He uses ERP suspension including the rear A-arms
alternatively you can replace the trailing leg bush w/ one from Elephant or do what I did uses an oe RSR one

RSR rear A -arm


Rennline KT & camber arms


RSR A-arm, Rennline KT & Camber, Tarett Toe all w/ eccentric locks and boots

Can't wait to see more! Jeff is amazing to deal with and Rothsport is the Ritz Carlton of Porsche race shops. His knowledge, attention to detail and customer service exceeded my expectations.

Thanks for the comments guys. The car has a sunroof but is rear wiper delete.. =) my 964 is sunroof delete but has a wiper- go figure.

Right now not much to update on. The engine and gearbox are crated and waiting for shipment to Rothsport. Should have more photos in the next few weeks.

That c2s is coming along nicely. Great subtle mods. Love that you are converting into a 3.8!

Are you able to do a short comparison suspensionwise before/after modifications?
Just by corner balancing, installing ERP bumpsteer kit and tweaking the angles on mine, it transformed the car - so it would be interesting to hear how much the mods have transformed your c2s from what used to be to now.

Keep up the good work.
Great thread, car and mods ��
