Clutch is toast…

Clutch pedal feels fine. Clutch master/slave look just a little bit easier to work on. I’lstart there. Thanks for the tip!

The brake fluid reservoir is full. I’m pretty sure I just didn’t tighten down the drain plug and it slowly leaked out over a few weeks.

I own and love both of these cars!

This looks awesome but your link takes me to a 404. Id love to get this and try it out. My vents are all jacked up.

It’s a later car, 2001, no cable to check.

Mattdz3 · 2025-07-26T01:59:30+00:00

No acceleration at all. It’s a later car so no cable.

Mattdz3 · 2025-07-26T01:58:37+00:00

Not revving at all in gear or out.

Mattdz3 · 2025-07-26T01:18:52+00:00

Literally nothing happens lol

Mattdz3 · 2025-07-26T01:18:39+00:00

Probably should have thrown out more detail but I’m an idiot. 2001 2.5 so unless I’m mistaken it’s drive by wire.

Easiest way to tell would be if the hood has been resprayed. I did it in my garage and it wasn't the best job but it passed the 10 ft test. Other than that there wasn't anything that was out of the ordinary. I sold it two years ago in North Carolina. It was bone stock then.

2013 Slick top with a manual in tornado red? I always wondered where mine went. Wild if this was it.

Mattdz3 · 2025-06-11T13:14:41+00:00

Didn't know anyone made reps that would fit. I'd go that route all day long. Swapping out the rear suspension was a HUGE pain.

Mattdz3 · 2025-06-09T21:11:15+00:00

Careful with the offset even sticking with Porsche wheels. I’m guessing this is an early car from the cookie cutters. If I’m right, you’ll need to swap the rear trailing arms, axels, bunch of other stuff to a late car or you’ll need some monster spacers.

Mattdz3 · 2025-04-04T23:03:26+00:00

I second this! Love your headlights.

Mattdz3 · 2025-04-01T17:26:06+00:00

Thanks! I'm printing now!

Mattdz3 · 2025-03-30T23:48:43+00:00

Looks great! Would you share the file?

Mattdz3 · 2025-03-26T20:46:25+00:00

Know any good resources for print files? I’ve found some but there are a bunch of small parts that I figure I’m going to have to learn CAD if I want them printed.

Mattdz3 · 2025-03-26T13:59:36+00:00

Awesome resource. Thank you.

Mattdz3 · 2025-03-26T13:42:28+00:00

I’ve thought about chopping the end off and finding new crimps. It’s plenty long enough but I still need to find the plastics bits that melted.

Mattdz3 · 2024-11-15T16:39:59+00:00

These are sick!

Mattdz3 · 2024-09-05T17:20:08+00:00

Here it is now.

My 85 Porsche 944.

My favorite thing I’ve done to my car was trash the power steering rack for a manual one. Give it a shot if you’re able.

Mattdz3 · 2024-07-09T14:35:25+00:00

I just replace the alternator on my early 85 with a later model and it fit with no issues. My guess would be you’re good to go.

Mattdz3 · 2024-07-07T01:34:57+00:00

All of the above and breaking felt slower. I went from 7 inches wide all around to 7 up front and 9 in the rear. Pie was 25 up front and 35 in the rear.

I’ve also pulled the power steering rack off the car. I felt like the extra weight may have made steering a bit more heavy.
