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.
now very few things are still missing:
- suspension (I am looking for something 3 way adjustable, like JRZ, any advice? )
- gearbox (gears, bearings, lsd)
- wiring harness
- DME Motronic 272 hp (I've bought the 286 hp version, which I don't know if can be used on the 272 ho engine)
I am going to install harder rubber instead of monoball, preferring a bit less precision instead of grater wear of the monobal junctions, I am going to avoid the original genuine Porsche monoball top mounts front like the devil, in that sense, which top monoball top mounts would you recommend?
I am very probably going to swap the RS sways from the silver (going back to M030 sways on that) and if prices don't drop, going to swap also the RS wheels carriers.
On the yellow Limoncella I am going to install the solid sub frame mounts without tilt kit as well.
The body must be built the way it must be to accept the step 2 of gearing and engine.
But as a first step, I am going to make an engine and gearbox rebuild to their original Porsche specs, not to loose the originality of the vehicle.
Due to the traffic regulations here in Italy, I am going to install the bolt in rollbar in order to use the 6 point harness, in that sense, I am looking for the original Porsche belt mounting to be welded to the body: are they still available in Porsche? Does anyone know their part numbers?
I am going with MCS three way canistered setup although you need a math wizard to set it up properly. Wyatt is a big help and can possibly work things out for you. I also tested the Soul X pipe exhaust on the dyno using the stock headers and mufflers. It bumped the power from 272 to 300BHP with a nice sound. I hear the fister III's are a nice addition. Most seat belt manufacturers supply you with the bolt plates to mount the harnesses.
Is there a special procedure to unscrew the fan bolt (24), it is really hard to unscrew, I would like to avoid damaging something
I must disassemble the fun in order to treat the surfaces before painting them.
Is there an how to to make the fan and fan housing exactly like they were originally?
IIRC it is triple square that fits in the center shaft but don't hold me to it and then you need the proper sized wrench IIRC it is 21mm again don't hold me to it but be careful not to strip out the shaft otherwise it will be difficult. Also whatever you do don't place anything between the fan blades to secure the fan otherwise you will damage or crack the blades which is a common mistake.
There is a tool in the tool kit that is supposed to be used but I am assuming tool kits are far from your mind at this point.
Cobalt is right, it's a triple square, and it's small so it won't take a lot of torque. Use lots of penetrating oil on the nut first, and maybe some heat shocks, too. It'll come loose eventually.
together with a wrench.
which one of the 2 you take firm and which one you turn?
do you do it manually or using and impact wrench adding the XZN socket to it?
I am soaking the screw with my favorite unlocking lubricant , then I will follow the advice to give a warm up on the bolt, hoping the dilation will do the rest.
probably it is a long time it is not unscrewed, it was the fan and fan housing of a 964.

is it different to the one of the 993?
964 & 993 are the same.
I make sure the XZN socket is completely seated in the splines, then I grasp the wrench & ratchet handle with both hands and squeeze. This has worked for me on many 993s.

The fans were actually painted a tanish primer or base coat covered by zermatt silver. Eventually the top coating is removed and leaves the tan coloring.
It is hard to say from the pictures but the fan appears to be exhibiting a fair amount of corrosion. You should consider media blasting it and seeing if there is any corrosion damage that may warrant replacing the fan.
Yesterday I was working on the fan trying to remove the bolt and before going to be I realised it was the only moment during the entire day I really didn't think to this damn virus...
The fact everything now in everyon's mind works with this big heavy weight in background...probably having something to dedicate our time will be so meaningfull and helpful to preserve ourselves psicologically.
Now I am looking forward to realise how to disassemble the intermediate shaft...and how to proper clean the servo pulley (probably sand blast?)
I must confess it...i damn like having this intermediare shaft standing up on my wood working desk...a very charming company
What's the way to remove the clips that fix the sprockets? Is there a specific tool?
The servo pulle was totally rost and covered of silt. Even though i dont think i will install the servo, I want to make a rebuild like if i was going to install it
Really hope not to find out the fan has such a crack nor to be the one to make such a damage
