I am pretty positive my black ones are powdercoated or anodized aluminum. If I think of it, I'll check when I get home.

Maybe your Ebay one is a fake

OK, I'm a newbie on these braces. Is this somehting for the track cars only or would a weekend thrill seeker on public roads beneift?

My e-bay one is a replica if the ones used on the Cup cars. Except that it is holey and made from billet rather than the factory aluminum castings.

All the black ones I've seen are on the 964RS & 964Cup and 993RS street, the aluminum versions I have seen were all on 993 GT2 993RS/CS and 993 Cup, I never noticed before but the black ones appear to be a painted steel assembly, you can see the welds in some of the close ups.

Please do throw a magnet on one

What were the non-adjustable Matter ones supplied on?

I'll try to do that this afternoon.

Bill Verburg

Not sure what you mean by 'non-adjustable Matter ones'

bart1

Matter Design - think it came on GT2s (and I was thinking Cups).

No, factory car I've ever seen had one of those


if you go to the link I posted above there is quite a bit of info on stock ones

I was wrong - the ends are steel. The unit is very light, though.

That Matter one is at least commonly believed to have come on GT2s.

I had a sec and went to your link, but that page was all about wheels.

Bill Verburg

thanks!

No, GT2 street used the same one as on the 964RS street and 964RS/Cup, w/ the bblack steel uprights
993GT2


993GT2 evo(race) use the same one as on the 993RS/CS w/ cast aluminum risers

part # 964.343.042.00>R< only available from the motorsports department

keep looking, go to the last page

The one from 911chips.com is very similar to the RS piece for about $195. Thats what I have and I'm happy with it.l

I have one of the Matter ones at home and I think it has a Porsche p/n on it so I'll check.

sorry Bill, missed this... I thought it was steel.
maybe not... but it is on the way to it's new owner now.

For proof

Bill Verburg

Just to wrap this up, I guess that the one piece Matter brace was used on Gt2 Evo(though not listed in the parts book)

Thanks to Bart for looking it up
