911 Forum Recommendations

#1 Post by Rick Wall »

Like some other 356 owners, I also own a 911. I would like to find a forum for air cooled 911s that hopefully compares with the quality of the 356 Registry forum.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Rick

Jim, thanks for your reply.
your suggestion looks like a great forum, but looks like it is dedicated to 911 cars through 1973. Perhaps I should have mentioned that my car is a 1977.
thanks, Rick

I am pretty confidant you will not find a Forum as good a this one.
Other Forums have too many keyboard warriors.......
Good luck with your search.

Have you looked at Rennlist, subscribe for $17.95 to get full access. There is also a daily digest for each forum that you subscribe to. I have found the 993 forum to be equal to the 356Registry, also the classifieds are huge, but take a while to search daily. https://rennlist.com/forums/911-forum-56/

Jim, Bill and Steve,
Thanks for your recommendations, I will start using the sites.

John,
I agree that the 356 Registry Forum is a great one. The member advice was extremely helpful when I refurbished my coupe. Many helpful people willing to share their knowledge.

Thanks,
Rick

Language barrier aside, you might like to try a foreign forum or two...

https://911uk.com and http://www.ddk-online.com/phpBB2/index.php are both excellent as long you don't have too much trouble with your potato potato and tomato tomato.

+1 for pelican. Some real helpful folks on there. I didnt know anything about Fuel injections and once i bought gages, and their help, i was able to diagnose problems and repair them. To be fair, there are a lot of unrelated topics but you can choose not to read them. I have a 78 SC as well as a 60 roadster

Mike
Thanks for the 911UK suggestion. I have spent quite a bit of time in England, so I'm prepared for the potato or potato and tomato or tomato experience.

Brock,
Glad to hear that Pelican has been helpful for your 911. I will check their forum. Thanks.

Other than forums, if you don't already have it in your library, Wayne Dempsey's 101 Projects For Your 911 is an excellent read.

I agree.

I am also a member of Pelican and the Early 911S Registry. You should look at all of them.
