BNE924 Posted 29August, 2022 Report Share Posted 29August, 2022 Hi guys, Hope you are well. Just bought a 924 turbo. Drove her from Melbourne to Brisbane last weekend. Didn't miss a beat. What a car!!! Look forward to this chat group. Will be good to catch up with Brisbane based owners.

Dreamr Posted 30August, 2022 Report Share Posted 30August, 2022 Hi Yogesh, Welcome to the most under-rated Porsche ownership experience out there. I've had mine for about 7 years and am just at the tail end of a 1.5 year restoration. Enjoy! tomo, Raven, SteveF and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveF Posted 30August, 2022 Report Share Posted 30August, 2022 Welcome Yogesh to the forum and congratulations on the purchase. They really are a fantastic little car. May I ask, where is that number plate from? tomo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNE924 Posted 30August, 2022 Author Report Share Posted 30August, 2022 Hi Steve, thanks for your warm welcome. Car was from South Africa Hi Dreamr, Your red 924 looks amazing. Keen to learn more about your ownership and Resto journey. I'm sure I'll be due for one at some stage. Car ran like a dream from Melbourne to Brissie. Agreed, didn't realise how well they drove. Hi Coastr, my other ride is an Alfa 75 3.0 V7. Another transaxle legend and sounds like a dream at 5000 rpm 😎 TwoHeadsTas and SteveF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are people more knowledgeable than me on 924's, but if you can learn a little from a lot of people, you'll be the next expert ...

3legs Posted 1September, 2022 Report Share Posted 1September, 2022 If you find the seat height is too close to the steering wheel there are aluminium blocks under the seat that you can remove to lower the seat. It really helps for blokes with thick thighs like me. Love the 924. Yours looks like it's in excellent condition. My first Porsche was a 924 back in 81, blew the motor up ( my fault ) and rebuilt it and attached a turbo. When it was working properly it went like hell. Traded it for my first 911.
