! |
Must have a different breed of 911 owners here in Florida, most of them I know would not even know where the hood was or where to even find the motor.......
Been there and done that and moved on.
Maybe I did not buy the right one but my 911 experience was luke warm.
Had always lusted after one and eventually bought one, an early water cooled one if I remember right, 2001 or so?
Now my Cayman.... that is another story entirely!
But back to audio not Car & Driver.... lol. |
Seems single moms with budding teenage audiophools have a lot in common here.
My mother could not afford to help my quest for audio BUT she never asked for a single penny of my meager earnings from my Saturday job and evening odd jobs at 14/15 even though I’m sure looking back it would have made things easier.
In retrospect I was obviously a selfish git but what can you expect from a teen with audio stars in his eyes.
It all turned out good though and we still had bread on the table and I had music. |
Jaytor.
Real audiophools enjoy music.
End of story......
Stay safe.

Many thanks for the kind words, although I know the pictures could/should be better.
My daughter showed interest in my records so I set her up with one of my old tables from years back with a new cartridge, nothing fancy but it gets the job done.
She now has maybe 150 albums including some mofi discs and she does take very good care in handling them and of cleaning the stylus the correct way.
Have to reward and encourage any youngster who shows any interest in good old audio in todays modern times of all streaming and earbuds!

I have pictures up of my systems and try to update details as I remember but i know my system looks like crap but i really do not care too much what others think.
When you are sitting in my listening chair then you understand that the sum of the parts sometimes does equal more. |
