don´t think vented in the rear is necesary with the incredibloe 80PS 1700 engine (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

But in the near future i am planning a six conversion (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

Is it just me or is that an odd keyboard (in the backround of the calipers). It don't look like mine. Apparently in Germany they have a slightly different layout of the characters.


Good looking parts, and congratulations on your new nuts.

the major difference should be changed z and y.

you surely doesn´t have ö ü ä. Don´t know whats on theire place on english keyboards.

But i like that keyboard. It´s a desktoop version with laptop keys.

Michelko,

Do you have to have special approval from vehicle registration to do this conversion in Germany?

How do you plan to do the rear? Which parts are you going to use?

Normaly you have to registrate and proof the conversiion by the German "TÜV".

They sign the conversion into the cars documents.

But whats about this: The Car is now round about 35 Years old, no one nows how the car left the factory (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Tell all people it is originaly equiped with that nice Fuchs wheels. Is this a plan?

For the rear setup i am using the special 914/6 stub axles(reproduction from Mittelmotor) with 911 hubs, brake disks and the original 914/4 calipers.

Will post pics of the setup later.
