Awesome thread with lots of good info.

So if you are running GT3 brakes and want to run at say cup car ride height (and maintain correct geometry) is the GT3RS uprights the best option?

Or is there a better (able to run lower) upright that will work with GT3 brakes?

Oh yeah those are sex! Thanks for the pictures and info. Pretty sure that is what I will be slapping on my car, unless someone can convince me there are better uprights for a 996 with GT3 brakes.

What about the uprights from the 997 GT3, 997 RS and 997 cup?

If you are looking simply to put GT3 brakes on a C2 996, Rudtners (por29 on RL) sells an adaptor kit including new machined GT3 calipers

Oh thanks, but really looking for cup car height with proper geometry. Already have GT3 brakes and GT3 uprights. Going to sell the GT3 uprights and get 996 RS ones, but still wondering if there is a better upright.

Anyone know?
