Default I managed to buy new RS/EVO uprights for $900

on E-Bay.

I also found new outer GT2 tie rods there as well for $225.00, I have already done the pin mod to the inner half so I only needed the outer half.

I really look forward to the updates. I plan to do the solid rear mounts at the same time.

It was a EBAY seller that had an extra set from a car build he was doing. He purchased a package of parts and ended up with 2 sets. It was not a business or anything like that. I just got lucky.

The tie rods were an even better deal in my opinion. By doing the pin mod I was looking at just needing the outer half. Someone else on EBAY bought a new assembly and used only the inner half with ERP outers. I got the OEM outers from him for $225.

They are $326 per side new from Sunset Porsche. Everyone else is ripping you off.

I got 2 uprights AND bearings for $800 a few weeks ago. RS Tie rods (complete) were $400

I just got a price for uprights here, they where about 800 USD EACH (part no :993-341-157-81) ! ! !
The supercup tie rods where about 900 for each side !!!! (part no 993-347-031-80)
Needless to say I stopped thinking about that upgrade when i saw the prices.

Sick deal! Did it include bearings? Akerlie, I think Carnewal has these for about $1800.

Correction. I paid $363 per side from Sunset Porsche.

Alltogether this should cost you $1200 for everything purchased new from a Porsche dealer. (except speed sensors...if you need them ($30?)

WOW....How come you seem to have gotten a better price than I have ever heard?

Cheapest I found was $1,200 a set for the uprights.

I have Rennline solid sides which were a quick and dirty install. They are made locally too. Rennline is a site sponsor and a bunch of nice guys too.

Sunset is the only place selling OE parts without gouging people. Everything there is priced that way. Everything on my car came from those guys. I stopped comparing pricing cuz it's a waste of time.

Nicest guys in the world as well. No affiliation, etc..
