what did you do to your 944 today

Ever88, My Turboteledials are the same as yours, with the deeper dish 7" front 8" rear and 16" dia i think, most tele's are 15"
 
cheers Frenchy I did think mine were the deep dish wheel but I do not know the model inside out as many on this site do.
 
Not a 944................but I am chuffed to bits....... After the last 3 weekends messing around with ECU`s, engine sensors, Lambda and fuel pump relays and other niggles and issues today I finally got the 2.0L 16v ABF engine I have fitted into my Golf Mk1 running properly - sweet as a nut[:)] I`m pretty chuffed as I sorted it all myself wheras beforehand car electrics and management systems were a black art to me. Now for an MOT, RR and remap and a bit of track time (didnt see a track last year [&:])
 
ORIGINAL: Oct I think it looks great with tele's and I am not just saying that because mine has them too [:D] Eldavo, cracking job on the calipers.I am doing my front discs this weekend but after seeing that picture I think I will have to pencil in a caliper refurb.Did you just clean them up and paint or go for a full refurb?

Stripped them down, wire brushed all over and then degreaser with brake cleaner. About 6 coats of caliper paint and refitted. I left most of the caliper parts with a thin coat of paint on for protection and just built it up on the visible bits otherwise the thickness interferes with the sliding surfaces.
 
Eldavo, I painted my calipers last year and was quite pleased with them ..........until I saw yours. I think I'll have to do mine again! The PORSCHE name looks really good, how did you do that?
 
I have seen some on ebay, search for 'porsche caliper decal' should bring a few options up.
 
Yup, £1.99 for 6 posted from ebay but saw that the seller was in Sunderland so picked them up from the shop.
 
ORIGINAL: 944Turbo First time it happened I gave the ISV a blow with a blunt instrument - it stopped - so reasonably sure that's the problem. Tony

Ah percussive maintenance. Can't beat it. Today I repaired my Karcher jet wash before using my new snowfoam attachment and covering the 944 in foam ready to buff the streaks of from recolouring the hood
 
Dropped F40 OUD off at EMC motorsports for Kevin to fit Gaz Gold suspension, 968 rear ARB and set up geo for track day action. The parts look the biz. His workshop is like an homage to the 944. Looking forwards to the result! Question for track day punters. What are your favourite brake pads?
 
Put the last coat of clear on my wheels.

Drove to Bracknell and back and got flashed by the new cameras fitted on the gantry over the M1 Southbound near the M25 Junction[:mad:]

James - they are the only set of teles I've ever looked twice at! Thinking I could put some like that on my 2.7......... Edit - are they the 15" or 16" ones?
 
Those tele's look well smart 16" DEEP DISH TURBO'S Methinks. Put some tax on the 220 this week, so it will be out and about, just been to the garage and put the battery conditioner on.
 
Cheers, they are indeed 16 inch early turbo Teledials. They would fit your early car but not the 2.7.
