In other news, insurance have deemed my car to be a write off, $6,500 in repairs. A touch over $3,600 in (NEW) parts alone, dunno where the f**k they're getting ALL of the suspension components new but whatever.

It has chassis rail damage it's been confirmed now but they want $4,000 to buy it back, does anyone think its worth paying that much to part it out to only make a few grand?

Engine 1000-1500, gearbox 1000, any major mods you can sell off?

rear top-mounted intercooler without fans... hmmmm. those cars be air-cooler, doesnt look like there room for water-cooling.

as cool as it is, looks like you could either drive it mildly on the street or put your foot down waiting for the inevitable bang.

Mind you, the sub-frames of the 930 (shared with the BMW E28 apparently) are amazing.

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
