Default Bilstein b16 fitment

hello,

I have won a bilstein b16 set, but bilstein told me they could only deliver for a 994 turbo, does anybody now if these will fit on a normale 944 type 1

Thanks,

Nope, you better give them to me...I'll even pay shipping.

Just kidding

They should work. I think you need to modify the lower mounting holes a little to fix the camber issue, but it's not a big project.

P.S. How did you win them? I'd love to "win" a set too...

at the and of the racing season the organization held a lottery, this was the second price, the first was a 5000,- coupon for BBS rims

but the only problem could be that i need to drill the holes out and make them bigger ?

Well congratulations! Awesome score.

Yes, that should be all. I'm sure other members will chime in that have done the swap.

it was not a price specific for a 944 or 951, it was just a set of b16, and when we asked he only had them for a 951, nice to hear that you are happy with the set.
