Ok I am just gonna throw this out there and see what info I get back...
I have a 1992 America Roadster and it is classified as a 964 although to my knowledge all parts except the non turbo motor are 965. This was spurred up because I am looking to lower the vehicle and I believe I already have the 965 tubo springs and I figure that I will need to spec out the next set of springs and dampers for a 965 fitment and not a 964... teach me please.

The specific parts för the 964 Turbo is named 965.xxx.xxx.xx.

The 965 does not exist although the number is commonly associated with the 964 turbo.

Springs and shocks (dampers as you call them) depend on your desire. You can use any of the options on your car if you decide you want a softer ride you can go with eibachs or H&R greens although I wouldn't recommend it. If you like stiffer the H&R reds would be better suited or you can go with K&W, H&R club sport, I believe Elephant racing is coming out with a new system and there are many other choices. The only difference in what can be used is the 93-94 turbo requires front struts as used on the 993TT since they use a different sized bolt for the top of the two used to mount to the carrier but a good mechanic can modify any of the other equipment to work on a 94 3.6 T if needed.

Damn what a car you guys have. I've always wanted a America Roadster and a RS America.

So that clears that up, 965 is just a "slang" term used for the turbo borrowed from part numbers; they are all 964's be it turbo look, turbo, carrara 2, and so on. Thanks for the info.

Thanks 4re308, I feel very blessed to be fortunate enough to enjoy this Porsche.
