My son bought them directly from a Finnish importer, which happens to be here in my small hometown. The set seen in the picture cost 1100€.Gaz included springs with spring rates we ordered.
Most likely rears can be bought separately.Front shock design is quite similar to Leda, also rears are more or less the same.
Gustaf, do you have that 968 part i asked from you some time ago?

Some changes to brake system. Son's project 951 didn't have ABS from the start. Now we have an opportunity to get the whole ABS package from a 1989 S2 which will put into parts.
Help a friend sell parts from this car and he will give us this ABS system. Son's project car is a 1987 and ABS comes from a 1989 S2. According to WSM some changes were made in 1988. Wonder if this newer system is a direct bolt on to older body. Need advice what parts we need to pick up from this parts car. There are still euro parts which will be available, like rear bumper etc.

We have been looking for a cost effective front brake system for junior's project. Now we have decided to install these clone reds (Big Red size) with Cayenne 330mm disks. A friend of mine will fabricate adapters for this combo. Disks will be either drilled or slotted with CNC machines.

Have been looking for these parts quite long time for my own 16V Turbo build up. Friend gave these yesterday![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Quite easy to make repros from them if needed.

More re-plated parts for son's project.

Also some "left over" parts, like manual window mechanism, we are not going to use in project. Just had all parts hanging around re-plated at the same time, after all it's really cheap to plate stuff

we delivered quite a lot of different parts to powder coater's. More or less all necessary parts are finally getting paint on them. Son is here cleaning intake to be powdercoated. He removed a heat insulating which was added there.

Great family project Olli. I'm envious of such a great learning tool at an early age. Wish I'd done it.
Should be a really good car when finished.

We didn't want to powdercoat the cam tower. Local paint store mixed us a can of heat resistant paint, RAL 7016. Intake is currently on powder coater's to get the same shade of color.Color is much darker in live.

Just out of curiosity, why did you elect to paint the cam tower instead of having it powder coated? The only reason I ask is that it's really only a matter of time before you go to pull the fuel rail and spill some fuel on it. Good powder coating will tolerate fuel, paint may not.
