I have always dremt of owning one and the time is fast approaching I found a beautiful 93 928GTS That i am so psyched on getting and The first thing to do is to drop in the RMB in, that growl is awesome.
Very good, long lasting engines. You have to maintain them but you have to maintain any engine to get that result as well. I placed 2 Garrett turbos on mine at 169,000 miles and now the engine is making 550-630 HP and is still very reliable.
the drive shaft can pull from the coupler if driven hard (or it's not snug). If you see more than a few mm of splines showing on the driveshaft at the front connection, there might be excessive load on the thrust bearing. 5 min check with a small flashlight
I love the 928 engine! Such a deep growl at low revs, and screaming when you push it :) Very reliable, mine has done 286700 km, and it doen't use any oil, and still produces 310 hp, even 24 years old :o
@SharkGTS and many of those beautiful cars get crashed by beginners that think "wow porsche yeah but wait its not a 911 so fuck it imma drive like a niki lauda"
hi - we are on the west coast (near long beach). friend of mine has his 1990 for sale. $12K cdn. oil changes 1 per year. tune ups - plugs every 40-50K km's, rotors and caps last a long time.

I think they get faster/better as they break in with miles. unfortunately many seem to be forgotten before hitting those distances.

@SharkGTS 1 per year eh? No thanks... I hate a motor that will blow a bearing when i've thrown 5k into the rest of the car...
