Not good at all. The torque tube nearly ripped itself to pieces on the way home, I suspect the bearings are within a heat cycle of binding. The entire drivetrain needs to be dropped out and fixed. The car is off the road for the rest of the year. I love it, i post a call out and then my car goes down. Sad ☹ Oh well, it’ll give me an excuse to drop another few hundred pounds off the car. Sorry for coping out of my own callout ☹

It started to happen on the way down to Philly on Saturday. I decided to drive it to letchworth and it got significantly worse on the way home to the point where the whole car was shaking, and the shifter was vibrating like crazy. You can tell atleast 2, probably 3 out of the 4 main bearings are completely toast in the torque tube.

sucks to hear man. i saw the car for the first time at the BBQ yesterday and LOVED it. i had no idea who u were, but i wanted to compliment you on the car. i used to have a 944 and somewhat know what a bitch those thigns are to work on, and how expensive parts are. after actually seeing it, i have a LOT of respect for it and the owner.

I saw the car for the first time at the BBQ as well, and everytime I see a 944, I get all excited and I wet myself. I absolutely LOVE 944’s. My friend Ian has an 88 Silver Rose Turbo S. Fabulous car. Fast as hell too. Too bad he never drives it.

I buy Conquests, because they look similiar, and are usually cheaper to fix. Someday, I will get a 944…someday.
