We have also managed to find a nice set of 16" D90 wheels courtesy of my mate Simon at Porschapart. Apparently they had been freshly refurbished but left on a 944 turbo which has been stood for quite some time to the point where the tyres were completely perished, hence the tyres are off and the wheels are ready for a quick flat down and face repaint in silver. Naturally with these on the car it will look more like a C4 Lightweight than RS which will also suit the original flag mirrors I guess?
Makes a nice change I reckon, I always like D90's anyway

The hub nuts are paired on the RS, having a thinner locknut on the outside clamping down onto the tapered outer of the thicker inner nut. The torque of the inner nut is the same as stock, the outer locknut is much less.

Realistically speaking what do you think the cost would be to convert c4 into c2? I'm looking at picking up a 964 and seems like I am finding c4's.

We should be carrying out the C2 conversion sometime in the next couple of weeks, I'll post details and likely costs when it's done.

A few potential horror stories found underneath, including corroded 4wd hydraulics and the worst condition clutch flexible pipe that I could possibly be still holding fluid. How this one slipped by the last few specialist inspection services is beyond me. 
The front hub nuts have been removed ready to pull the diff and front driveshafts, discs are in decent condition but will be replaced with larger in due course. Front & rear ARB and droplinks will also be found in the spares bin soon.

Differential coming out late this afternoon. It put up a fight when the over-tightened drive shaft bolts rounded off and needed the intervention of a hammer and chisel to remove them but fortunately Robin managed to miss his thumb, hit the chisel and out they came ....
