Damn, what kind of suspension you got on it? Any performance mods? How much does getting it like that cost? I know Porsches are EXPENSIVE to modify, so im just wonder how much everything would cost. Thanks.

2years180sx · 04-14-2005, 08:44 PM

Wow really... it looked like a 944 Turbo!

But yeah thats sweet... a N/A 944 drifting! Give us a list of mods! Im really curious to see what it takes to make a 944 driftable!

Thats totally untrue! That just a generalization. My dad's 924S is very inexpensive to modify... thats only true for newer, more expensive 911's and boxters... their parts are very expensive. Most Porsche's 1994 and older arent very expensive to get parts for. For instance, my dad got a full after-cat exhaust for 750 bucks. He also bought a set of front and rear weltmeister
adjustable sway bars for 700 bucks.

Maybe ill slap a K27 turbo and a LSD on my dads car and go drifting too!

STR Muffler $100.

Cosmetic mods are

Mods I want to get.

Some of the items are more expsensive, but other aren't. The thing that is exspensive is labor.

i have a 944 na and its bone stock. Its got a stock lsd which helps. These cars are great for drifting even when there stock. A little body roll but its not that bad.

Here's a video clip from the last NCDA event. My battery died but i got most of the run. Enjoy! I'm coming in at 3rd gear doing about 75-80mph.
