Yes that is weird. The spacer looks smaller.
Could be that my wheel's hub is from a 944, which have the same splines but could have had a longer spacer(?).

Time for a bit of an update.

During the winter I have:
Mounted the new RS engine mounts in the car
Changed the fuel filter
Changed the hose between the reservoir and powersteering pump
Mounted an RS centerconsole storage bin
Mounted white front indicators
Changed to Osram Nightbreaker front bulbs
Mounted a front strut tower brace
Swapped the speedo for a used one with a working odometer and tripcounter
Swapped out 6 broken instrument bulbs

Last weekend was wash, polish and wax day and tomorrow is the first Porsche club autocross event.

Attended a slalom event with Porsche Club Sweden yesterday.
Weather was quite cold for the end of May, around 10-12 degrees C and -very- windy.
I did two competition runs and looking at the video I realize that I can probably shave some time off my runs by pushing alittle harder in certain parts.
The turnarounds is always a tricky part but downshifting to first feels like it saves me some time in getting the revs up again....

My first run shown in the video was 1 minute 54 seconds, my second run was 1 minute 51 seconds but in that I clipped a 5 second penalty cone...
Here's the link to the video...

I'm in the midst of replacing all my brake discs and pads.
In the rear I have the old two piston calipers, the pads wont slide in easily but needs some mild persuasion by a hammer to go into the caliper. In the front I'm replacing the steel guide plates but there doesn't seem to be a rebuilt kit for the rear calipers ?? Cant find a part number in PET....

Been awhile since I posted in my own thread (yeah I kinda forgot it) Just thought I'd share my front blowers lubrication adventure with you guys. Hopefully it helps someone else. :-)

Was doing some slalom today and sortof ran out of talent quite seriously for the very first time since I bought the car two years ago.



Car is ok, just some grass collected underneath......
