What’s the difference between a 924 and a 944?
The early 924 used a version of the Audi transaxle in all cars except the 1979 model year. Prior to 1979, the 924 used a 20mm input shaft instead of the later 25mm input shaft, so the drive tube on the 924 NA cars is the smaller shaft that is incompatible with later 944 and 924S transaxles.
When did the Porsche 924S come to America?
However, the Audi/VW 2.0 Liter engine block was discontinued after the 1986 model year, so Porsche had to decide whether to kill the model or do something different. They then decided to re-engineer the driveline of the 2.0 924 to take the 944 driveline, and the 924S was born as a 1987 model, then brought to America as an entry-level Porsche.
What should I change in my Porsche 944?
Porsche 944 Tuning modifications. Improving the handling for lots of DIY modders first priority in your 944 tuning project. If you set the toe out to degrees on the front, and add a tiny bit of negative camber then cornering will dramatically improve. We would go to a maximum drop of 27mm – 39 mm. on most models.
Which is better Porsche 944 Turbo or 2.7?
The 2.7 engine was better but has some specific parts which are expensive if they go wrong. The more modern 3.0ltr S2 is a very good all rounder and entry into Porsche ownership. 211bhp standard so plenty for most people. If you want tuning potential though then the turbo model is the way to go.
Is the Porsche 924 meant to be a VW?
It was meant to be a VW, designed and developed in a consultative capacity, as are so many projects at the Weissach technical centre; when VW’s new managing director cancelled the project, Porsche chose to cut its losses and sell the little coupe as a “starter” model.
What’s the compression ratio on a Porsche 924?
However, to avoid embarrassment, the compression ratio has been dropped to restrict power to 150 bhp and torque to 144 lb ft, a loss of 13 bhp and 7 lb ft respectively. Other advances have filtered down to the S. like the alloy rear semi-trailing arms, and discs finally replace the rear drums.
When did Porsche drop the Turbo in the 924?
In 1982 the Turbo was dropped as it confl icted with the newly-launched 944. Standard 924s gained yet another suspension update with a slimmer 20mm anti-roll bar and altered geometry settings. A limited slip differential was made optional, too.
Is the interior of a Porsche 944 the same as last year?
The interior is now identical to last year’s 944 (although this year’s 944 will have the dash of the new Turbo) with tasteful pinstripe cloth door panels (£88 extra, and you can’t have them if you have spent the £1,000 on leather seats).
