Default Questions about 964 Euro cup doors and front hood

Hi


Have some questions about 964 CUP


Should 964 Euro CUP have lightweight doors?


Aluminum front hood like 964 RS?


Other change in outside bodywork?


Thanks
Fridtjov

Street car doors but of course RS door pulls and panels, hood is aluminum. Rest of outside bodywork is the same as the street car version.

I thought they used the pre-964 doors with the crash bars removed?

It looks like the doors carried their own part numbers;

911 531 006 23 CUP
911 531 005 23 CUP

Probably the left and right doors given the odd and even number difference

Yes, that's right, 005 is left and 006 is right.

There have been discussions about the weight of these doors. They are lighter than the stock doors, not having door beams. But
they are steel, not aluminum, like the RSR's and C4 Lightweights.

Mine look like stock doors minus the crash beam...Nothing fancy about them.
