        wheres it coming from, can u compare it to something?
        mainly comming from the front end mostly front left .. they sent me 2 right sway bar links so i inverted it for the left for the time being till i get it replaced but i dont think this is the cause .... sounds exactly like a car on chopped springs LOL weird to explain but yeah got a sort of metalic/plastic grind to it

        djorkboy dont know about a 944 not realy my sort of car .. on the other hand a 928 s4 5.0 i would trade my bora for any day ( was actualy concidering it ) but im not allowed to drive it so no point

        • Another ignition coil died today I'm pretty sure it was only the one.

          Quick question, when the cars running and you pull the coil out the one that is not working won't spark and the ones that are do?

            That 944s not that good. Needs a lot of work. the 911 is cool though

            • I think most 944s these days are a scary prospect. They have been cheap enough for long enough to have been owned by people with no understanding of the effort and $$$ that owning a Porsche requires. what I really, really like at CVWC is the 80s Caddy fresh back from paint and ready to be reassembled.

              Today I washed my Bora for the first time in a long time (this makes it 2 washes since GAF back in September!!) and went for a quick 120km drive out to the country and back, with a gratuitous bokeh photo on the way.

                  • so is the car running better now ? the gearbox was OK ?

                    ps, in California with my godparents and the number of Bora/Jetta mk4's here is insane. Too bad they never came in 4motion

                      Yeah shame they didn't get the 4motion. If they did there'd be a way larger range of aftermarket crap for us to waste our money on (or stuff would be easier for us to find online without having to research) =[

                        they did get tdi and 1.8t though, id personally rather one of those then a 4mo...

                        they are sooooo cheap over there. US crew just buy, lower to the ground, wait for car to break, either replace parts because its so cheap or buy a new one! here ~$10k is still needed to buy something half decent

                                Honestly not a huge fan of the front flared guards from front view. Wheels need to fill it out perhaps or I'd like them if they tapered in at the bottom.

                                The rear looks fine from what I can see

                                On the other hand the hood looks sick!!! Boser? Or the add on bit? So tough.
