Bilstein PSS10s, short shift, RS mounts, RS strutt brace and 18s.Have had her for four years in March and put about 33Kms on her. I think she's a keeper!

Now on Vic plates.A very pfa stretch of roadPreviously, my first P car 964 C2, if only I could buy that again for $51k that I paid late 2013.....this is the day I picked it up and drove to Ceva to ship it to Melbourne.

Blue964 Posted 2February, 2016 Report Share Posted 2February, 2016 I like the stance on thatThanks. Eibach springs and Koni adjustables. Sitting a fraction lower than RS ride height. With the shitty roads we have around Sydney the front tends to sit a bit too low so have to be careful driving around the inner city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFX Posted 2February, 2016 Report Share Posted 2February, 2016 love the rusty eyes when is completion date?The conjunctivitis will have cleared up by the time it is back on the road. I am hoping to have it done in a few months, but it depends on whether I can find a 3.2 to put into it. The alternative is to rebuild the 2.7, but that is going to take a lot more time. Here are some more pics of my Cayman S which has moved on. It had a Remus exhaust and was lowered 20mm with 19's. Looked gorgeous, but it was a bit loud and impractical as a daily driver.

StevepGT3 Posted 3February, 2016 Report Share Posted 3February, 2016 are you saying that this was an option for 996GT3? Never knew that--you learn something new every dayNo, as I have no idea, but as the body at the front looks the same I doubt it would be too hard to fit.

poli84 Posted 3February, 2016 Report Share Posted 3February, 2016 Thanks. Eibach springs and Koni adjustables. Sitting a fraction lower than RS ride height. With the shitty roads we have around Sydney the front tends to sit a bit too low so have to be careful driving around the inner cityI think mine needs to come down just a tad lower than RS height too.

Blue964 Posted 3February, 2016 Report Share Posted 3February, 2016 I think mine needs to come down just a tad lower than RS height too. Yours looks bang on!I was probably boardering on OCD about getting the ride height set at a level that was visually appealing to me. Being a big fan of the slammed 964 look (yes I know that is not to everyone's taste) I had many heated debates with the suspension guys--I wanted lower and they kept telling me I was an idiot for wanting to go lower. In the end I think the suspension guys were right in calling me an idiot--I really like the right height now and in retrospect anything lower would have suggested I was on drugs.

Wouldn't mind seeing how far off I am and where I can come down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
