Who is interested in monoball Gt2/EVO-esque inner tie rods?

They can't w/o moving t he A-arm out w/ 993 longitudinals which moves the bottom of the wheel out. From there it depends on the suspension settings, wheel specs and fenders.

Yes, and I know there are a couple 964 builds that have done just that. Maybe if Ira gets enough demand he could do something 964 specific (i.e. 12mm shorter) but for now it appeared that the main market would be 993 especially given the NLA component.

It;s a new year and a new season.
I am already using the 993 longitudinals. Was considering going back to the 964 and using the outboard settings like the turbo. I have mounted tires to the 9.5 & 11 Speedline RSR wheels and plan on using them to make adjustments to the suspension and will order new wheels this year as well. Might as well go for broke.
I have not been able to find any info on if the RSR used the inner or outer settings. I am assuming they used the outer from what I have been able to determine so far.
Has there been any effort to take into account the difference in the different lengths needed between the 964 and 993?
The 993 A arm places the wheel carriers 12.5mm more outboard on each side than on 964. This is due to differences on the longitudinal mounts. As a result the 964 w/ stock longitudinals will need a 12mm shorter tierod.

Yes, it's a joint effort with ERP. Cary is a very talented suspension designer, and great to work with. I came up with the a design, but Cary had the idea and resources to do an close copy of the OEM part, so we went that route. It took a lot longer to do it that way, but I it think it was well worth it.

The 993 A arm places the wheel carriers 12.5mm more outboard on each side than on 964. This is due to differences on the longitudinal mounts. As a result the 964 w/ stock longitudinals will need a 12mm shorter tierod.

On the above you do not need the 993 longs on a 964! Look at my build. If you are doing the ERP outers with gt2 uprights you can ask Cary to supply a shorter outer that will work with the 993 inner design (mine are stock welded 993 pieces, the cup monoballs will work). This is what I did.

List updated per posts and PMs.
I doubt you would notice the difference. If you still have stock steering rack bushings, and original a-arm bushings (inboard) and a-arm ball joints (outboard) I would assess those first.
