Danke!
Cheers this was a fun fun lil' project for sure
LOL thanks! Ah they're just super rare in terms of 993TT's but James etc.. has done loads of them in the past. A lot of our friends have them too. Heck I've had a 930 myself which goes way back
hi martin you're right although it will still actually move/pop out even that way. They just turn if as you say it's still not the right geometry. The 10s provide a newer rear drop link... plus the non-factory sway bar changes things in terms of geometry. We actually had Bilstein (US and Germany) here today and we went over this with them (amongst other things
)
Cheers nizer and looks good it does... sadly the wheels are rashed quite badly (which one can't see):
The 13 year old tires were
Not for everyone Allen and I like it stock too... I've ran their competition series stuff on my ole 996TT's to mostly save weight and the like (which the do well).
LOL yes it's always fun navigating in and out of places... Now of course all the 996/997 folks want that same ride height at the fender which one simply cannot do properly/safely anyways
Spanks! Hah... yes I've not really found any good ones. Any ideas? There's so much crap out there (shiny stuff that doesn't fit well from the far east) but if anyone has a good source let us know...
Gert to the rescue. Great source.
Thanks man!
Aye lowered it looked good. Will need to repair them since they were dinged up pretty good
Thanks man and see above- this one is a lil' different and we haven't got the alignment etc.. done so I'll chat with James yet and Bilstein again (we talked with them when they were here today).
Thanks!
looks great, I didn't know that you guys did tuning work on air-cooled 911s. I may have to drop by sometime and check out the facility, I've drooled all over pics and videos from the interwebs featuring cars that come out of your shop. Plus, the fact that you're fairly local is the icing on the cake.
rlme, yeah you're right. The bottom lock ring should technically be installed under the swaybar mount collar. If no then you run the risk of the collar rotating under stress and popping out the end-link. Doesn't happen often, especially if your geometry is set properly but that's why that 3rd ring is there.

Mine is low too, that is why I installed Gert's protection bar...

Car looks amazing, Black 993 turbo for sure on my bucket list. I'll have to say it too, but I like the stock wheels on this ride. Coming from 18x13 18x10 on my 993, the stockies do your car good.

My pleasure
No worries at all and the stockers were beat up pretty good so once they're re-done it's an option
We used the Bilstein PSS10s... if you want a set just email alex@sharkwerks.com
I do like them too!
