Question about the 944
Hey guys, I might be picking up a 944 for a track toy. How are the cars? I've heard a lot of good and a lot of bad things about them. Also, how big a deal is doing a crankshaft position sensor on them? I've got one being offered to me for cheap and it's in decent shape, it just needs the sensor to run apparently.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

944s are amazing on the track. The cars are very reliable, but the clutches are a pain in the butt to change.
The crankshaft position sensor is very easy to change out, and you should jump on this car if everything else is good.
I really love the 944s and they are the most balanced cars I have ever driven.

The 924/944/968's 50/50 weight bias make it a great track toy.
The 968 and/or S2 offer better torque on the low end, thus better
for accelerating out of the corner. However, being addicted to boost, I much
prefer the 951 aka 944 Turbo. With a $4-5K investment in the engine it's
not too tough to get a 2.5T to produce 350-400rwhp.
