Welcome back, very nice a1200 you have there.
Car-wise, I'd rather look at the 944 you have in the background :)


Its a 1985 924S, which is the 924 body but with the larger Porsche made 2.5 liter inline 4, Its not in fantastic condition as I dont really use it much but its mechanically sound... Im not sure what I will be doing to it, Possibly a full restoration, or maybe Ill just clean it up...

And Iggy is right, the Skyline is significantly faster and better in the corners, But the Porsche is just as much fun....

Ahh, I didn't notice the lack of fender flares initially. The S model looks alot like the 944 i guess.

Performance wise, I'm sure the skyline is better, But I like Porsche's and have a soft spot for the 944's especially. I've owned a 924Turbo, two 944's, and a 911. Currently don't have any, but in the market for a 944 :)

Welcome Back.  I still am trying to figure out how you could put away a miggy with those specs for that long.  I could understand if you had like a 10 year deployment to Iraq or something, but holy smokes.  Well at least you have brought her back out again.  Do me a favor if you ever decide to store her for another 10 yr stint, let me know and I will baby sit her for you :D.  Cheers!!!

Quick update...

Its all back in its power tower, and OS3.9 is installing as I write :)

All the overheating and crashing problems went away when it was plugged into the towers PSU, Also installed but not yet using the BVision.

Just about managed to hook it up to my router too :)
