My wife and I took a drive out to the Hardy Creek Trailhead in Molalla, OR over the weekend. I took a few pictures while I was there.




I really need to get my front bumper refinished. Something tells me it's going to be very pricey. (Isn't everything?)

My '99 C2 looking good over the weekend after it's first wash in about 6 months

Those OZ wheels always look so damn good. Are those the Anthracite finish?

Mallone

Yeah, they look fantastic when clean against the black paint. Transformed the car.

sdematt

Might consider getting a set since it'll also pop against the turqoise...

Mallone, are you running the GT3 spec 18x8.5, 18x11 set of OZ’s? What are your tires sizes? Assuming you went 235/40/18 and 295/30/18.

Mallone

These are standard facelift C2 sizes. I think that’s 18x8 and 18x10, 225’s at the front, 265’s at the rear (from memory).

I run a 7MM spacer at the front, 15MM at the rear.

That looks absolutely fantastic... so much so I quoted the picture just to see it again

beautiful! My mom lived out there before she passed away last year.

RobertM525

Sorry to hear that.

Yeah, it's a nice area. Oregon PCA did a drive out there last year, which is how I know of it.

Your setup looks amazing brother. Very nice job with your car. What suspension setup are you running?

C2-996

Mallone- love your setup- I also run the OZ wheels on my black .1 aero. I have the exact same sized Oz wheels, but went a different route on tire setup. I have a 235 front tire and squeezed 295s out of the rear. No spacers with the setup on pss10’s. Your car looks fantastic.

Koni Special Active dampers with Eibach springs. Run a second 10mm spring perch on the rear to get the ride height spot on. Also got a set of Eibach hollow adjustable ARB’s.

A part of me wishes I’d gone with a coil over setup, but I didn’t really need the adjustability and have to say I’ve been impressed with the Koni’s on the road. No firmer than the previous M030 setup at low speed and much better control and damping at high speed. Yet to try it on track though….

Thank you for sharing. I didn’t know Eibach also offered the hollow anti roll bars, labeled under their brand. I did understand GMG offered an Eibach produced version of the hollow bar. Where did you source them?

Mallone

I sourced the ARB's from Design911 in the UK. Were hard to find elsewhere tbh - https://www.design911.co.uk/fu/prod1...996-C2-Eibach/

Eibach part number appears to be E7215-320. Came with a set of Polyurethane ARB bushes, which was a nice touch.
