Hey guys,

I've been wanting to refresh my rear shock absorbers for a while now on my 1986 NA. I do not need heavy duty Bilsteins or Koni's, as I do not track the car. The cost of them is too high for my use, and I already replaced the fronts with OEM Sachs absorbers, so the added value would be low. I just want to refresh it and keep it as close to OEM as possible.

I have however had trouble finding the OEM shock absorbers, since they are seemingly out of stock everywhere. OEM number in the catalog is 951 333 032 05 for Fichtel/Sachs absorbers. If I backtrack OEN numbers by Sachs, I end up with number 477 513 031 H, but every site lists them as compatible only with the early model. Does anyone know for sure they are also compatible with the phase 2 NA models? Or alternatively, where to find OEM shocks in Europe? (US Shipping is always insanely expensive, so I'd rather not order there)

For reference: https://partworks.de/2x-shock-absorbers-for-PORSCHE-924-944-477513031A

If they just don't exist anymore, what would you guys propose as a replacement in my scenario? I know many people will always say to just go for the more expensive Koni's as they are better, but it just doesn't seem worth the extra price for me...

Thanks!

Hello I have a na 1987 and a strange thing happened while I was driving the car. The car had been running well for 10 minutes and first I pushed a little harder on the accel and the car kind of stopped accelerating and I released the pedal and pushed it again and it went back to normal but the next time I pushed on the accel a litle harder than just slowly cruising the car did the same thing but it’s like I was not getting any power to the weels (the rpm was not increasing) then stalled. Then I stopped on the side of the road turned off the ignition key and started again no problem and drove back carefully for 2-3 min. Any idea what could be the problem ?

Hi y’all. I just got my 1990 turbo running. And alas found out that the intake boot had a massive leak under it…

So my question is; do you guys have any suggestions as to what parts to get now oem or upgrade. And where should I get them from?

I wasn’t able to find much info on the seller of the part in the picture. Any experiences?

I’m I fucked?
