New suspension
 
Its all done, and its well better!
The car drives better, harder, sticks to the road better.
Inspires confidence. :)

Billstein shockers, eibach springs, poly bushes all round, and the Cosmo racing strut brace.

Allso had all the brake lines changed, solid and flexi,s.

The White Flash handles right! + the brakes feel a lot srtonger!

Ill post pics tomoz.
I think the car sits slightly higher than before.
But works a hundred times better!

The lower the better???

Mayb not?

There is something hot about a dirty 964 :) Shows that it has been used as designed. Not being rude about the state of your car, mine looks the same right now. Guess I will be freezing my nuts off washing it this weekend.

Love the black on white look.

That's what I like about Rennlist... its full of drivers with drivers' cars.

I'm saving my nickels for a suspension overhaul. Congrats on the upgrade!

3hrs fuel in £25 - you're just not trying hard enough :icon107:
My record is £75 in 1hr 15mins in Europe :evilgrin:

Sal 965 11-30-2007 06:15 PM

Forgot to add - great set up and pics :thumbup:

What strut brace is that? Is it a 9M special or something?

Damn, that must have been going some, I've never dropped below 10 gals for 100 track miles, obviously need to try harder or an autobahn :burnout:

Russ, looking good!! Now you've got me thinking about a nice carrera script (in black) for mine..............

Superunknown 12-02-2007 12:06 PM

Looks good. Mines booked in to have the Bilsteins, poly bushes and Green H&R's installed in 10 days.

Can't bloody wait now!

Please tell me it is worth the cash (and wait).......

964russ 12-03-2007 02:09 PM

Them wheels are very nice. But ill have to wait, the cash has dried up.

"boxsey" the strut brace is from canada. Its a copy of a porsche motorsport part, or so ive been told.
Even with importing cost less than buying in the UK.

"james" its the most money ive put into a car in one go, so iam still a little stunned! But it does work right and it will never need doin again. The car was crying out for new suspension.
