Default FS > New spindles, Racer's Edge Hubs, 996GT3 Caliper Adapters

This is the setup that I have on my car now.

The spindles are almost brand new with only 4 track days on them. Purchased new from Porsche a few months ago.

Also almost new... purchased a few months ago... Racer's Edge Billet Hubs

And again... almost new... purchase the same time as above... billet caliper adapters to mount 996 GT3 6 piston calipers.

And one again ... billet 996 GT3 14" rotor hub centering rings.

And lastly.... 4 track day old... drilled and slotted 14" GT3 rotors

This is the entire setup to put 996 GT3 front brakes with new spindles and billet hubs on your late offset 951.

$2000 shipped to 48 states.

The only thing you'll need are the calipers and pads.

This is the setup that I run now

Tony,
Your car is looking great. Could you send me pictures of the Brakes that you have for sale. Also if you decide not to use the Kokeln Dual Master set-up I am interested

I can't. I haven't removed it off my car.

This is the stuff that is on my car now which will be removed in about a week or so.

The reason is that I'm going to full and complete 996GT3 entire front suspension $$$

This all this new stuff I just purchased will be not used. :-(

What is your projected hp level and final weight of this new set up? Also, will the 996GT3 suspension bits be heavier than what you have been running? I guess in exchange, you will be that much more competitive especially running in the class you will be running so I am sure everything has its purpose.

Cool project Tony.

The HP is currently 465RWHP/400RWTQ.

The new front setup should be lighter because it's all aluminum vs the aluminum/cast iron factory setup... although I don't know the difference.

We are using the entire front GT3 setup including the factory GT3 control arms.

The purpose is not unsprung weight. It's vastly improved suspension geometry as well as having the roll center corrected.

The side benefits are possibly less unsprung weight and having the GT3 rotors and calipers be a direct fit rather than having to use adapters. Also the GT3 has a much larger wheel bearing.

Tony - how are you gonna correct for bump steer? Raise the rack, or run spacers at the tie rod end?

Cheers,
Mike

Can't raise the rack. Have to use spacers.
