Exactly!! i have bought m,yself a Carbon Fibre sheet and will do the same, i always hated that passanger seat belt light thing, bloody Safety Wankers!!! now I will be able to get rid of it.


Agreed. On my car, the warning light for the seat belts is disconnected, as well as the seat sensors.

Saturday night and where is this 22 year old single guy? Just got finished working on wiring.....

Pulled out the ignition today. Had a little trouble with the top pop rivet, but nothing a little fab wont fix. Took it to a locksmith to get rekeyed and should have it back in a few days. Just enough time to get all the wiring in....

Hey sorry for the lack of update(s) guys, there's more to come, I promise. I want to have the car done by August, so I want to get back up to daily updates like I was a while back.

As for information, I took the ignition in to get rekeyed the same day I took it out, and the locksmith told me it would be done by Wednesday at the latest. Didnt call. Finally I called the following Wednesday, and he said it would be another week, as he didnt have the proper keys. So we will see this Wednesday.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

My Dads car is still there, he might transplant the engine from this car into his /6. Luckily, we've made my car our priority, he has his other 'toys' to keep him busy....

My Dad and I (ok, mostly my Dad) put up the dash vynil today, I'm really liking the way it looks....

Also popped in the relay board for the first time since it's been out. Still needs a bit of cleaning, and to find the harness, but all is there!

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-9478-1278401797.1.jpg)





Did some 'wire management' in the engine area, cutting off the old hard plastic sheat and putting one that is removable....

A few pictures from putting on the dash vynil the other day. We stayed away from the spray adhesive, and went for the Woodweld contact cement.

Trying to decide on the carpet. Whether to go with something like this, charcoal, or black.

Only got a small but important task done today. Found one of the plugs that goes from the relay board to the engine off one of the other cars. It was alittle rough, so I took off most of the old plastic, and cleaned everything off.

Before/After

Also, as I was cleaning that portion of the harness, a neighbor walked by and we got to talking about my car. He noticed my dash, and told me he had some Carbon Fiber that, if I promised to put to 'good use' I could have. 10 minutes later, he comes back with this! Can anyone say new dash plates? Center divide insert? Maybe rear '914-6' script between the tail lights?

After having gone through that 75' 3.6 my Father purchased the other day, we both realized how nice we've done our cars (atleast we think so). We both came to the conclusion that my car deserves a /6. The reasoning behind it is that people will see it, and like, it until they realize, "Oh, it's a Four cylinder..." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Today I pulled out this original /6 engine that has been sitting around for a few years. It's been converted to 2.2 liters. I think I've mentioned it before, but atleast now, I actually know the significance of it having been stored inside, having turbo valve covers, and Carrera chain tensioners. I know at the minimum I'm going to need a new fan shroud.

I'm taking out to Vista tomorrow to have it checked out...... Fingers crossed! Let us PRAY to the Porsche Gods!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

I'm still a Rookie (couldn't you tell?) but I believe the number on the engine is *6300063* I'm looking it up, but I believe this does in fact correspond to a 914/6.

Comments/questions/"Stupid rookie jokes" welcome

More numbers. I still have yet to find out what this engine is. I've been trying to find an 'Engine Decoder' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Hopped across the street to get an alarm system and door-lock actuators....

Only bought 2 actuators, but I'm going to need a thrid, probably for the front trunk. If I go 3.0L with CIS, I'm going to grab one more actuator, and hook it to the engine lid, as it's my understanding that you have to 'delete' the latch.
