new belly pan was created by 87 Shark
I bought my car in January and ii did not have the belly pan . I now know how important it is after reading several posts in various forums. I have ordered a new alumnum pan. I know about the ductsto divert air to cool the motor mounts. I'll cross that bridge when the new pan arrives.
My question is that it appears that the car came with 2 belly pans: afront and a rear pan. Is the new pan from 928 motorsports or 928 intl. just the front pan or both pans incorporated into one? If it is just the front pan do they make an al. rear pan?

I suspect it is just the front pan, as it is the one more commonly damaged or lost. If you ask them, you can let us know :)

I guess I should put the pans back on my GT then, huh?

If it's the ~$300-350 version, it's just the front/engine pan. I just got the one from 928 Spec last week. It has holes to allow the engine belly pan to connect to the 'rear' (more like middle) belly pan.

I've been driving around here(home) without the belly pan but have read about the potential hazards of driving long distances without the pan installed. Will have to do without the back one for now. Planned trip to Boston shark party in Sept. is to far to drive without the pan. I will call and ask once the pan is delivered.

928 racer if you don't want it I'm sure I can find a home for it.

I definitely want them, thanks for the offer though :D

They came off because of the oil leak, that seem to come up after I had the dual disk clutch upgrade done... :mad:

The oil leak is resolved now though, had the rear main seal replace, and replaced the oil soaked clutch parts too.

I have been tempted to ugrade to the x-pipe, but going to high performance cats is costly. Mass. has been picky about inspections in the past, but it is getting older....

I just have been too lazy to put them back on, figuring as soon as I do there will be a reason to take them off. My driving is just around town for the most part.
