Uncle Report post Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) So once more into the breach comrades...Already Haltech EFI converted 3.6 varioram 964 motor with ported heads, 993 RS cams,ARP stud everything. Fabspeed headers, 12xLS1 coils etc etc, G50 gearbox, 996tt brakes.Inside is 964 everything including dash and Porsche script seats. Plans are another custom turbo set up but this time twin turbo, because if one is good two should be better right? I picked these up for it today. For me they are THE quintessential wheel. They are genuine 1991 date stamped non denloc RUF Speedline. Will post some more pics when I get the car home.

Uncle Report post Posted March 9, 2016 86 I think. If I’m honest I can’t remember lol. The really funny part is I’d been given the green light to buy the Grey Ferrari F360 and yet my bucket list OCD stopped me as this car is as you know a fish that once got away from me. Italian ladies can wait. 2 901er and clutch-monkey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uncle Report post Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) Cheers Gents. Should be a bit of fun. Turbo conversion might take a little while tho as I’v got a few kilos of fish in the pan right now.Not really apples for apples Sam. Old motor was a big single turbo new motor will be 2 small twins. Mmmm twins. Edited March 10, 2016 by Uncle 1 chris_f reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chris_f Report post Posted March 12, 2016 The black wheels looked good on the car... but the RUF's are hard to go past. Eager to see how this one turns out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Report post Posted March 14, 2016 I don’t think they quite work. 2 problems, they don’t really fit over my front brakes and as much as I love RUF wheels I’m not sure they 100% work on this car ; / 1 clutch-monkey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coastr Report post Posted March 14, 2016 Maybe they need a different colour? Bit of photoshopping? What about a gold/bronze colour? Or just straight up gloss black with a thin red stripe around the edge? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Report post Posted March 14, 2016 Dunno. I’ll sleep on it. I’ve already had 4 sms’s and a P.M asking if I want to sell lol. 2 GUT and clutch-monkey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OZ930 Report post Posted March 14, 2016 Is it an inside diameter problem or a spacer problem ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OZ930 Report post Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) I.DJuuuust short. like .05mm.Where is that file...Assuming it is a tapered inside rim, would a 3mm spacer give you the clearance. I have a couple if you would like to try. Edited March 14, 2016 by OZ930 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
