OK, you asked for it. OT 9m Project thread coming soon to a 993 forum near you...

...although I doubt that this one will be anywhere near as popular as the 9m93Speedster S. See you soon.

More to come soon, I promise:
1. KW's are supposed to arrive this week
2. GM has finally decided a plan with the wheels & colour
3. MC is working on a solution to fit central locking motors into the doors (apparently deleted option for the 964 Speedster) so we can then final fit the door panels.
4. Andy is nearly finished with the seats
5. Armourfend (stone chip protection) will be applied soon to the front end
So, lots of photos to follow, don't worry.

As long as they're marked Porsche and not Vespa, we'll be ok then!

Default Going Down.....

Here's Richard in 9m Technic pulling off the old struts and fitting the new KW's. Not much more to say, really. Unfortunately shop workload meant that we could not finish the job before close of play, so the ride height set, cornerweighting and wheel alignment will have to wait until next week.

... although I did manage to take a couple of shots of some new, shiny things that appear to have been fitted.

Hi there,

just was made aware of this thread and must admit I am in awe of this excellent craftsmanship.

Kudos to everyone involved.

Is there going to be a cronological thread somewhere without all the comments that is just concentrating on the build?

Hell, I would even contemplate buying a book about it if you where ever going to do one?

In regards to the wheels my prefrence would be Cup II in 17" or 18" RUF Speedlines like I am running on my replica.

But than again I would have picked a Speedgelb paint job but am sure you are going to pick something nice for wheels, as well.

Best regards from down under and keep them pictures (and maybe a Youtube video?) coming

Martin
