The 2nd worst point of the 914 (with the chassis being worst) is the suspension.
With the amount of work you are putting into it, double A arms at both ends wouldn't be much of a streatch.....but that is just my opinion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

With the amount of work you are putting into it, double A arms at both ends wouldn't be much of a streatch.....but that is just my opinion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) You are so true!, hence my first attempt will be to try and fit a Carrera4 front suspension......just to satisfy my curiosity.... If I pull it off to make it fit, i will move on to the rear. Only thing holding me back is that I will have to bring the car in for a full test/inspection which will most likely result in them giving me new plates and the car not being registered as aclassic anymore. That's all because I want to keep it roadlegal. On the other hand, there is a lot of working space, since the car is so old. This gives me a certain degree of freedom.....pffffff laws, laws.... I have also cooked up a plan using lotus elise double wishbone setup.......but for now I'm going to first try the carrera setup... |
