Default WTB: 997 CUP ABS system, paddleshift system, Nordschleife shocks

As the title says; need ABS and paddleshift systems and Nordschleife shocks for 997 CUP.
We are outfitting my '09 for VLN endurance races on the Nürburgring.

Thanks!

Those prices for the Bosch ABS and the paddle shift system are crazy for used system IMHO. You can get them cheaper new.

But thanks for finding those in any case. =)

I have 2 second hand KMP paddle shift units available from NZ.

Looking for around €4000 plus shipping each for them.

Hi Juha,

I have :
* a set of 0 hour 997 shocks + springs
* a set of 0 hours 996 2-ways shocks (that fit the 997) + springs
No Nordscheife valving

Thanks!

But I need the longer shocks for Nordschleife. It is not only the valving. With the original shocks the suspension travel is too short for Nordschleife.

You are welcome!

Here's a photo showing why you need longer suspension travel. Taken last saturday at the 4h VLN race. Mind you I had less than half of the horsepower in the BMW vs. my CUP

I may be wrong here, but I thought the cup shocks all(996 and 997) had the same travel with only differences being shock clevis length. That being the case, their are rear shock spacers you can get to raise the care, but that again will not add shock travel. If you want more travel you may have to go outside the cup factory parts if legal.

I think you are wrong.

When talking about VLN or Nordschleife shocks, everyone refers to them as the "longer shocks".

These 997 GT3 Cup Nordschleifen - suspensions are different from the Porsche series:


Longer rebound
Other pull pressure stage adjustment
Other spring rates

Was this a suspension part listed in the manual or a special suspension setup listed elsewhere?
