Yeah, his is mounted on shocks. Like I said though it isn't meant to be.

 

Okay, now is $150 as good a deal as I'm thinking? I'm guessing lights will be sort of expensive.

The turbo front is only about $1000, and if this is over $500, I may as well go with the turbo front.

 

$150 seems to be the going price -- that's what I recently paid for one recently, but I have yet to bother installing it (need to get lighting, new shocks, and get it painted). I picked it up on a whim, figuring I can probably sell it for around the same price. There's a guy on eBay selling the lights right now -- no wiring, or bulbs, just the driving light lenses. I heard he somehow ended up with a huge pile of them in the states.

 

Well, I told him to go ahead and sell the euro bumper - it's in the classifieds. I need the valance panel more than the bumper itself. I'll probably go for the turbo front eventually - for now, I"m not sure.
I still want to do a GT-Racing 1 piece front clip, but I'm not sure about doing that either.

 

I have the gt racing rear bumper that is similar to the euro rear bumper in the length it sticks out. How do i mount that? Could I use shorter front shocks from another 951 for the back? Or do I have to shorten the back shocks? If so, how? Thanks

 

...sorry for the highjack...

 

I believe that one is meant to be mounted on the stock shocks without modification.

 

RMills,
If it's aluminum, than I bet (99% sure) that it's the M058 bumper.
Acquiring lights will be nearly impossible - ask me how I know. I spent two months, and my budget was not a limitation (insurance reimbursement). I ended up sourcing them from a US soldier in Germany who was willing to go to a junk yard for me... not the easiest source!

It's a nice bumper though.

 

Thanks X-ray! Looks like I may be going turbo!!
I really need the header panel (hopefully 931) more than a bumper, so I may just switch to a turbo front and go with that. I found one, I just need to wait for the funding to come in.
anyone want to aponsor me in my ongoing restoration?

 

I can't wait to see pics! I love front end modifications to these cars; everything else is perfect (in my opinion) so the front end needs some attention on NAs.

 

The 931 header panel won't work with a turbo nose. Not without a lot of bodywork.

 

OH, I know. I'm saying I'm going to do one of those 2 things. I'll get a 931-type header panel if I get the turbo front. I really like the LIndsey Racing stage V header - cool and good price.

Does anyone know if the gtracing euro bumper looks like the one on the car at the begining of this thread?

 

Has anyone ever heard of speedzekeracing parts? I think they just sell GT-Racing parts and AIR parts, but I'm not sure. The site is speedzekeracing.com

The 951 splitter part # is AI-944-xxxx. This makes me think it's the AIR splitter. They have a 924 GT front end, 951 fronts, and numurous others that they claim you need no mods to install. The fit doesn't look the best from their pictures.

 

Hey, I thought once about someday going the turbo/S2 route for the front too, but then I noticed that the very front part of the fender seems to be different as well. Wouldn't one have to also change the fenders to convert to a turbo/S2 nose? Sorry for getting a little off track.

Back on track, I do agree that the euro bumper look a lot better. Pity about the difficulty in sourcing the lights though.

Thanks,

Allan
