I'd still give my left nut for a Mines R34. Turkish do you know where on the net there is a vid a white one getting tested by some Japs? They go on at the beginning about keeping it a 2.6 to make it more responsive.
Sadly not, unless you build it out of either 85% of parts from a doner car, in that car it gets its doner car number place. Or if 90% of the parts are brand new, in that case you get a new plate. (This statement is hugely simplified)
Q is the simplest way to go though!
The next job will be to fit the gear indicator I bought months ago, so I'll do an update on that soon.
As for using it in winter: I've used it every weekend nearly since I got it. Although 888's in sub zero temps really do not work and it'll spin the rears all the time. Thermals and a helmet...
I traced the problem down to a relay which I swapped with another one off another bike
In case it dies again I've left it somewhere easy to get to....
It runs better than even now, having a dying relay in the ignition circuit really makes a difference it seems!
Then it tried to freeze me to death...
The ignition would turn off when I selected a gear, then it snowed, I was 10 miles from home! Que waiting 40 mins in the snow to be towed home, by my father who set off before I put my helmet on, so my head froze.... a lot.
Will do, I've been looking on and off for a nice classic 911 for ages (all started with my dad having one for a week when I was 5!). Ideally want a '87 3.2 narrow body so its the same age as me!
This '82 SC is just down the road from me. I want it badly.
