Another set of wheels...
Hi all...
Been a while. I recently bought a 993 C4S & as you can imagine I've spent most of my free (on line and off) time messing around with that.
This evening was the first time I've been able to drive one right after the other & I'm amazed at how much faster the 951 is! Granted, I have some nice modifications on the 951 and the 993's engine is stock, but the sheer speed on boost is intoxicating. Don't get me wrong, the 993 is a truly visceral & classy driving experience and a highly evolved example of the air cooled 911; it just isn't as fast. Perhaps I need to find a 993tt!
Anyway, I bought a nice set of Champion RG5's for the 951 last weekend - just for a change:
I've been so busy lately that I have not had time to fit a long list of mods that I've bought - big blacks & 993tt rotors / euro fogs / 968 mirrors & handles / euro rear bumper...
Hope to have all done soon - especially now that I know I'll be taking the 951 on any "fast road" PCA gatherings!
These really are awesome cars.

Need bigger brakes under such revealing wheels haha.
They look good though.
They come up for sale here and there on the GT3 forums.

They look very nice and suit the car beautifully. Once the mirrors AND the Euro rear bumper go on it will look amazing. I've been in a 993 before and it was pretty quick but in a more linear fashion. Perhaps you need to drive your avatar??
Still a great car though...but I'd love to own both too.

The 993 is a superb car & I love it - it's just different. And slower.

Man those 2nd hats look very big, but I think we went through all this before didn't we? What year model and offsets do you have again Nick?
