lexan sunroof

hi im new here and own a 88 924s ........ and yes i am keeping the motor i have sorry guy........... i really wanted to throw this out there to see what you guys think .......... we all want to lose weight and look good and i have see the caliber of work the admins do here and wanted to know if they think they can tackle a lexan sunroof ........back in the day they where made out of glass by a biz call Saratoga but they went under long ago....... i have see lexan ones like this one [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and i think if some one can pull this off there is a big market out there and alot of money to be had .............. i know i would buy one

Welcome....kinda (4 cyl??)

back in the day they where made out of glass by a biz call Saratoga but they went under long ago

You talk as if we with V8's have no idea about this. ....Just hazin' ya a bit. We all know about saratoga. If anybody could easily handle it, it would be Eric. He already makes acrylic/lexan headlight covers. The thing is, they are difficult to make with the ability to latch (frame) as well as be stable at speed. I believe this is the problem that halted many attempts over there at rennlist???

I think over here, the consensus would be to get rid of the sunroof more than elaborate it. But, maybe another will chime in here.

I have a fiberglass replacement panel that is light weight and would take some fabrication to make it removable. It' more of a glue in racing version, But I have thought of cutting a hole in it and installing a glass sunroof in it. None of the manufactures would email me any curve specs on their glass, I don't think a flat glass would look right and Lexan will be scratched the first time you clean it.

i know i was going to got some hazzing .... its all good ................. i just wanted to throw it out there to see if any one had some ideas on how to find a solution

At least on the 4cyl you don't have to worry about it flying off at high speed.

..... ahhhhhhh I new it was coming!

Hey I like that intake. You don't usually see an actual CAI. It's usually just a cone filter in the path of the radiators hot air. Who makes that and where can it be bought?

HEY' you guy's be nice, I'm trying to sell him some bumpers.

dont worry i am buying those bumpers(just waiting for the snow to clear to make sure they will fit) and i know how fourm work at first every bodys got to hate ..... it clears out the weak .... i made that intake well i did not bend it but got it off of ebay and cut and drilled it to work ..... my old one was collapsing when ever i opened the throttle so i wanted a solid one and it was cheaper then getting a new rubber one................ and trust me i love a chevy v8 i have a 77 camaro with a hand built 383 stroker making 450hp 500tq but my 924s is the last year they where built and only 2190 where made for the US so i dont want to alter it "to much" just get what i cant out of what i got and put it on a hevy diet it will never be a race car just a fun daily driver


back on topic i know the lexan would get scuffed up easy but i really want a super light lid and would love the light without the wind

I was just givin you a hard time. I meant nothing by it.

its all good buddy and thx for the intake complement thats the first pic of the project i ever posted anywhere
