So I bought 2 sets with wrong hardness, I must send them back.
Why did you use the ERP for the toe link? for easier setting and more precision?
I found one of my toe arm ball joint boots was ripped and as a consequence the ball joint was not in good shape. I was able to get a pair of new erp links for the same price so decided to do that.
As for the front sport bushings they are 75 shore... I spoke with prekom wondering if had a set that was mixed up and they said what I had was correct and by design.

I had the same doubt, why front 75 shore and rear 85? But I remember that Bill Verburg told not all the bushing on the rear rs links were of harder rubber... I must go check it.
If one goes for harder rubber on the links where it should be normal, maybe it would be better to go with monoballs in place of the harder rubber bushings?
the car must be a bit more track orented then the silver one, so maybe having 2 links of 5 on monoballs and adjustable could make sense.
thank you Kan
Another question, which one of these two gearbox bushings is the harder one?
the one on the left must be the RS Bushing, the one on the right side it was sold as RS bushing as well...but they look very different
The right appears to be a prekom shore 85 one? Given it has more "rubber", I would think it is stiffer than the OE one on left as one of the hacks jdm guys do is fill the spaces/openings in the mount with liquid PU to a similar effect the function first PU insert does. I ended up going with a FDM semi solid mount as I have a awd transmission.
Good morning RLers,
can anyone indicate me the Porsche codes or where to find the belt plates (where to attach the 6 points belts) originally installed on the 964/993 CUP?
On FVD I found these that are offered by Schroth, but is there still a possibility to buy the genuine Porsche plates?
Today we spent some time preparing the car to be water blasted.
removed the rear windshield, the rear left side glass, we saw there is a layer of very lucid white under the yellow paint and that the pastel lime (or summer) yellow was originally painted using the pastel colour, without putting the last layer of transparent.
Rear windshield and rear side glass removed
Here is a detail of what lays under the black profile that refines the base of the rear side glass
Having a look around while talking with friends about the specification of the 993 Turbo S, I came accross this specific detail here on RL, the reinforcement to the suspension top mount
Considering I have to rebuild the body, would it be a good idea to upgrade the car adding this reinforcement?
I run some heavy springs and track my 964 which is the same tub essentially up front and have never had any issues. Although if you are going to do it now would be the time. I would wait and see what condition everything is in first and then decide. I am assuming you will be seam welding the tub to RS spec's?

This is my first option, but is there a place where to find details/schemes of the RS body spec's?
Few minutes ago I found for sale on the Internet this yellow ‘95 porsche 993 turbo with X50 430 ps kit from factory, and I am quite sure this couldn’t be pastel yellow, since it was available starting from m.y. 97, so this might be the only other one “limonengelb” 993 ever produced, the big sister of limoncella...I asked the seller if he can make a picture of the paint code sticker inside the luggage compartment, let’s see
Great colour. Reminds me of VW's "Jasmin Yellow" from the early/mid 90's. Cool project!
thank you very much Cobalt,
I was asking myself if there is the possibility to recover the information regarding CUP spec body reinforcements and if it is recommendable to make such changes while not installing a full welded cage.
