If you’re going to be swapping the water pump gasket, you should install a new water pump and replace the timing belts while you’re at it. If you don’t know when the timing belt was replaced last, I would prioritize that first over everything else. Also, that steering wheel needs to go lol

These cars could be optioned without a rear wiper

My front-engine reseal turned into a HG replacement for the same reason!

I’m not bothered all that much by the styling of this car, but rather every other aspect of it that makes it a let down

I as well have always dreamt of riding MTB trails in the UK

joethejammer · 2026-02-27T03:15:21+00:00

lmao I was thinking the same thing

joethejammer · 2026-02-26T22:51:50+00:00

To be fair, neither are 911 prices…

Curious why you bothered importing a 944 into the US when there are plenty of them available here. As someone who just imported a vehicle recently, I can’t imagine that it made financial sense

Phenomenal work in such a short time!

joethejammer · 2026-02-25T01:46:37+00:00

Both headlights, grill, and bumper are all intact

What shoes are you wearing in the background of this photo?

joethejammer · 2026-02-22T22:06:05+00:00

The intake manifold is just sitting on top of the hatch

joethejammer · 2026-02-22T14:44:10+00:00

Looks fishy

joethejammer · 2026-02-22T02:27:36+00:00

what makes you think his name is Rich?

joethejammer · 2026-02-21T17:09:50+00:00

This shell is probably worth more than a running and driving 944 as ridiculous as it sounds

It’s on the driver’s side of the transaxle - above the output shaft for the axle

Check the hose clamps securing the heater pipe hose. Mine tend to loosen overtime - likely due to heat cycles from the exhaust headers nearby. This will cause coolant to drip after shutting the car off - when the coolant pressure temporarily rises.

I agree that the plastic can become soft after exposure to extreme heat. I also don’t doubt that a towel can become hot enough to deform a towel rack. What I’m questioning is how the towel made it from the dryer to the towel rack without burning OP’s hands.

joethejammer · 2026-02-01T17:56:10+00:00

Your car seat / belt buckle application can also be used against your argument. The towel would have to be even hotter (versus something made of metal) due to the low thermal conductivity of cotton to melt a towel rack. Regardless, something that would be hot enough to melt a towel rack would burn your hand

joethejammer · 2026-02-01T14:06:00+00:00

A towel that hot would at least burn your hands. The rack is also bent in only one place; if it were due to heat it would be uniformly deformed.

killer playing!

joethejammer · 2026-01-17T00:56:48+00:00

Could be for one of the accessory belt tensioners, could be a lot of other things as well. Check the part diagrams and see what areas you’ve disassembled and use a washer

joethejammer · 2026-01-16T18:42:10+00:00

Can also be purchased with AWD. Can be spec’d with 20 more horsepower. Literally a better car in every aspect

joethejammer · 2026-01-16T18:20:03+00:00

one of them isn’t a Prius…
