Very nice looking Carrera.

Interesting look with the 993 style (basket handle) 3rd brake light and 993 style wheels.....don't recall seeing those before on a 964.

I'm guessing that clear lenses in the front are a future mod?

GT-three

no sure if i really like it,but to remove it now i would have 2 holes on the rear deck lid.

GT-three

actually theres a couple of things to do to bring the car up to par before i do any upgrades.HVAC needs attention,pass window not working,need allignment.then i will upgrade suspension.It look like a 4x4 to me now.

Maybe contact Eric at www.bumperplugs.com (rennlist sponsor and great guy).
He might be able to suggest something to cover up the 2 holes if you remove the 3rd brake light?

GT-three

it was a thought already to get the bumber plugs painted white,but i will probably get a fixed wing maybe an rs wing with the deck lid.great minds think alike

GT-three

ITC do you track the 92 cup car?

ltc

Yes, I do.
Because if I were to drive it down the street, I'm sure I would attact a little bit of police 'attention'
(not really street legal ....Porsche Motorsport VIN, no license plate...but it does have catalytic converters!)

GT-three

absolutly stunnng.thats what my 964 wants to be when shes all grown up.actually i just sold my G class racecar 82 911sc.i bought this 964 with intentions of building a E or D class club racer.i bought a GT3 last year for DEs.but still love the 964 series,let the fun begin with the upgrades.

M220 is LSD (see my VIN sticker below) and M224 is ABD (virtual-but-not-really LSD). With ABD if one wheel is spinning more than the other than the brakes are applied to that wheel, its basically traction control if combined with engine braking -- ASR. LSD will actually transfer torque to the slower/non-spinning wheel (a very simplified explanation).

220 is the code for the Limited Slip Differential.

If it is any consolation, GT-three, neither of my 2 ex-RS America's had LSD. Curiously, my 993 does.

I've never understood why Porsche charged nearly $1000 for LSD (or $130 for floor mats) on a 911, when those items are standard on every Mustang GT and Corvette. I suppose the answer is "Because they can"!
