Hi Jim, it,s a stock Audi 016 5N that was rebuilt just before I bought it and I have put 500+ miles on it. Steve

I did a scratch build and it took eight years. I spent five months designing and researching before I ever cut my first piece of metal. I had the car running and drivable while I spent a year doing bodywork and paint! Just a note on the paint and bodywork, do it first not last. This was a...

Hi Darnel, I think I'll photodocument some of the component parts this Winter as I have time. If there is anything specific you would like to know just let me know and I,ll take pictures and try to answer as best I can. Steve

I am changing to a Porsche 930 so my complete drivetrain is for sale. I have driven it for 500+ miles over the last year, there are no problems everything works great. I have the following items and would like to sell the entire package. I will seperate the tranny but would like to sell the rest...

Hi Dave, I'm here to tell you it CAN be done and there are several others on this forum as well. Keep at it one part at a time and you will have a great car to drive before to long. I miss working on mine now that it's "done" (I'm replacing the Audi box with a 930). Keep up the progress and...

Hi Dmytro, a few things that stand out that are not going to work, the cross member in the front about where your knees are going to go has to be open (your legs wont fit the way you have it) Also the vertical frame members in the rear where your upper transverse suspension links are going to...

Theres a 1986 930 on e bay right now, the reserve is 2K and it has the "solid" bellhousing that can be shortened. Ends tomorrow Steve

Hi Cliff, Yes his is the #17 powder blue car that is there year after year. I went one year and spent 20 minutes talking to Dan Gurney who was VERY warm and friendly, a true car guy. I tried to talk to Doug Kirk and he was a dick with ears and very pompous and full of himself. His car was...

["I haven't vintage raced in Europe. However, there's a very active vintage racing group in my area (Northwestern United States) and it's clear that if the car wasn't built prior to 1970 then it makes no difference what papers are with the car, it's not going on the track. Replicas are strictly...

I just bought a 1987 930 LSD box with 70K miles for $2500 and could have bought a non LSD 930 for $1800 and a non LSD G50/01 for $2500. These are real world prices that people actually would sell these trannys for. There is a G50/50 with LSD and low miles for sale right now for 7K and it is much...

Chrysler has 1" 23 spline disk's that will work and I'm told Ford as well. The other thing that will need to happen is to shorten the input shaft 1"! This is a common thing to do on the 930 gearbox in order to bring the output flanges inline with the wheel hubs. Steve

I will call them when I get my trans axle, it should be here next week. The goal would be to make the 930 conversion like a ZF in that the bell housing would be the adapter and you would use the standard Ford flywheel and clutch parts. It can be done since Martins is set up that way I just need...

Very nice David, you're doing a beautiful job! Keep up the pace:2thumbsup: Steve

Here's what mine look like Bob. Steve

JD Doshti I want $500.00 for the Audi 5N 016 box with phantom grip installed. Steve

If you are willing to trade your time for $$$ then you can build an "inexpensive" GT40 that is nice and will be a blast to drive! I know this because I have done it but be ready to spend seven or eight years. For me the goal was to have a long term hobby and learn something and building a GT...

That is exactly what I needed, thank you so much for your time and help. That's about an inch longer than I can live with, I need it to be about 8.5".Do you think there is anyway to make that dimension shorter? Steve

Hi Ron, As soon as I get a 930 box I will take all the important measurements and post them here wherever you think they should be. Are you feeling any better? Steve

Thank you Martin, If at some point you can measure from the centerline of the axle output flange to the bell housing face that would be great. How far are you from driving your car? Steve

That helps greatly, thank you Martin. Can you get the dimension from the bell face to the centerline of the out put flange? I should be able to buy the 930 box this afternoon. Steve
